10 More Things, Episode 6

By Staci Pace

51.  Always use stain remover or oxy clean in every load. ALWAYS. 
52.  Dads really do buy their kids toys for their own enjoyment, which is why they grow terribly upset when the kids play with them in an inappropriate manner. (Such as Superman becomes a bad guy, or the GI Joe is using a Star Wars light saber, or your kid's favorite "Bumblebee" car is a Grand Am and not a Camaro.)
53.  Christmas is more fun than you ever dreamed. And more stressful. And more expensive
54.  Forget saving for college. Elementary will cost you. And so will any sport your kid might want to play. Not to mention field trips, play dates, and music lessons. 
55.  There actually are good teachers and bad teachers but you can NEVER tell your kid that. 
56.  You will one day find your child trying to clean their sibling with the Windex
57.  Never ever give your kids a choice of what to have for dinner. If you do they will never eat what you eat. 
58.  Learn how to edit photos. Because they will never all smile and look good at the same time. 
59.  Buy Band-Aids in bulk. But NOT the cheap kind. 
60.  If your child owns a piece of clothing that you don't like get rid of it quickly and quietly because it will be all they will ever wear. 

What have you learned as a parent? Wisdom is better shared!
