00:00I think there's some things that, as parents, we're just never going to get used to, right?
00:05Like waking up in the middle of the night to go get a crying baby?
00:08Yes.
00:09Even though we thought they would stop, it doesn't?
00:11Yes.
00:12But no, there's some strange things, stranger than getting up for a crying baby.
00:17It's the strange things that parents are sharing that they just can't get used to.
00:20And this is from a Reddit thread.
00:23And I feel like no matter how many books you read, no matter how much advice you get,
00:27these are just never going to feel natural.
00:30All right.
00:31Hit us with some of them, Ren.
00:32How about sneaking around after your kids go to bed?
00:35Almost like you were a teenager trying not to wake your parents.
00:39That is funny.
00:41Having a toddler see your naked body only to make remarks that would make even the most confident person feel a little humbled.
00:54You know, my kids do.
00:55They pinch like pinch the fatty areas or they'll like even in a bathing suit, they'll like pinch around my belly button.
01:02I'm like, OK, I get.
01:03Yeah.
01:04Yeah.
01:04I was peeing the other day and my three year old walked in and got like so close to see what was going on.
01:10And I was like back.
01:11Yeah.
01:12Because I don't know if it's the same for women, but guys can't just stop.
01:15So I had to like box her out with my butt.
01:18OK.
01:20How about like knowing your kid's brand?
01:25What do you mean?
01:26We need to get a whiff of something and you're like, oh, there's something in that.
01:29There's a present in that diaper.
01:31Oh, yeah.
01:32You know, you know, you just smell.
01:33You never would have known that going into parenting that you would know your kid's poop smell.
01:38These are the strange things parents are revealing that they just can't get down with or used to having a favorite kid show that your kids actually enjoy and you enjoy.
01:49Now, this one for me is Bluey for sure.
01:52I love Bluey.
01:53I'll sit down and watch Bluey probably over the kids watching Bluey.
01:57I'm more of a PJ Masks guy myself.
01:59OK, but Bluey, I feel like weaves in the adult humor to like things are funny to me that the kid is just so far.
02:05OK, you know, and then having three full emotions together while you're watching your kids do something for the first time.
02:16Like you're proud of them, you're sad they're growing up and it's so cute, you know, all of those things.
02:23And then finally, the last one that people are saying that it's strange and they just can't get used to is seeing an aspect of themselves that they don't particularly like in their children.
02:33But it's that copy and paste thing, right?
02:36Yeah, yeah, yeah.
02:37My son, my mom loves that my son does this.
02:40I hate that he does this, but I used to do this when I was little.
02:43If you would not pay attention to me, I would physically move your face to look at mine while I was talking.
02:50And I watched my son do it all the time to my my mom.
02:53Amanda's grandmother does that to me.
02:55And I had to tell her to mind her space because listen to me.
02:59I'm like, yeah, don't touch me every single time.
03:02I my son does it.
03:03My mom looks at me and she goes, he's you copy and paste.
03:05I don't know.
03:06I'm like, yeah, don't touch me every single time.
