The Art of Parental Disapproval

Parental disapproval is not just a natural disaster waiting to happen, it's an art form.

Here are some key takeaways to help you perfect the craft:

• Audition for the "I'm not mad, I'm just disappointed" face.
• Mispronounce your child's name in a sentence to make it sound more embarrassing.
• Criticize their haircut without ever having given them a compliment on their hair.
• Make them feel guilty for eating all the snacks.
