I'm not saying I've ever hurt my kid, but never thinking of it is a lie.

Kids are frustrating.

But to answer the question, I over-the-top faked a serious injury and let him think he was sending his Dad to the hospital when he landed a nerf dart near my eye. He was pretty upset and I kinda felt bad for letting it go too long.

I can't remember story but there was something my son did once and I told him cops were coming to get him, I did fake knock at door and he went to his room balling crying. I had 10 minute conversation w cop that wasn't there while he was in room shitting his pants

On my family. Early autumn vacation in Tenerife, had only spoken English with my firstborn. So many Germans and English wanting to speak English with us, I began speaking Spanish with my boy, to preserve the preciousness of our time together.

It clicked, he knew I spoke Spanish (we´d only allow my wife to do so), and to this day, his English is impeccable, but he´s got a heavy Spanish accent (I´ve spoken Spanish much more than English with him ever since).

My fricking fault.

After trick or treating and they were laying on couch in dark I ran in there and cranked up chainsaw and chased them. They were scared shitless. Forgot wife would be pissed about the fumes in the house. She was pissed!! Still worth it to see the horror on my kid's faces.

One time my kids and I were outside an ice cream truck passed by and I said hey you know why he's playing the music? They said no, I said because it lets everyone know that he is out of icecream. They found I was lying three years later. They were so mad

If I ever have kids Spanish will be what we speak at home and in public. I'll teach them English but they'll have a Spanish accent

A kid being upset isn't a bad thing. It's a learning moment, there are consequences for actions and he learned that. Not sure how that's harmful.

I've done the chainsaw bit on them a few times when they are walking on the trails behind my house, it always works.
This one's not bad but back when the swine flu was going around and was all over the news, our kids were rambunctious and wouldn't go to bed. I told them all that we were going to test them for it, swabbed all of their mouths with q tips,put them in little clear medicine cups with their initials on each one and said that it would turn blue in about 15 minutes if they had the swine flu.
I put blue dye drops in each one while they weren't looking and when they saw it 15 minutes later, started freaking out crying and worried. I told them the only thing they could do was to get plenty of sleep and not eat any junk food and maybe it wouldn't be bad. For the next 2 days, they ate like health freaks and were in bed early. Wife said I was evil but enjoyed the peace and quiet.

I laugh every time I reflect on this. It's diabolical and elegant.

When my son was 2, he used to ask my wife for "bunny milk", which was Nestle Quick (with the bunny on the container). My wife had a hard time saying no, so I told my son that the doctor said he was allergic to it, and that if he drank it, he might get sick.

To this day, he doesn't like chocolate milk, and blames me...

Pretended I was a robot who had replaced myself on a mission to replace all humans. He was next on the list, he cried pretty hard and I felt really bad.

It depends on what they learn from the experience.

If they learn not to trust you, that is a bad thing.....

I tell my son that once the batteries wear out, the toy will no longer work, my wife gets mad but I hear the sounds from his toys in my sleep at night. Nothing is freakier than hearing one of his toys start going off in his room through the baby monitor at 3 in the morning.

Agree to disagree. Trusting people is a sucker's game, I wish I learned that earlier. I'm doing him a favor.

Why on earth would you keep your kid from drinking chocolate milk? It's the best form of milk by far.

I hid from my kids in the woods one time while walking home. My little girl(4 yrs old) started crying, "daddy left us, how are we gonna get home??". My older son (6) told her it was ok and he knows how to get home. They started walking home, I followed quietly and they made it. I was so proud of my son, but I did apologize to my daughter.
