Murphy's Laws Of Parenting

  • A child will not spill on a dirty floor. 
  • A young child is a noise with dirt on it. 
  • A youth becomes a man when the marks he wants to leave on the world have nothing to do with tires. 
  • An unbreakable toy is useful for breaking other toys. 
  • Celibacy is not hereditary. 
  • For adult education, nothing beats children. 
  • Having children is like having a bowling alley installed in your brain. 
  • If a child looks like his father, that's heredity; if he looks like a neighbor, that's environment. 
  • If you have trouble getting your children's attention, just sit down and look comfortable. 
  • Insanity is inherited; you get it from your kids. 
  • It now costs more to amuse a child than it once did to educate his father. 
  • It rarely occurs to teenagers that the day will come when they'll know as little as their parents. 
  • Money isn't everything, but it sure keeps the kids in touch. 
  • Summer vacation is a time when parents realize that teachers are grossly underpaid. 
  • The first sign of maturity is the discovery that the volume knob also turns to the left. 
  • There are three ways to get things done: 1: do it yourself. 2: hire someone to do it. 3: or forbid your kids to do it. 
  • You can learn many things from children...like how much patience you have.

Don't Pee In the Pool

This lady decides to take her young and impish son to the local swimming pool. They are having a good time until one of the lifeguards walks up to the mother. The lifeguard asks the mother to make her young son stop urinating in the pool.

"Everyone knows," the mother lectured him, "that from time to time, young children will urinate in a pool! I don't see why you are making sure a big deal of it!"
