3 Things I Never Understood About Kids

I don’t have kids. Maybe it’s a good thing because I recently found out three things about kids I had no clue about.

Kids Want to Be Fed

I didn’t get this one at first, but I found out kids need to be fed every day.  Every day??!! Yes, every day. I was stunned. I can’t imagine getting food prepared for a 4-year-old. Can they really taste the difference between different food items?

Kids Need a Ride To School

What? Parents drive their kids to school? Why? Get out and walk. What’s wrong with these coddling parents? Walking is good for kids. Just think how many steps they’ll get on Fitbit every day.

Kids Repeat Things Endlessly

I remember when my nephew watched “Ghostbusters” on home video. He was maybe 5-years-old. He sang that dang theme song over and over every day for months. Scientists don’t know why they do this, and there is no known cure.
