Parenting Level Unlocked

K

Mar 111 min read

Finally reached the point where I can tell my kids are laughing WITH me instead of AT me when I make jokes. Pretty sure I heard my 10 year old groan-laugh at one of my puns yesterday. The groaning is basically applause for dads. This is the peak of my life.

That's the moment right there. When they laugh with you instead of at you, parenting feels like you're finally getting something right. Congrats on leveling up.

This is such a good milestone. My kids are still at the groaning stage but I can feel us getting close to this. It's different when the laughter feels genuine instead of obligatory.
