Why I'm going to exploit my kids

... because whoring your children out to YouTube is not parentally irresponsible; it's socially generous. Just because the insanity of these kids is on display for all the world to ridicule it doesn't mean mom and dad love them any less. Two children have recently affirmed these feelings of mine. Even Anderson Cooper is getting into this crap!

1. Kitten girl. A lot of people are going to tell you that this video was totally scripted and manipulated by the kitten girl's parents. You know, even if it was, I totally believe that the commentary all came straight from the kid. It's the kind of weird, random, too-mature-for-its-own-age-at-times tone that can only come from a 6-year-old.



2. David after the Dentist. If you're ever at a party with me tokin a fatty and you offer me a hit, this is exactly why I will vehemently refuse. The second I learned how to inhale, this is what I looked like five minutes later. I totally sympathize with the need to let out a primal scream, wondering if I was part of real life, and hopelessly pondering "is this going to be forever?"

You know, videos like this are the only evidence that having children will actually be sort of hilarious. Mostly, they'll just be whining and learning how to not wet the bed and spending all your money, but, occasionally, they will do things like this and for just a few minutes you'll forget how much they suck.
