I'm putting together a humorous speech about being a young parent for a college class revealing the "ugly truths" of having kids at an early age.. for example:
"If it looks like peanut butter, smells like peanut butter, and feels like peanut butter... It might not be peanut butter."
What are some of the "Golden Rules" you've learned about being a parent that I might be able to incorporate into my speech?
Thanks!

Be nice to your kids---they will some day be picking out your rest home.

I really don't have a gold rule yet, my baby is only 7 months. But what we learned so far is
when feeding a baby, wear your raingear. Carrots + a baby = a new shirt for mommy
AND
never do the poke test, too dangerous (it is either sniff, peek or poke when you think the baby has a dirty diaper)

Just because it seems obvious doesn't mean it is.
Because I said so really is a good answer.
Always take time to be a kid with your kid otherwise you miss some great stuff.
Never store your breast milk in an unlabeled container when you have guests.

The volume of a child's cry grows exponentially with the hour of the day, and it hits its peak at 3:00am

How about this,
Do you think the little peanut is cute? only if she sleep better and you are exhauseted, she cries louder and you are very stronger.

It wasn't my fault means it was.
