What is the #1 most important parenting rule in the world ever? Most of us experienced dads know this but some new dads might not be aware of the unwritten law of parenting. Revealed here on DIYFather.com for the first time in the history of dadkind:
NEVER GIVE ADVICE TO PARENTS WITH CHILDREN OLDER THAN YOURS
That's it ... nothing else matters. There's a few variations to this rule though (depending on your profession)
- Consultants: Don't give advice to other parents with older children unless you are getting paid for it
- Software Developers: If lastname(parent(B).child) = "Dotcom" exit();
else if get_age(this.child) > get_age(parent(B).child) do dump_advice();
- Plastic Surgeons: Don't give advice to other parents with children prettier than yours
- Lawers: Persuant to clause 7.3.4A a parent must not present a legally binding opinion on parenting matters, where parenting matters is used in accordance with clause 6.5. but not withstanding clause 7.3.3 to third parties when the third party's dependants age is less or equal the age of the dependant of the parent. For the avoidance of doubt the date of birth of both dependants at the time must be used in determining the age difference as soon as practiable but no later than at the end of the conversation.
- VCs: Don't give advice to other parents wholes children's total assets exceed your net present value
There you have it!
