*Turns off internet and sees dishes to wash appear, clothes to laundry, floors to vacuum clean, tables to dust*.... *Turns on internet again 0.0;*
Doesn't work when your kids have access to at least two neighbors' wifi :(
Parenting Tip: don't allow internet access to your kids without your approval; limit the time, and monitor it.
Also, check if all insurance documents are complete, the vaccuum cleaner has a fresh bag, and repair equipment is at hand.
My nieces are allowed to borrow as many books from the library that they can carry.
He's not kidding!! That's a lot when you have kids!!

XDD That's not true for some kids. sometimes its all the way at their friend's house on the next street over.
Does that work? My easter experiences is that the particularly hard to find eggs will NOT be found by the children...and the adults will afterwards search them, fearing the rotting smell that would come after a few days. Well, socks do not rot, but I doubt this will win you time in the end...
It's only #MomWin until she realized dad has exploited the situation by handing sweats to all of them.
Sweats? That sounds salty and smelly, maybe sweets would be a better idea! :p lol
Load More Replies...Not neccessarily. I used a lot of duct tape for my DIY houses for my dolls. Also papercraft was fun too, and it needed duct tape as well.
My personal favorite: my kid's friend at his birthday party asked me for a permanent marker. I said, .........."why?" She said, "to write my name on my cup!" Oh, thank God...
I trained mine to kill cockroaches. It works! Spiders are moved to the yard. They are not to be harmed.

Parenting pro tip: do not put a naked toddle onto the couch without anything waterproof, disposable below.
Or the carpet. One time my little cousin pooped all over the carpet and someone stepped in it.
Tip for children: saying I love you, hugging, and doing random acts of kindness will greatly improve life for the rest of childhood
There would always be these parties that your parents go to and then they stuff all the kids into one room and say play. So the kids would normally play. But then there's me. The other kids would be playing pretend and all that stuff, and i'm in the corner playing with my outdated phone. They invite me to come and play pretend. I agree. THEN they would come up with a bad situation like a kitty stuck in a tree. I would play as the kitty. So while they are busy trying to jump and get me outta the tree or whatever, I would never listen to them and start playing on my phone. i still do that when going to middle school dances.
that one can come back to bite you...because once they learn to skate...they are gone and your arm is no longer needed as a crutch.
hahaha, i do this with my 3yr old, but i suspect that she knows im lying sometimes ;-)
You probably need to overplay the "Hm..so good, so yummy hm hm hmmmmm!"

when baby -sitting, my sister would ask what im eating. its dark chocolate ice cream. but i say its frozen poop and she instantly goes away.
Well, it makes sense if you want them not to sleep outside but rather have them wet and moaning inside. :P
Load More Replies...lol don't take things so serious people. You'll give yourself a stroke. That's just funny. I don't care who you are :7
My grandpa used to finish every book with "By D**k Dackenback." Didn't notice until I could read that he wasn't the author of every book ever written.
Some day they will know the truth and then they will start doubting about everything you told. Even that you are they father
Psst. Abe is probably not too smart, either, since he has much short-sighted wisdom. But at least it is funny!
Load More Replies...I don't get my own comment anymore. Just checked my BP notifications and I'm so confused...
Load More Replies...It think it is the mismatch in style of blouse and pants...but I agree, this is not really an issue. It fits, it is dry, and she did not seem to have protested wearing it. What else would you wish for?
Load More Replies...Parenting tip: plan a little bit in advance. It will save you transforming your home into a storage hall.
Hans, gathering from all your helpful comments, I've come to the conclusion that you must not have any kids . . . but it was this post in particular that I felt so moved to respond to you on, because I think EVERYBODY with a child has at least ONCE been informed of a class project at the very last minute. You're a bore.
Load More Replies...I thought not leaving her anywhere near scissors was pretty much parenting 101 to begin with :D
this goes for nutella in my us household as well
Load More Replies...The interesting question is: does Abe Yospe actually have children? If so, and if these is just faint truth behind what he posts, his life much be a bit stressful. And it will become much, much more stressful when they grow up. Besides that: funny series! :)
