Silly parents? Posted: 06-02-08 22:33pm
My husband thinks that our daughter might
get weirded out at our "strangeness". He
says that because we are young and
imaginative and he plays videogames and is
diagnosed with adhd and is always hyper. I
think that if anything it will make our
daughter more comfertable around us. I
know that our daughter will love us in
spite of anything (dispite what she might
eventualy say). I'm just wondering, will
our personalities get us the "weird" or
"cool" rating?
lol. Anyone else ever think strange things
like this??

I think it depends much more on whether
you are comitted parents. My mom is an
amazing mother. She's been through so much
and yet has always made sure I have had
everything I could need to be a successful
person. But, she also has an outrageous
sense of humor. Which has made for a
wonderful relationship. Because, though
she was very much a strong parent to me,
she's also one of my best friends. In
fact, when my best friend spends the
night, all three of us hang out together
because we get along that well. =) I hope
that helps. And congratulations!!

your kids will love you no matter what. My
husband is always playing some type of
video game, and his 9yr old boy loves
him. They will most likely think someone
else is 'weird' because they don't
play video games, you are teaching them
the norm as it pertains to you.

I think almost all 'adults' play video
games now. Your baby isn't going to look
at you as people anyway, she is going to
look at you as mom and dad. How do you
think of your parents?
