Dads Vs Moms


Today I learned a very big difference between how dads think and how moms think....

Dads
  1. If the blood isn't gushing than you're fine.
  2. Hey go ahead and drop off the kids at the water park 500 MILES from home - they'll be fine
  3. Thinks mom is over protective
  4. Says 13 and 11 year old girls should be able to hang out at water parks without their parents
  5. Thinks the girls can do the laundry themselves.. - it's mostly theirs anyways.
Moms
  1. If the blood is gushing - Urgent Care here we come
  2. No way are you dropping my kids off at a water park 500 MILES from home -that is why our youngest is crying on the phone - she's afraid to go...
  3. Thinks dad is not protective enough.
  4. Says 13 and 11 year old girls should not be hanging out at water parks without an adult present (one they know)
  5. Thinks the girls can do the laundry themselves.... - it's mostly theirs anyways..
There is a big difference between the parenting skills of dads and moms.... I'm thinking.. I am not saying one way is better than the other.. we're are just different... There is one thing that I can say.... my kids will not be going to the water park by themselves..... at least tomorrow or anytime soon.

  1. Well at least you agree about the laundry. You the Mom! I'm with you on this one. My daughter won't be going to a waterpark by herself either. :)

  2. Amen! It sure makes marriage and parenting easier when it's accepted that we WILL think differently on most things. You're right, there is no right way or wrong way, we're just different!
