Lol This right here is just great XD Poor Shadow.
I don’t know… I still want to find someone and have kids with her…
P.S. I was babysitter back in the day, so well I think I should be able to manage somehow, though probably it would be stressful, as fathers don’t get days off =)
Tri, you’d think you’re prepared. My advice, sleep now. 🙂 When my wife had our daughter, after three days of labor then the birth itself and me not sleeping at all, I was trying to fold out the chair in my wife’s room and fell asleep sitting on the floor trying to recline the chair…
Sleep is not something parents get much of – even now what my daughter’s 4 and a half!
Shadow: Whhy don’t you talk to Uncle Woo an’ he’ll…
Woo’s broken outline: *expels dustcloud* *fades*
Shadow: ……Why don’t you go find Uncle Woo an’ he’ll talk to you…
>:=)>
Well, getting enough sleep…zzz
“I’m gonna tell, I’m gonna tell
I’m gonna holler and I’m gonna yell –
I’ll get you in trouble for EVERYTHING you do
I’m gonna tell on you!”
here’s a tip, hire a babysitter one weekend a month and go to a nice hotel/spa and get the most cost effective service. this way you feel great without breaking the bank and can get back to keeping up with your child(ren) for the next month till you do it again. you would be stress free as long as you don’t stress about spending 1k a month to treat yourself to a relaxing break from your child(ren).
This also applies to being in a universtity… *goes back to sleep*
@ eldestdawn:
That’s…pragmatic.But not really acceptable for a bunch of different reasons in some countries.@
charbelbou:
Being in a university it’s sleep-deprivation-time two months a year + occasional all-nighters.You don’t have ‘days off’ for being a parent(for at least 17-18 years straight…)
As the father of both a 14 year old and a 5 year old I can say that parenthood was one of the most wonderful events in my life, so far. It has been filled with both joys and terrors, and I would not trade a moment of it, even if I have to deal with the occasional scene like in this comic.
It’s not as bad as all that, Shadow.
From Wikipedia: “The lactation period lasts 6–7 weeks. The kits reach adult proportions at the age of 6–7 months. Some vixens may reach sexual maturity at the age of 9–10 months, thus bearing their first litters at one year of age.”
You have it MUCH better than humans! Couple more months and you’ll have your life back.
Unless you and Echo choose to start the whole thing over again next year.
Ok… What did Rocky do?
My mom used to babysit little kids for years at our house, so I’ve been exposed to them nearly all my life. Babies still scare me.
Maybe Woo shouldn’t have been so quick in making Lily allow him to get near his kits.
Just kidding. I have no children, but I do know the following: After having experienced a countless number of sleepless nights and their child has finally reached an age where, while a lot of attention is still needed, the child rarely wakes it’s parents up during night anymore, said parents decide that the thing to do is to get another child. So, apparently it’s worth it.
Well, it could have been worse. Shadow could have replied “it’s stings every time you lose a child, but you get used to the vast majority not surviving”.
@malin i know i was just joking man >.<
not to insult anyone, i’m sure you are all great people, but i think the comment section is getting a little bit too serious.
*taps mic*
hello? is this thing on?
I’m not sure if Samuel Clemens said it (sounds like something he’d say)…
“It takes 3 adults to track one toe-year-old. Unfortunately, they come equipped with only two adults. That’s why parents always seem tired.”

Wow, Talk about the Stress of Fatherhood …
I can relate – I have an 8-1/2-year-old son and a 7-year-old daughter… Let the tattle-fest begin! 😛
@ Rich K.:
Imagine my sister…
first born son turns out to be a state and national karate champ
born one year later… twin sons who turn out to be cornerbacks for the high school football team, fowards for the basketball team, and generally all-around athletes competing ONLY with each other.
born one year after the twin… only daughter, who turns out to become not only a cheerleader, but the captain leader in her sophomore year. She also does the athlete bit in both basketball and track.
ALL four went to college on academic scholarships (not athletic) .
THAT was a very rowdy house when they were youngsters.
The origin of narcolepsy.
But the real question is… What did Rocky do?
Woo’s really in for hell.
