#4. Parent of the year? That's some messed up shit right there. Anyone want to guess what the girl will be doing when she's 17 years old? -Just A Chemist
More likely scenario... girl: "I want". parent: "No". girl: "I want"! parent: "No, you won't like it". girl: "I waaaant"! parent: "No, it's HOT". girl: *screaming* "I WAAAANT"! parent: *giving-in/changing approach* "Ok, you'll only try it once".
Many kids demand something because the parents are eating it. No matter how many times you tell them it's hot, tastes bad, or that they won't like it, they keep insisting on eating it. Sometimes you have to let them learn for themselves. I had a cousin that was convinced that the adults were keeping the really good stuff for themselves by not letting him have some of my Dad's Louisiana Hot Sauce. My Mother saw him sneaking into the kitchen and up on the table to get some of that wonderful magical red stuff in the little bottle. She did nothing until he took off the cap and took a nice swig straight from the bottle. She then went to the kitchen and poured some milk for him. He never asked for it again, and if you told him it would burn his mouth, he listened.
My black lab would catch food in her mouth all the time, hardly ever missing what was thrown at her. Never needed to train her, she was just hungry. My Siberian just watches the food hit her in the face, kind of like the dog and the Frisbee shown above. After it drops to the floor, she'll sniff it very casually before eating it.
#7. Too bad the wrong way bicyclist didn't end up under the car's wheels.

ReplyDeleteI can confirm #3 is the legitimate intelligence level of people in Afghanistan.
ReplyDelete#8 acts like my dog, but put on a big jacket and he wants to get mouthy and play.
