Things I've learned from my kids
Things I've Learned From My Kids
1. A king size waterbed holds enough water to fill a 2000 sq. foot house four inches deep.
2. If you spray hair spray on dust bunnies and run over them with roller blades, they can ignite.
3. A 2 year old's voice is louder than 200 adults' in a crowded restaurant.
4. If you hook a dog leash over a ceiling fan, the motor is not strong enough to rotate a 42 pound boy wearing Batman underwear and a superman cape. It is strong enough, however, to spread paint on all four walls of a 20 by 20 foot room.
5. When using the ceiling fan as a baseball bat,you have to throw the ball up a few times before you get a hit. A ceiling fan can hit a baseball a long way.
6. The glass in windows (even double pane) doesn't stop a baseball hit by a ceiling fan.
7. When you hear the toilet flush and the words "Uh-oh," it's already too late.
8. Brake fluid mixed with Clorox makes smoke,and lots of it.
9. A 4 year old can start a fire with a flint rock even though a 36-year-old man says they can only do it in the movies. A magnifying glass can start a fire even on an overcast day.
10. Certain Legos will pass through the digestive tract of a four year old.
11. "Play-Doh" and "microwave" should never be used in the same sentence.
12. Super glue is forever.
13. No matter how much Jell-O you put in a swimming pool you still can't walk on water.
14. Pool filters do not like Jell-O.
15. VCRs do not eject PB&J sandwiches even though TV commercials show they do.
16. Garbage bags do not make good parachutes.
17. Marbles in gas tanks make lots of noise in a moving car.
18. You probably do not want to know what that odor is.
19. Always look in the oven before you turn it on. Plastic toys do not like ovens.
20. The fire department in Quebec city, Can has a 6.5 minutes response time.
21. The spin cycle on the washing machine does not make earth worms dizzy. It will, however, make cats dizzy.
22. Cats throw up twice their body weight when dizzy.

Kids have taught me that I can vomit on a stranger as long as I say in a high pitched voice "I sowwy".

Good stuff for parents!
Add this too:
Children, no matter how much you repeat and teach, will not easily learn proper behaviour from parents.
They will, however, pick up your bad habits (nose-picking, swearing, laughing after farting, etc.) at the speed of light.
Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so. -Douglas Adams

heresmore
Cups/Cans/Bottles - should not be left around .. you will find stains on cloths and carpet that may not come out
dont own anything that is 3 ft or lower .. otherwise 21 month old finds places to climb
when changing diapers make sure your face is protected .. gas and peeing have nice ways of making it to your eyes
lock up cats food or put in high places .. other wise 21 month old has found his dinner
Life is like a bowl of rotten cherries that molden over

Oh and I forgot to tell you this one also:
23 - NEVER raise your hands on your children.

Children should be placeed in a barrel at birth and fed through the bunghole until the age of 18. At that point make the decision to either take them out or drive in the bung. - Robert Heinlein.
