Where does the word kids come from?meaning children.The only obvious thing i can think of is baby goats.Anyone know?

'Kid' was slang for 'child' as long ago as the 1500s, but by the 19th century it had become common in everyday polite speech. It probably did come from the young goat, as you suggest.

Nowadays they are often caled f*rts, because many people find their own almost bearable.
