She cannot call a pony a horse.
At our house we live on a large farm, and have three horses and two pony’s. My mother just moved in with us, and keeps telling people we have five horses. We don’t. I keep trying to tell her a pony is not a horse but she is deaf to it. How do I get her to stop telling people we have five horses?
You're gonna say that I'm on a high horse
But I think that my horse
Is regular-sized
Didja ever think that maybe
You're on a pony
Going in circles on a carousel ride

You need to learn how to pick your battles and be thankful she doesn't think they're goats.

Does it matter? It’s not like it changes anything to the people she is talking to.

Sure, she can. Doesn’t make her right, but does anybody she’s talking to need to the differentiation between the 2?
