Message:   Bryan,

I don't recall heading "frempe", but I do recall frappé which was a term used to explain why a child might be born with physical defects. The usual explanation was that the mother-to-be had seen some sight that scared her or cause a strong reaction. My mother had a half-brother who suffered from cerebral palsy and people said that the mother had been scared by frog. It was even said that if she had visited a traiteur prior to the birth the child would have not had the affliction.
