    I slipped up ONE TIME and said I didn’t consider my wife and kids my family (my family is my parents and brother, my kids and wife are my wife and kids; one step over family) and boy, do i get hear about that every couple of days still.

      As you should, you don’t know what the word family means.

      Teasingly ofc. They said they understood when I explained my stance, but they still tease me.

      Doesn’t help I’m a step dad, but it’s fine.

        Whatever you do don’t teach them about “deez nutz” because I have regrets. It’s all I hear from my nephew now.

        My kids (both girls) like “that’s what she said” though and I can actually get behind that

          They will inevitably learn it in their own from school and friends. My 9 year old is big into deez nuts, and my 11 year old just started with that’s what she said. Sigh. I’m not surprised, as both were my goto shticks in my pre-parenting years.

          You gotta own it. Roll with it. Learn their language – rizz; bussin’; Tuesday, Tuesday, What’s up brother? – and use it against them.

          Stay strong! You got this, bruh.

            My wife showed my kids some shorts from Bevis and Butthead- now my 4 year old goes around asking for “TP for his bunghole” and “cornholeious”. We may have started a new one trend.
