This but it's trying to watch any movie with my elderly parents

Mine will talk up a movie to get me to watch it with them, and then describe every funny thing that happens in the entire movie in the first 5 minutes. Drives me bananas.

This, but unironically.

Also, I love this about kids. NEVER stop asking questions, little girl!

I wasn't ready honestly. I just wish I was twice as patient and four times as smart. Or at least vice versa.

Same. I don't know why it came as a surprise. I really thought it would come to me naturally.

Part of being a kid is having preternatural access to buttons your parents didn't even know they had. It took me several years to come to terms with that.

I think it's a wojack style meme with a woman and her child. I haven't seen them or heard of it before this post though.
