Should I Be concerned (Non Comic)

So, you know that game “got your nose”? You pretend to “steal” a child’s nose and not give it back?

Yesterday, my almost-8 year old puts her hand on me, yanks it away, and says: “Ha-Ha! Got your DNA!”

Took everything I had not to say “I know sweetie, and I wouldn’t be laughing if I were you.”

    Um, yeah, and giving her your DNA was probably a lot of fun. But you can’t tell her that joke for about another 10 years.

    Carl, she doesn’t need to know the actual mechanics.

    Your daughter is funny! I don’t have kids, but taught school for several years, and was always surprised at how mature and comical young kids could be. Have a great holiday, Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanza, etc.!

    Kids nowadays seem to learn faster than we did about certain things don’t day, but then, I guess our parents thought the same about us!

    I certainly hadn’t the slightest idea of the existence of DNA when I was 8.

    Season’s Greetings to everybody, whatever you celebrate!

    Gen Z kids are so cute, like Robert Rodriguez’s kid Rebel in Planet Terror, that line “I’m gonna eat your brains and gain your know-ledge!” was just something he came out with playing one day, so Daddy put it in the script.

    Obviously, you are raising a science-origin supervillianess. Careful what she gets up to with her Science Kit! Might want to hide the fridge magnets too.
