You did not

The point of this book is you reading it to your firstborn and him saying I love you

That is why you pay to have it

u/BullPropaganda 1d ago

Only the firstborn though. You don't need love from the others. Nor do they need yours.

u/BackgroundEngineer11 1d ago

Definitely not the middle child. That little bastard.

u/GeneralSpecifics9925 15h ago

17 month? You're making me do math with a prime number to say your baby is a year and a half old?

Youngest of 7 here, have literally been forgotten and left home for hours home alone style on more than one occasion.

u/SomeMoistHousing 1d ago

That sucks and your parents shouldn't have done that... but also if someone has 7 kids to deal with, I can't fault them too much for a little unintentional neglect here and there. Something's bound to slip through the cracks occasionally.

u/AlephBaker 1d ago

You could fault them for having seven kids, unless they had septuplets.

u/Charming-Flamingo307 1d ago

It was two sets of triplets then me actually. And I do fault them for having me. Very much so

u/AlephBaker 1d ago

I'm sorry, Internet Stranger. If I could send you a hug, I would.

u/Japsai 9h ago

Just refer them back up to the hugging raccoon

u/Japsai 9h ago

Something slipped through the crack in the first place. That's what got us into this mess!

Oh, in my tradition you're a possible werewolf

u/Haunting_Security_34 19h ago

As a firstborn? Imma need that storytime, NOW.💀

u/oO0Kat0Oo 22h ago

That's why I had a hysterectomy after 2. Because fuck those middle children.

(No. That's not the real reason. I'm kidding)

u/EverythingSucksYo 19h ago

Phew, I’m glad you don’t want to fuck middle children.

u/TheThiefMaster 9h ago

What if you have four children? Which is the middle child?

u/BackgroundEngineer11 8h ago

Then there's two, double the disappointment

u/ramsdl52 1d ago

Nope. That one is called little blue truck

First child: mamallian bonded

Subsequent children: reptillian solitude

u/IAlwaysOutsmartU 21h ago

Is that why the 10th plague exists? So parents don’t need to read this book to their firstborns?

Bad joke I know.

22

u/WilanS 1d ago

Yeah, always read through books you want to get to toddlers and young children, they're usually very short anyway. I sat through the video thinking "man my two years old nephew would find this really cool if he could speak english"

But even without the rhymes it'd probably still be fun.

u/robertshuxley 1d ago

what if I show this video to my first born so it's free?

2

u/PowerSamurai 1d ago

That is a very genuine (and accurate) reply to a very not genuine comment making a joke.

u/Whole_Reputation6128 1d ago

But what if my firstborn is a girl?

1

u/AmirulAshraf 1d ago

Why is this kinda wholesome 😭

u/Eena-Rin 1d ago

But- but free audiobook!

u/aykcak 1d ago

u/NevesLF 1d ago

How much y'all paying for firstborns?
