#1. Sadly, that’s not how they work.
My 5 yo after I explained the concept of breastfeeding: "can you squeeze Capri Suns outta those things or just milk?"

#2. That’s all any of us really want.

#3. And is he rich?
5: I'ma marry Noah.
Me: Why?
5: He's handsome and I like his shirt.
Me: Looks aren't everything.
5: He likes to clean too.
Me: Lock that in.— Ash (an female) ⚪️ (@adult_mom) January 26, 2016
#4. What good is THAT?

#5. Mastering sarcasm before the alphabet.
My 4yo has never said "great" non-sarcastically. Pretty sure he just thinks it's a negative word.
I'm a great dad.

#6. You’ve raised her well.
6: Daddy, I'm mad at you.
Me: What for?
6: I'm not telling you.She's already a woman.

#7. Why.

5: HEY MOM THAT MAN IS USING A WALKING STICK BC HIS BONES AREN'T STRONG & HE'LL DIE SOON RIGHT— sweatpants cher? (@House_Feminist) June 3, 2016
#8. Ouch.
My 11 year old son wrote this joke: 'When is it the right time to tell your mother she was adopted?'

#9. What exactly do you do, Daddy?
Daughter: How was your day, Daddy?
Me: Pretty busy, lots of meetings and deadlines.
Her: DEAD LIONS!?!— The Dad (@thedad) March 19, 2013
#10. Takes one to know one. Just sayin’.
7yo(to 10yo brother): You're just a little BITCH!
Me: Whoa, hey! Sit down! Do you even know what that means?
7yo: No. But I know he is one!— keith (@tchrquotes) August 28, 2015
#11. Bad daddy.
"When I'm big I'll be a taxi driver" "Well, by then robots will drive cars" Now he's sad and hates robots, and that's why I'm a crappy dad

#12. It’s more like highly concentrated mass hysteria.
[two of my four kids burst into tears]
Random lady walking by: Why are you crying, girls?
Me: It's cute that you think there's a reason.

#13. They won’t shut up for many, many years.
When your kid is a baby: "I can't wait til they learn to talk!"
When your kid is 2+: "OMG ENOUGH, PLEASE MAKE IT STOP."

#14. Wise words from a seven-year-old.
Most inventors are smart, but not the person who invented homework. They are the worst of all the inventors.

#15. That’s what adults do all day, to be fair.
My 2yo said she is a grown up. I told her she isn't, that she is a toddler. She replied, "No, I'm a grown up. I'm going to touch knives."

#16. Oh, the power.

#17. Master of subtlety (and self-incrimination).
4yo: What happens if your phone goes in the potty?
Me: WHY?
4yo: Never mind.

#18. Apparently this isn’t how parenting works.
At what point in listening to your kid whine can you say, "Sorry. This relationship isn't working out. You should start seeing other moms."

#19. She makes a valid point.
The Girl: Why would someone dress like a hamster?
Me:…. Do you mean hipster?
Girl: What's the difference?
