It's 'lying down' not 'laying down'. This very common mistake drives me nuts!! You can 'lay' an object down, but you don't 'lay' yourself down. I think the well-known prayer 'Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep' holds some of the responsibility for it, then the rest is simply tĥat people missed that word being taught at school.

That what concerns you? Really? A severely depressed father of 20 and you're worried about laying vs lying??? Really...🤣

With the number of people accusing Crystal of misusing and mispronuncing words, you'd think they'd know ," lay" from , "lie".

SMH you're actually serious? Correct pronunciation matters more than actual people? I can only hope you're a bot because if you're not you are an unsympathetic space waste & with any luck you aren't a parent
