Wow, that Dad kinda just laid it all out there for his unborn Fetus there, didn't he? "Like way to lay it on heavy Dad, want me to decide who gets custody while I'm still in here too? I'm kinda leaning towards mom right now, you know due to the whole umbilical chord life support issue and the free breast milk, but maybe we can talk about this in a year or so when I'm more of a real person."
Shit, good luck to this kid. I feel like we're entering into a very strange period in time for parenting, where parents who are waayyyy to into social networking (read dorks) are so anxious to pick up another friend or Twitter follower that they're creating digital lives pre-birth for their kids. Just a strange, strange thought process.
I legit saw one mom live blogging the shit out of her first child's birth. Just status updates on Facebook like every 20 minutes, "I'm 6 centimeters dialated" , "He's Crowning!" , "Man my vagina will never be the same." People realize there are just somethings no one needs an update on, right? Like how about just sending out a mass text once the kid is out of you and we'll bring you some chocolate cigars and flowers and stuff like usual. I really don't need mobile upload pics of the placenta haunting my nightmares.
Now this freaks me out for two reasons. One, really? This is what you want for your kids? Instant exposure to the internet. That's just terrible parenting. I know everyone thinks the internet is a great tool, its the future, blah, blah, blah. Horseshit. There are like 5 good sites worth going to for news and entertainment purposes, that's it (and this one isn't even one of them, you're literally wasting your time here). The rest of the internet is filled with pedophiles, porn, online gambling, sex slave trade, and blogs dedicated to making fun of unborn fetuses for the horrible and unlucky life they're about to have (that's where we fit in).
