4yo repeats something endlessly (self.Daddit)

Help me out Dads. My 4 year old boy has an annoying habit of repeating something indefinitely until someone acknowledges what he said. For instance, we're watching Groot videos and I called him "little guy" and my kid said "he gets big though" like 20 times before I ended it by saying "yep totally". I usually don't let him go so long but I wanted to see if he'd give it up.

Is this a thing with kids? Do they grow out of it?

Mine graduated from doing that to just ignoring me, so now I find myself saying the samething 20 times in a row.

The shift is so swift, isn't it?
