Kids are funny people. They really have no concept of right or wrong, they don’t know not to call people fat or stupid and they have no idea how hilarious their imaginary stories are to adults. That has led me to create a section here at Canadian Dad called “Sh*t My Kids Say”. I know, […]
A part of the reason I was excited to learn that I was going to become a father was because I knew that I finally had a reason to watch cartoons without being ridiculed by my wife. I liked shows like Family Guy and South Park so the transition should have been an easy one. […]
