“When Parents Text: So Much Said…So Little Understood”

“This book was kind of a nice surprise. I pretty much expected to be along the lines of “Check out these dopey idiots who don’t know what they’re doing.” And there’s some of it. But honestly, the best parts and the majority of the book was made up of texts from parents that were clearly the result of hilarious parents that can be appreciated by everyone but their own children.

Some faves:

ME: There’s no bacon in the dining hall.
DAD: Burn the place down.

ME: Guess what I’m wearing.
DAD: This is dad.
ME:…yes, I’m wearing your sweater from the 80’s.

DAD: I was a yo-yo champion once.
DAD: In the Bronx.

DAD: My life is over. They took ESPN sports radio off the air and replaced it with RADIO DISNEY. Feels like hannah montana stabbed me through the heart with a mickey mouse pearl-handled dagger.”
