I'm actually proud but also concerned. He told his buddy that the scarecrow won an award because he was outstanding in his field. That's my material! He's only 9 and already stealing dad jokes. I guess I'm doing something right even if it's ruining his social life.
This is peak parenting right here. Your jokes are bad enough that they're legendary, and now he's spreading them. You've basically created a joke franchise with your kid.
Dude, be proud. He's not just repeating jokes, he's using yours specifically because they work. That's like passing the torch to the next generation of terrible humor.
That's actually huge though. He's learned that humor is currency with his friends and he picked your best material to use. That's respect right there, even if it stings a little.
The scarecrow bit is actually pretty solid. I won't lie, I might steal that one myself for my kids. The fact that he's confident enough to tell jokes to his friends is a win regardless of where they came from.

Ha, that's hilarious. He's basically stolen your whole brand. Are you going to let him keep using your material or are you charging royalties now?
