    By the way when I opened the thread I assumed the Mrs had talked you into having a kid…

    I have no penis, and am therefore incapable of having a child.

      Didn’t stop the lesbians who live below me.

      They’ll end up, after a lot of drama, with the same formula they use every time they have a trifecta: take away health care and food assistance from low income families and use the money to fund tax cuts for their donors.

        I trust then your wife was aware beforehand that she was marrying a eunuch.

          and gosh darn if I see no parents bragging about their kids.

          Let’s not disappoint you then. I’m really proud of my kid’s ability to differentiate morally between Hamas and Palestinians, between Israel’s actions in Gaza vs the West Bank, and to separate his thoughts about the state of Israel from those about the criminal who currently leads it. All this he’s been able to maintain despite having many friends who have simply decided to pick a side and chant.

          It’s more nuance than I would have mustered in 9th grade.

          Good, that beats many adults already.

            You should be proud Jon. That’s very clear thinking and will serve him well. What are his interests at this point?

              Day to day it would be gaming and guitar, like so many kids his age.

              Academically he has liked history and is very knowledgeable for his age. He’s generally a straight A student. I’ve quietly hoped he’d be interested in science because I could get him kick ass internships. May still happen.

                  Is there anything else about yourself you haven’t already told us about?

                      I like to maintain an air of mystery.
