this is why you have kids (i.imgur.com)

I was expecting to see some kid mowing the lawn. I'm pretty sure that's the only reason my parents had me.
[–]zachv 78 points79 points80 points 1 year ago
You forgot about shoveling the driveway in the winter.
[–]benihana 24 points25 points26 points 1 year ago
Didn't have snow in Florida. Just lots of grass.
[–]khamul 37 points38 points39 points 1 year ago
Well then shoveling the grass, work with me here...
[–]klystron 1 point2 points3 points 1 year ago
Weren't you a tax deduction as well?
[–]khamul 0 points1 point2 points 1 year ago
Well, yes.
[–]seekret 0 points1 point2 points 1 year ago
That's a pretty expensive tax deduction.
[–]klystron 0 points1 point2 points 1 year ago
It's a long-running one; 0 - 18 years.
(Your mileage may vary under different tax regimes, and with different kids.)

The parents of a friend of mine in high school once let slip that they deliberately waited the dozen years to have her younger brother, so that she would be old enough to babysit. Needless to say, that did not go over well with her.
The lesson here, is that once you reveal to your teenage child that you planned for their indentured servitude, however bad things were between you and them, it will only get worse.
[–]MorboKat 0 points1 point2 points 1 year ago
My Dad let slip that he had 3 kids in quick sucession because, as an only child himself, he always wanted siblings who would be his friends.
I am apathetic towards my younger sibling and hate my elder with the cleansing fire of a thousand H-Bombs. I think the lesson is, if you intend something for your children, that is the only thing guaranteed not to happen/not go well.

I hope my future kids never win the lottery and buy me a jet pack
[–]Terex 0 points1 point2 points 1 year ago
But that sounds sooo 1970s, 80s, etc.
Nowadays we are locked in perennial physical conflict that determines who is the eternal warrior.

Shoveling snow, too.

And picking up dog shit.
[–]gustoid 6 points7 points8 points 1 year ago
Even though you probably said "can we have a dog... pleeeeeease, I will walk it and everything!"
[–]gzcl 20 points21 points22 points 1 year ago
Damn that "everything" part. I did say that, damn.
In my case it was "No, don't get a dog because you work all the time and I'm NOT walking it in the winter!" That was 10 years ago and now we have two dogs...
[–]carinda 6 points7 points8 points 1 year ago
Dishes.
[–]tradjazzbaby 3 points4 points5 points 1 year ago
My parents would say they had kids to do the dishes. I still resent them for it. Scrubbing cast iron and giant stock pots is not easy when you are four feet tall and a perfectionist. It would literally take me hours, and I would have wrinkled hands and be soaked down to my feet. As an adult, I don't fucking wash dishes. I cook, boyfriend washes up.
[–]santa4nt 1 point2 points3 points 1 year ago
In third world countries parents have (or try to have) lots of children precisely because they're much-needed hands in the farm.
[–][deleted] 1 point2 points3 points 1 year ago
I thought it was for the extra body parts.

Actually, I think it's a Kamehameha. Yes I am a complete geek :)
[–]Eurynom0s 40 points41 points42 points 1 year ago
Can't be kamehameha because he doesn't spend five minutes acting like he's pushing out a constipated shit first.
[–]BugeyeContinuum 37 points38 points39 points 1 year ago
five episodes

[–]mship 6 points7 points8 points 1 year ago
Doesnt five minutes in dragon ball z equal five episodes. I thought everyone knew how time flowed in that show.

They were only created two years apart, give the DB lover a break.

The Dragonball manga started 1985, Street Fighter only 1987. I don't think that's your lawn.
[–]likwidtek 0 points1 point2 points 1 year ago
Don't bring logic into this.
[–]rntksi 1 point2 points3 points 1 year ago
Yes, it is a Kamehameha, by the hand motions.

Yesterday I made a slowly opening alien egg pod and a facehugger with my hands and attacked my kids' faces with them. First I'd open up my fingers like the egg pod making squishy sounds and then I'd yell out "face hugger!" and make like a spider with both my hands running at my kids and gently but quickly wrap the legs (my fingers) around the heads for a second, which they loved. (1 year old and 4 year old.) I think I did it at least 30 times while my kids laughed their heads off. Kids are easily entertained. :)
[–]realfinkployd 26 points27 points28 points 1 year ago
I'm sure they are thinking the same about you :)
[–]chaircrow 9 points10 points11 points 1 year ago
Ah the halcyon days of youth, when we don't yet know the origins of "face hugger."
[–]shantm79 29 points30 points31 points 1 year ago
pretty much... yesterday, my 3 year old son and i got light sabers and played for hours. we went hunting for monsters around the house. found one, it's name is mommy.
[–]achilles 7 points8 points9 points 1 year ago
Did you spear it in the midsection repeatedly to make sure it doesn't cause any trouble?
[–]smurfjoe 33 points34 points35 points 1 year ago
Not doctor yet? Hadouken in the face!
[–]shantm79 14 points15 points16 points 1 year ago
not coding next googles? Haduken in the face
[–]greyjay 10 points11 points12 points 1 year ago
Kid just got blasted in the face full force with some heavy qi. Not even old enough to defend himself. Shit's messed up. Shouldn't someone alert the child abuse authorities?
[–]mrmoelester 12 points13 points14 points 1 year ago
Speaking as a stereotypical Asian, I can say from experience that this is a perfectly common and healthy conditioning exercise (haven't you read the Tiger Mom article?). 1pm: repeated hadoken in the face, 2pm: Trigonometry lessons.
[–]the_Freshest 13 points14 points15 points 1 year ago
My mom remarried when I was a little kid so our family grew from me and my brother to include a stepbrother and stepsister. When I was 9 my new parents had a son to "seal the deal/tie the new family together" sort of thing. Well, I was around 14 when DBZ hit big on toonami.
Everyday id get home from school and watched the series religously from the saiyan saga all he way through maijin boo. My little brother was now around 5 years old and we would dragon ball z fight during the episodes: he was named Chi Chi and I was Master GoGo I believe.
I remember flipping him through the air and onto pillows, doing kamehameha's and battling like crazy.
It's a fond memory we both remember to this day. I'm 24 now and he's going on 16. He went from a little karate kid to a lumbering 6'5 and weighing 230 lbs. And we still play fight all the time.
Good memories
[–]papatooth 3 points4 points5 points 1 year ago

He was actually abusing his baby using Ch'i.

[–]RubyRhod 2 points3 points4 points 1 year ago
Keep telling yourself that. Excuse me while I do absolutely whatever the fuck I want during the day (weekend), stay out as late as I want boozing and then using my disposable income as I see fit.
Not to mention how much having a kid contributes to pollution and natural resource depletion.

[–]MrSketch 0 points1 point2 points 1 year ago
Well, thank you for the inspiration. I started this project immediately after reading your comment. It only took about 2 minutes to train, but then another 10 to find a place to prop up my cell phone to record an adequate video. My dog is really smart and even trained in agility so teaching her new things is pretty easy, and this will be a fun trick to pull out when friends are over, etc.

[–]emtcj 1 point2 points3 points 1 year ago
Funny...my Mom had her knee replaced a few years back. While she was in the hospital heavily medicated with morphine, every now and then she would sit up in bed and talk and half way through the sentence she'd fall asleep again.
Well my brother and I were there and she was telling us what we need to do when we get back home and she stopped talking and you could tell she fell back asleep sitting up. My brother pointed his finger like a gun and went BANG and perfect timing she fell back without trying to catch herself.
She woke up and said wow I just had a dream I was shot.
Ah good times

But no, you are totally right; making them perform circus tricks a chimp can do is much more important!
