Who Is Your Favorite Child?For last Fathers’ Day, one of my daughters bought me a t-shirt that says, “My Favorite Daughter Gave Me This Shirt.” I like to wear it on outings with the other daughter. When people ask if she gave me the shirt, I sternly answer, “No, the other one did.”I don’t have a favorite child. I love them both equally. But, unlike the father in this comic by Mr. Lovenstein, my daughters are tied for the #1 slot. But they’re not competing against the Children of the Corn. Also, my kids, unlike my dog, doesn’t poop on the carpet.#webcomic #MrLovenstein #parenting #JLWestover

Take Your Medicine Like a Good BoyAmong Tyler Martin’s recurring stories in his webcomic, Puddlemunch Comics, are the adventures of Toby, a young boy, and his dysfunctional father. Dad always accomplishes what he sets out to do, whether it’s helping his boy when he’s accidentally wet himself in public, wants a puppy, or explaining probability mathematics in a practical manner.In this case, Toby must take his yucky medicine. As a child, he has little understanding of fragile mortality of the human experience and the need to savor as well as protect it. Blunt terms are necessary, so Dad encourages him to take death seriously.-via reddit#wwebcomic #PuddleMunchComics #TylerMartin #Parenting

Parenting Advice from Strong BadAfter an absence of some years, the gang from Homestar Runner has revived the franchise, and we get new content about once or twice a year now. After all, the creators grew up and got jobs and stuff. There are rumors that Homestar Runner will eventually become a TV series, but I will believe it when I see it. In a surprise video out today, Strong Bad is back, giving some needed advice on parenting, which he knows nothing about. April Fool! Oh, it's not an April Fool? Strong Bad really has some parenting advice? This can't be good. Everything he knows about parenting came from that one experience in health class where you had to simulate taking care of a baby. The whole point of such exercises is to convince students that they aren't ready for kids. In Strong Bad's case, they took "care" of bags of pudding, which you can stick in the refrigerator to extend its life, so it isn't helpful for the project at all. The last two minutes of this video are nonsensical clips that don't go anywhere, but you might enjoy them. -via Digg#StrongBad #HomestarRunner #parenting #simulatedbaby

Waiting 5 Seconds Won't Hurt the KidYes, your child is miserable. But his situation is also hilarious! So, as Litterbox Comics suggests, first take a photo, then call 911.Of course, when your battery is at 2%, maybe that delay could be longer.#ClawMachine #LitterboxComics #parenting
