Conversations Between Parents

Let me set the scene:

I'm doing the dishes at the sink with the dishwasher open next to me. Ryan is at the stove. Wilson is at the open dishwasher taking out the silverware and dropping it on the floor. He then takes out a knife and drops it on my foot.

Lacee: "Ow! Ryan!!"

He rushes over and gets Wilson before he has any more accidents.

Lacee: "This is Ryan's parenting technique, (said with zero conviction) 'Wilson. Don't. Stop'."

Ryan: "Well your parenting technique goes, 'Ryan! Come and get him!'"

Nice. I'm a horrible parent.

I totally feel like I was there for that exchange! And I think it's hysterical! And I know tons of parents WAY worse than you two!
(that was supposed to sound encouraging)
