Today, my daughter, who was born in late 2000, mentioned how amazing it is that she'll be alive during the year 3000. I asked her exactly how old she thinks she'll be by then. She said, "Thirty, duh." I've screwed up as a parent, so very badly. FML

Did you ask her the explain this logic? I want to know her secret & live until the year 3000. You never know OP, she could be the next Albert Einstein.

What if OP's daughter created a time machine and plans on traveling to the year 3000 when she turns 30? And she can bring all of their technology and solutions to our time and creates a paradox where our past is more advanced than their future and therefore creates a cycle where the future's ultra advanced technology comes to our time and makes the future even more advanced? BOOM MINDFUCK

If she'd said "100, duh!", it would have made a sad kind of sense, but 30 is just depressing.

Before I have been like "wow i get to maybe see 3097, since i was born in 1997" but less than 10 seconds later i thought "wait no the most i can live is like in the 2097's" just give her a while she will realise it

My son, who was also born in 2000, read this and laughed and laughed and laughed.

Maybe she's a genius whose discovered the secret to cryogenics??

Well she's apparently very young so just give it time.

Chip off the old block since clearly you like bragging about it... and you obviously didn't help her with math. Parenting at its best. Good job.
