Classic dad move

Kids: Who wants them, who's got them, who can't live without them? I find it so touching when people talk about wanting to be a parent since they were teenagers. Most young people that I know seem to have an "uh, I don't know" attitude toward having kids. There's absolutely nothing wrong with that; in fact, I'm in that boat myself.

Kids are such naturals

Baby fight club is too funny

Dad jokes are basically my favorite kind of joke. First, you don't have to be a Dad to tell them.

Remember those "May the 4th" jokes today, dads!

Twenty years ago, parenting books used to be where it was at. Parents who had a million questions about how they should raise their kids didn't go around posting about it on their MySpace pages. They went to Borders, Books A Million, and other now-defunct stores and bought a bunch of books about it!

For a childless person, I sure spend a lot more time in the enclaves of the parenting side of social media than I probably should. Twitter, TikTok, and Facebook: all of these places have proved to me that parenting is no walk in the park and that it truly takes over a person's life.
