My 4-year-old just said, "I love you, mommy." I'm not sure if I'm ready to say it back.

So she sprung that one on me after I made her a sandwich. It's not like I wanted to be her personal slave, but the neighbors have me shit for letting her share the dog's food. I thought sharing was a good value. Fuck me, right?

Anyway, I was blindsided when she threw that one on me and I don't feel the same way. It's a big step and I'm not ready for that kind of commitment. And who the fuck is mommy, anyway? She knows damn well my name is Karen!

There are too many red flags and I think I need to break it off. Any suggestions?

now that we cannot get BuckyBall magnets anymore, what kind of magnets should I be feeding my son? I'm kinda hoping he will have powers comparable to Magneto by the time he is around 16.

My life dream was always to be a baseball player, but it never worked out due to a combination of not having talent, being lazy, and being kept down by the man. What is the best way to force my child to live my dream for me?

My son's classmate is inviting everyone but him to a birthday party. Is there a graceful way to ditch my kid, so I can attend?

I threw a baseball in a tree, but he's too much of a nerd to go up there and get stuck.

They say this Brandon kid's gonna have a hell of an 8th. I at least need to make an appearance.

UPDATE: Brandon's mom says the invitation was for my son. The assholes never bothered to write "Jr." when writing his name.

How do I retaliate against Brandon's mom?

My kid cries too much

I've tried everything, duct tape, large marshmallows, alcohol, and even smothering them with a pillow. I refuse to beat them, because I have a messed up shoulder and I won't be able to lift a beer after if I try it again. What should I do?

My daughter won't stay home despite being grounded. Every time I catch her out she makes excuses like, "I'm too old for this," and "I don't live at home anymore." Can one of you guys beat up her husband for me?

I don't want a white baby.

28 Upvotes

I just read that we white people are going to be a minority by the time my baby is 30. Well, that's going to suck. My family has a long tradition of not being part of any minorities, and I'll be damned if my kid is going to be the first.

How do I turn my baby nonwhite, so he can continue to reap the fruits of majority status (and avoid his share of the payback we've surely got coming)? Do I just feed him a lot of ethnic foods?
