To the question about Emma's strengths, he answered:
– Rapid indigestion.
– Playing one parent off the other.
As for Emma's interests, he wrote things like:
– Food as art/clothing.
– Firmly gripping dog's hair.
As for Emma's goals?
– Open every drawer everywhere.
– Inflict sleep deprivation on my parents until such time as they acquiesce to my every whim.
Well, I hope this isn't one of those snooty daycares or Emma might get kicked out for her sarcasm. But I think it is. The questionnaire's logo identifies the daycare as Only About Children, which is in Australia and has "campuses."
These questions are so absurd it makes you wonder what the other parents' answers looked like. Did anyone answer them seriously? Is that possible?
Bravo to dad for telling it like it is. You've got to have a sense of humor when it comes to parenting, or you'll end a sleep-deprived, drawer-shutting, indigestion-cleaning schmuck who acquiesces to your kid's every whim. Oh wait …
