Random Observation/Comment #471: What’s even more scary than parenting is the fact that most parents have no idea what they’re doing.
Why This List?
My parents taught me quite a few things that I hope to teach my future kid. Hopefully they will just learn them without resisting and one day hating me because “I don’t understand them” or “I’m not as cool as I used to be.” Did I mention kids scare me (but I’ll probably be a decent father)?
