"Quotes About Children" joke

If your child thinks he wants 'Murderous Bob, the Doll with
the Face you can Rip Right Off,' you'd better get it. You may
be worried that it might help to encourage your child's
antisocial tendencies, but believe me, you have not seen anti-
social tendencies until you've seen a child who is convinced
that he or she did not get the right gift. -Dave Barry
Sometimes people ask me: 'Dave, what is the essence of

When you're a parent you're a prisoner of war. You can't go
anywhere without paying someone to come and look after your
kids. In the old days, babysitters were paid about 50 cents
an hour, and they'd steam clean the carpet and detail your
car. Now they've got their own union. I couldn't afford it,
so I asked my mother to come over. The sitters called her a
scab and beat her up on the front lawn. -Robert G. Lee
I want to have children, but my friends scare me. One of my friends
told me she was in labor for 36 hours. I don't even want to do anything
that feels GOOD for 36 hours. -Rita Rudner
