move to florida and join a pentecostal church, this is the best combination of political and spiritual role modelling

ensure your children feel guilty, scared, and anxious around you at all times so you can closely control their behaviour and thoughts. this will set them up well for future relationships personal and professional

I'm open to interpretation!
Teach them to say really sexually inappropriate stuff to other adults. When they get in trouble and ostracized but they don't know what they did wrong, it's super loving funny. Great for self esteem, they'll never develop trust issues.

You should move your family into a super cursed old fixer upper, they are often resonably priced and with a newborn you will have SO much time to renovate. And dont forget to childproof :keke:

A fun game is to take a shot of vodka every time the baby cries. The first year will just fly by. Not remembering it is something you and the kid can bond over later

Your hormones will make you more tuned to their cries than you realize. You really can sleep when they sleep you'll wake up when they start making noise.

Only buy like, 5 outfits/toys for them, you'll probably get overwhelmed by hand-me-downs from other parents desperate to get rid of poo poo.
Clothes are the only retail therapy you can force them into.

Which is coincidentally where all the hand me downs will come from.

I have twofold advice. The first part is that kids are honestly more reasonable than you think. Actually explaining why you are doing or want to do something helps. Telling them to do or not to do something goes a lot better when they know why. And when it comes to food actually ask them if they know what they do or don't like about it.

I found out they didn't like roast vegetables because the roasting tasted too bitter to them. But if I steamed some veg and tossed it in some salt he chowed down like a motherfucker. Weirdly he loved pan fried brussel sprouts in butter and garlic. Little dude loved vegetables if they were prepared right, but would have a kid meltdown if they weren't and talking to him helped me figure out why.

The second part is that sometimes kids are just little loving shits who can't be reasoned with and you need to cut your losses.

If your kid asks your permission to do something and you don't want them to do it, tell them to ask their mother and they'll probably say no. Then you don't have to be the bad guy.

giving them a time frame is super useful, like 'in five minutes we're gonna go' also given them choices 'ok you want this thing or that thing' when really you dont' care a whit which thing they pick

Always remember that the former President was dumber than the dumbest person you've ever met by a wide margin

If your child has problems at school don’t worry - just schedule a meeting with the teacher and scream at them.

There are a multitude of reasons a child might be struggling in school and not one of them is due to the YOUR parenting. The louder you scream at their teacher, the better!
