Family Changes Pillows

"Cherish this moment, because clearly our parents are getting a divorce."

"You treat this house like a hotel!"

'I'm very confused. I never had a father. I was raised by two mummies.'

"I'm sorry but, legally, there is no way you can get divorces from your parents."

Ask Sadie Advice Hour. What's your problem?! I don't want to vaccinate my kids. But my husband does. What do I do? Excellent question. It reminds me of the time Mother Cohen and Father Cohen were arguing about vaccinating us kids. Father Cohen accused her of being a pawn of the Illuminati's attempt to use diphtheria to mutate us into ape-people. Mother Cohen accused him of being anti-Darwinian.

"We located the hissing noise, Mr. Watkins. Your wife's mother is in the back seat."

'A boy at school was named after his father. They've called him Dad.'

"Why do small children ask so many questions?" "Why not? We need to learn, don’t we? Anyway it’s no big deal is it? Isn’t that what parents are for? You were probably the same, weren’t you? So why complain?"
