Since I became a father some 5.5 years ago, I’ve realised that I’ve rather quickly turned into the sort of person who tells my children that ‘silly games, silly prizes’ and ‘want doesn’t mean get’.
I’m not sure I can pinpoint the exact moment this change occurred, but it did, and now I guess I’m stuck in this hell. The question is, am I stuck in it on my own, or are there more of us?
It’s cute, because now, years later, it’s almost a competition in the family chat as to who can google the answer to a factoid that comes up the fastest.
