Today, my 4 year old son excitedly asked me if he'd get to see drones at the zoo. He apparently thinks drones are living creatures. I guess I can go ahead and spend his college savings on shoes. FML

Come on now, he's four. How is he supposed to know that unless you teach him?

What is wrong with you? He’s not even in school yet. What he doesn’t know is on you.

He’s four. You’re his parent, why doesn’t he know what a drone is, Susan? It’s your job.

You shouldn't be so quick to give up on him. Your job is to teach him. Not to judge him.

Drones are a type of bees, so he’s not wrong... Though he probably is.

Lady he's four he doesn't know yet I get if he was like ten or something but FOUR when I was four I thought spaghetti noodles grew on trees because of an ad I saw I know better now

Wasn't that a BBC prank? I think I saw it on YouTube.

Yeah but there was an ad that played up until I was eight too the point I was making is at four I actually believe that you could plant a tree to get pasta when I was four

It’s also an ad from a pasta commercial from 1978. https://youtu.be/q-ZtGoXkI58

You already taught him one thing about your outlook on his potential as an adult- This shoes were made for stomping and thats just what they'll do, Everyday this shoes will stomp all over you.

Most 4 year olds aren't geniuses you know.

You seem like maybe not a very nice person.

He's four. I use to think pasta was meat at that age.

When I was four, I thought there were gnomes that lived inside traffic lights and changed the colors. Kids are usually dumb and believe stupid things. If you didn't expect that going into parenthood, and moreover if you can't find the joy and humor in it, I think you might be the bigger problem in your kid's life.

Kids aren't dumb. They just don't know any better because they haven't had the chance to experience it yet... And apparently their lousy parents rather go complain about their kid being stupid rather than teach them what a drone is.

I thought there was an entire town of little people running my insides, & every time I had a headache or stomach ache I'd be super sad because someone got in a car accident in there. 😂

Maybe you shouldn’t have had kids... it’s your job to teach them things at this age, after all.
