Reasons why I had kids - according to my kids

  • To always have someone to take out the trash.

  • To always have someone to clean up around the house. While I just sit and watch, of course.

  • To have someone to say "No" to.

  • To say "No" to in order to deny them any fun. Ever.

  • To have someone I never have to say "Yes" to.

  • To have someone to sadistically torture by taking them to the grocery store.

  • To have someone to take to the grocery store "every single day and never let do anything else but go to the grocery store".
  • To have someone I can make wear hideous plaid shorts that make them "look like an American on the top and a Scottish person on the bottom".

There's more, but that's enough for now.

Wait isn't this why you have kids?? Don't they know that eventually they get the same pleasure, and you are just breaking them in and showing them the ropes?
