NO! Ruthin, like most precious children doesn’t listen properly to people. I think her Mum is correcting her for her own sanity as much as for anyone else.
It’s a listening method. Repeat what the other says to show that you hear them. I use the word correctly in a sentence so as to not sound like a know-it-all.

Because she is correcting the English people, I used to do the same with my kids.

Maybe her mother isn’t the one with the hearing problem.

I think I see Candy Land (last panel). I recognize the shape of the path.

Fossil Arm sounds exactly the same as False Alarm. How could Ruthie’s mom tell them apart?

Being a Mom is also about teaching the use of language – and not just swear words. (I wish I were kidding.)
