5. They are horrible houseguests. I had a bunch of people over for Memorial Day on Sunday, and there were kids there. Normally, I stay away from the little hellspawns, but it was unavoidable. They picked up my Beany Baby squirrel that I like (nicknamed Fuzzy Nuts after that joke in Half-Baked) and tossed it outside, which was then run over by a car. I comptemplated doing likewise to the child, but restrained when his mother scolded him instead. Touche, timing.
4. They only cry for attention Kids cry when they don't get their way, right? How about when they cry for the sake of crying? Giving them toys doesn't help. Picking them up and tossing them into a fan doesn't help, either. What can we do to stop this? Baby Corks. They stay until you take them out. Also, pacifiers work, but they cost money.
3. Kids want to be in control Kids are the only monsters on this planet with a big enough Inferiority complex to not understand that no means no. I'm 20, but if a 7 year old wants a juice box, they cry enough to make me feel guilty that if I don't do this, they will die. Guess Frued forgot that little tidbit.
2. Appearently Kids are ALWAYS right, and the world revolves around them I got into an argument with a 8 year old about who was smarter. He kept telling me that 6 + 6 = 45. I don't know who taught him advanced trigonomitry, but I'm guessing he was homeschooled by some of the best coma patients money could buy. When I said he was way off, a light kick to my shins "told me otherwise"
1. You have them; You're stuck with them Ever wanted to be married and live a life of happiness and adventure with your spouse, traveling the globe and living everyday of your lives in the solitute of silence? Oh wait- you want a kid? Well, there goes that dream.
