Yes, "Don't erupt when I am talking" is correct. That is three out of four - only one more for the win.

I will accept that. The official answer was ‘cool’ as in be a cool mom, but chill is close enough for me.
YOU ARE THE WINNER! Congratulations!

NEW RIDDLE

I'm a proper noun that's used as a common one.
I (the thing, not the word) have my origins in aviation.
My name is Italian.
I'm not safe for kids.

It's something most of us consider soothing or relaxing, @diana lowery, @DATo, @Stephanie Runyon.
Though my name is Italian, I was born in California.

Excellent riddle! I have a feeling it is going to be one of those "Oh No! I should have known that!" moments when I find out, but for now I am completely baffled.
