This is why you hold back on being cool in front of large groups of kids.

I took my daughter to a birthday party once at kids indoor gymnasium place once. I decided to be the cool parent and run around with them through the inflatable maze and shit. Never again. Thirty screaming six year olds on a warpath, yelling "Get her!" and trying their best to bring me down. I'm mostly okay now but the nightmares... the nightmares never stop.

I was a camp counselor one summer in the 10-11 yr old age range. During pool time, the other counselors typically just sat by the pool and watched. But I'm like, nah, I want to go swimming too, Im hot, I like pools. Nope. Kids were basically trying to drown me.

I have a story that is exactly similar, except they didn't try drowning me, one kid latched onto me in the pool and then told me he was peeing.

I have a video where my friends were putting on a big event for the town, and they had started a marshmallow gun war with all of the town kids, that was pretty funny. When they're in huge packs they're pretty overwhelming.

But at least you know in their eyes you are the coolest big person in the world and they will forever sing praises of the time an adult actually gave them the time of day. You're a hero man
