Sometimes as a parent, you find yourself wrapping your kid up in a yoga mat because that’s what he wanted. And then, when he gets stuck, you’re thinking, “Cool. Hope I didn’t just give him a lifelong fear of Little Debbie Swiss Rolls. Or Southeast Asian fitness culture.

Don’t tell his mom, but I’m secretly training my kid to be the Coyote who actually takes out his Road Runner. ACME discipline. Real-world physics. Maybe no TNT. 🧨

Teaching my toddler the word “doppelgänger” in case his brother is born with a cat allergy and he needs a non-ableist way to say “stop copying me.”

It’s a pity “Grampa’s Treadmill” isn’t an Olympic sport, because my kid would be number one with a butt-flip. (Obviously this presumes some kind of “Toddler Olympics,” which I think we can all agree is coming to America within a decade, whether or not we beat back fascism.)
One of the most important parenting skills is knowing when to say no to your toddler — ideally before they get their tiny little hands on a sharp knife.
There are, I imagine, worse things that can happen when your kid finds the back massager.
Raising a child in Southern California is basically the same as anywhere else—just with a bit more emphasis on earthquake and fire prep. That’s where the Skymall neck massager and the Skymall flame-retardant neck massager really shine.
All the world’s a stage, and all the men and women merely players. In some cases, in the rare and demanding role of ‘Mama Who Must Sing With Me With the Kitty.’ An unconventional play, to be sure, and not one of Shakespeare’s best, which perhaps explains its omission from the canon.
Next to bedtime, I’d have to say that the hardest part of being a father is probably just any time that his mother leaves me alone with him. Thank God, she doesn’t trust me too much or this would be effing impossible.
In this house we believe in hands-on learning. Today I learned that if you secretly film your kid singing, he will lay hands on you. Most father-son violence in an ABC song since the Jackson 5.
The fact remains: my son has never been seen in the same room as the Cutie Bomber. Also Spider-Man. Also Superman. So by the transitive property, Spider-Man is Superman—which explains why neither has done anything about the Cutie Bomber.
Childhood developmental specialists: Is it a good or bad sign that my toddler developed “knife permanence” first?
Things got pretty sentimental telling my son he’s going to be a big brother. But there are practical concerns too. Lotta logistics. Double the car seats. Double the daycare. And a preternaturally verbal witness to silence if we ever want to successfully convince the new one he’s adopted.

America is backsliding. When a representative is physically restrained in order to be excluded from the decision-making process, we must stand together and resist! Fuck these racists! Tennessee is looking real ugly lately.

Reform UK’s Zia Yusuf claims the Equality Act discriminates against white working class boys, but that’s false. Equality Act 2010 explicitly prohibits discrimination based on race, meaning white working class boys are just as protected as any other group. #r4today #BBCBreakfast
