Today, my dad was telling me some childhood stories. He mentioned I once started sucking on a cow's udder when I was 2, and I asked why didn't he stop me. His response: "You were an accident and I wasn't good at the parenting thing". FML

A lot of parents tell their kids they were an accident just messing with them. That may have been his best opportunity to really play it up.

Being an accident is not the same thing as being unwanted though. More than half of all pregnancies are accidents. I think most parents learn to love their little 'surprises' and wouldn't have it any other way.

I had twins that were a surprise, but not once have I ever thought of them as accidents. ....****** up to say that to your kids

I think it's an honest thing to say. I mean, most of the people you see in any given location are accidents. It just means you weren't planned. Not that they didn't want you.

@27 I was an accident, and so were both of my siblings. "Accident" doesn't mean "bad thing", it just means "unplanned".

At least he's honest with you. At least he didn't run out even though he thought you an accident. See both sides OP. :)

right. I mean, seems like he got better with time. most people are so not ready for their first children, and they just kind of wing it. your dad sounds pretty cool op

I couldn't help but cringe at this, my father broke both his foot as a kid and his arm as an adult from cows deciding to give him a good kick during milking. I'm glad you weren't injured as a kid.

So what? A lot of of children are accidents and their parents love them nonetheless. I'm also pretty sure most parents feel a little overchallenged at first. You seem to have a good relationship with your dad if he tells you childhood stories and is that honest; that's all that matters, isn't it?

"insert a troll face to your dad's face" Your dad is a real troll....

Why is sucking on a cow's udder so weird if you're going to drink the milk that comes out of it anyway? That's just as weird, I reckon, especially because um it's made for baby cows, not humans. ?
