You know my father's favorite game? Come here and pull my finger.

One of the great mistakes that can be made by a man of my age is to get involved in athletic competition with children-unless, of course, they are under six. And even then, stay away from hide-and-seek.

The childless experts on child raising also bring tears of laughter to my eyes when they say, I love children because they're so honest.

Anyone can dabble, but once you've made that commitment, your blood has that particular thing in it, and it's very hard for people to stop you.

Dentists tell you not to pick your teeth with any sharp metal object. Then you sit in their chair and the first thing they grab is an iron hook.

I recently turned fifty, which is young for a tree, mid-life for an elephant, and ancient for a quarter-miler, whose son now says, Dad, I just can't run the quarter with you anymore, unless I bring something to read.

Have you ever had a cookie? Then you won't get any here either.

When the child is twelve, your wife buys her a splendidly silly article of clothing called a training bra. To train what? I never had a training jock. And believe me, when I played football, I could have used a training jock more than any twelve-year-old needs a training bra.

Why do I have to feed the kids? They just ate twelve hours ago!

Whenever your kids are out of control, you can take comfort from the thought that even God's omnipotence did not extend to His kids.
