My 4th grader reads at an 11th grade level. Top that.
Well my 30 week old fetus was playing with his man parts on his last sonogram. So he is going to be a perv. Top that

It is a very tough pill for most parents, specifically moms, to swallow.

Although your kid is the #1 most important thing to you in the world, very few, if any, people outside your family give a flying frick about them.

Do I want them to be smart, safe, and happy? Absolutely.

I just give zero fricks about their journey.

You sure are angry your parents didn't feel proud of you.

Pretty much the only reason I have Facebook. So distant relatives can see my family and I can see theirs. Everything else is just filler.

I see I hit a sensitive bone. Go to money forum and brag there, mangina. Only thing that sucks more than your brag is your wife.

The truth hurts. Only parents interested in their genes. Nothing wrong with that. It's natural. But others don't care about them. I have a 4 year old, but parents need to know the truth.

They never have. I never needed fake compliments to get by.

Out of 7 billions on the planet, you think your seeds stands out to anybody besides you? I'm not stopping you to hype them up. You can do it. Peolpe just don't care. That's all I'm saying.

The truth is I have the smartest, cutest son on the planet. And people should feel lucky to see pics of him pulling his wagon next to his puppy.

When we had the 20 week ultrasound we were watching and my wife asked the girl is that his arm? She said uh... nope that's a boy. Of course being immature I quickly came in with welp I guess I can't say this one's not mine. My wife didn't find it very funny. WHen we left the sonographer gave me her number in case we need her for anything. When we were in the car my wife asked wtf would we need a random ultrasound for? My dr will just schedule me one. I made the comment that I don't think that's what the number was for.

My back is still sore from sleeping on the couch those two weeks.

This is wrong. No matter how many times you repeat it, it will never be right.

I understate my son's ability in soccer, but I'll talk up his football kicking side. Other dads think anyone can kick, but they're full of shite. That and when you watch a video it looks easy...it is if you have a big leg with an accurate foot...but it's funny that no one in the whole 9-11 league can do it worth a frick. My 9 yr old is deadly inside 80ft.

Problem is, no one can agree on what actual accomplishments are.

I'm proud of my kids' accomplishments but it's all relative:

Not utter'd by base sale of chapmen's tongues."

I have no problem with parents or grandparents who think their kids are the greatest thing ever. That's normal. But what I hate is if they get bent out of shape if you don't comment to agree or like their pictures.

They only people who brag to me about their kids are family and since its family I kinda care.

Now if it was just some acquaintance babbling on about their little brat then yeah I'd get pretty bored of that.
