As Art Linkletter said, "Kids say the darndest things."

I'm actually old enough to remember that show. It was almost always a riot.

And then they had to go and spoil it by airing an updated version with Bill Cosby as the host.

Kid: Dad, how come Grandpa doesn't like LeBron James?

Me: Because LeBron James isn't Michael Jordan.

Kid: Who?

Me: The guy from Space Jam.

Kid: Oh. He's old, isn't he?

Me: Yeah, and Grandpa's just a hater.

Space Jam is a classic. I watched it with my son for the first time yesterday, and he sat through the whole movie without trying to get up and run around.

The only other thing we can put on tv that has that kind of effect is Moana. He loves the dumb chicken for some reason, and so he watches the whole movie for the times he gets to shout "Hey Hey!"

My 3 year old had a hell of a time weaning from breast feeding when he was younger. We tease him about it sometimes.

Wife: "Philly, why do you like ninnies so much?"

Tiny Trouble: "Ninnies go wiggly, wiggly, wiggly!"

Ain't it the truth.

Occasionally baby girl screams inconsolably when my wife holds her... but when daddy holds her like a football she is all smiles!

Great looking little girl. Hope the wife doesn't grow a complex! lol

 

[ulukinatme]

That's awesome, Shake! Tell the wife not to worry, girls tend to cling to daddy, and boys to their mothers. She just needs some boys lol.

2 yr old daughter drops a plate of fruit all over the kitchen floor. Wife turns around and sees it, looks at her. Daughter makes eye contact, yells "ROLL TIDE!" and darts down the hallway into the dining room.

I have absolutely no clue WTF that's all about.

 

[ACamp1900]

All I processed is that a child yelled 'Roll Tide,' and I instantly went to, "poor parenting".....

I'd have thought you'd have blamed public schools, video games or the rap music. Sure. Pin it on me.

I don't know what the hell it's about.

Well, you are a Pens fans, so maybe rap music.... maybe,...

My guess is they somehow got to Finebaum while playing with the remote.

Me: Time for bed.
Offspring: Can we do four suplexes first?
Me: No, but we can do two suplexes.
Offspring, excited: No! Two suplexes and one power bomb!

Three year old girl. Kids are the best.

You’ve got a lot of youth sports in your future (not sure if that’s your oldest). Mine are turning 11 & 15, been a blast watching them through the years. I still have a lot of games, matches, track meets, etc... left. Gonna miss these days when they’re over.

Don't forget a Torture Rack /w spin, Chokeslams, and Gorilla Presses! Gotta be careful with the Gorilla Presses though, make sure it's on a soft bed and I always lower my arms with them as they fall so they drop level with the bed. My kids love that one though.

My daughter had a friend stay over last night, today she showed her how to play electric football..... awesome.

A few nights ago I called my 7-year-old daughter from work to hear about her day and tell her goodnight. She mentioned that my wife had yelled at her for playing in the mud. A few minutes later I asked her what the worst part of her day had been and she said she'd had an absolutely great day and there hadn't been a worst part. When I reminded her that mom had yelled at her she replied, "Ehh, pffftt, I don't pay any attention to that anymore."
