Bad Dad
My 4yr old (formerly known as the 3yr old) really likes Boba Fett.
And I have a Boba Fett that is still in its package which really pisses him off.
So I *accidentally* placed Boba a little bit out of reach. This created about an hour of fun for me…

It’s important to teach them early that you have all the power and can make their lives a living hell. Â ;-)

Robert Browning, I think, said it first:
‘A man’s reach must exceed his grasp
Else what’s a heaven for?’

A little cruel. But so is life!
Sarah Wilson
Ah, the focus of youth.

OK, so what happened after the hour? A chair? A broomstick? A bribe? A taller friend? Mummy? Dad’s conscience? Let us know please?

Nice… Way to promote a desire to get big and strong to never let that happen again!

he will get you back

The only thing that would be cuter than this is if you had a hidden camera and you recorded his attempts to scale the wall. And yes, he will definitely get you back when he’s older, taller and wiser. A great fun pic. Thank you so much. Â
Brent Knowles
Glad you enjoyed. And yes I know he will have his vengeance.
Brent Knowles
So true.

Bad dad! 1 hour? He’ll never forget the torture. :)

Funny, I’m in the Bad Dad category too! My son left his brand new bike behind my Expedition (no backup camera) and I conveniently ran over it.Â
So he tells me…..
 “If I had the code to the garage door my bike wouldn’t have been behind your truck…..” We’ve all got that story….That was two months ago. We just got his bike fixed today… :-)I guess that makes me a bad dad….

Brent Knowles
Ouch! I’m always worried about doing something like that.

hahahaha nice! I have a 3 (soon to be 4) year old myself. She and my 5 year old are huge Star Wars fans and I can see this happening with them for sure. You’re giving me ideas here…
Brent Knowles
Hehe. Have fun with them!Â
Timothy Brand
So I would totally do this =p I have a few Star Wars figures that my little ones keep asking for. Maybe I should try something like this!
Brent Knowles
Do it!
