Day 2 Cool Parents
Sunday is always a busy day at our house early waking times, early arrival times for practice for church then actual service. Even though our schedule is full it is no excuse to not have a parenting moment. In this case a cool parenting moment well according to me at least....
After my sweet is at practice my child's words are "I'm hungry" of course you are because you weren't at the house. So off we go because you know you have to feed them. While driving in the car we came across a totally 80s radio station. Playing the best of the cheesiest 80s pop music.
Said child looks at me and says "This has to be from the 80s"....parenting score #1 my child can identify 80s music by the style alone.
My reply "Why yes yes it is. It reminds me of Miami Vice"....their reply "Oh no"....parenting score #2 my child has heard of Miami Vice.
Then I say "I think I am going to require you to watch it for school this week" (we homeschool)
Quickly my child replies "No you can't"
"Yes I can only the cool parents make you watch Miami Vice"
My child's response "I don't think they call that cool"
I cannot spare my child from the best of the 80s I will feel like I have failed them. It really is necessary to learn all things great from all decades...don't you think?
