Just an ordinary dad of two, husband of one, pointing out the funny (and ridiculous) side of parenting. Winner of zero awards. Moderately funny 65% of the time.

If your kids aren’t drinking enough water, tell them it’s bedtime.

My 4yo wanted to show me how she’d put her little brother to bed. When we opened his door, he was up playing with toys. She cried NO YOU’RE SUPPOSED TO STAY IN BED and my oh my, how the tables have turned

Jack: Daddy, you can't have chocolate toast for breakfast! Me: I'm a grown up. That means I can do whatever I like. Jack: Unless mummy says you can't. Me: Yes. Unless mummy says I can't.

Driving home with my kids & my son didn’t like the song I was listening to. He said, “Thank God we’re 10 seconds from home!” & then I took the long way home because that’s what good parents do.

If your kid asks you questions, answer them. Answer them as best you can, and do not dumb them down! Sure, they may not understand it straight away, but they will. If you want intelligent kids, don't talk to them like they're idiots. My advice. Take it or leave it. #parenting

Becoming a parent is like playing a video game where you've skipped the tutorial & you're just running about with no idea how anything works
