19. Big tears

The amount of times their strong invincible daddy has cried without them seeing.

20. This happens often

I really really wanted a boy but after she was born I was happy to have a girl.

21. Tinder

That I met her mother on an online dating website.

If she asks I’ll do a Mosby and go through my life story of love conquests… With any luck she won’t last the 5 minutes.

22. Welp, you got them

I don’t tell many people this but, I never wanted children. When I found out I was pregnant, I was absolutely devastated. I made an appointment to have an abortion, but never went through with it and throughout my pregnancy I don’t think bonded with her. I almost tried to act as if it wasn’t happening. And even when I gave birth, I was scared to death.

It took a while for me to bond with her and when I finally did, she had a regression and a major personality change and was diagnosed with autism. I feel responsible because of my negative attitude during my pregnancy. Now, I love her more than life itself. Everyday she gives me a reason to smile. And she has the such a beautiful soul. But my pregnancy is my most shameful time in my life.

23. Ancient

That I have no college degree and mommy does – yet I make six figures and mommy couldn’t even find a job in her field. Also, we were both arrested for DUI’s and were both on probation at the same time when we met. In fact, it’s what we talked about – when we met at a bar…..I tried to buy her a drink, she had a breathalizer in her car and couldn’t drink because of DUI. The rest, as they say, is history.

24. Haha

How much trouble I would have been in if social media existed when I was in school.

25. Be safe

I’m probably okay with her knowing most everything about me. It’s just a matter of when she learns it.

She is 5 now, so I would be upset if she learned about how I was raped because she is too young to know that horrible things like that happen. I play to tell her either right before or right when she starts high school (I was 16 when I was raped) so I want her to know to be safe.

Stuff like that.

26. Mundane

That we have a drawer full of sex toys ranging from the mundane (vibrators, lubes, etc) to the medium (nipple clamps, bdsm stuff, vibrators intended to be used in public spaces) to the extreme (a vast assortment of buttplugs), a VAST collection of marijuana paraphernalia and marijuana itself, and full color, high quality nude pictures of each other.

Being an adult is awesome.

27. Adult content

Before I was married and had my kids, I spent 6 years in the Navy, 4 of those years on a ship with 2 deployments overseas. I would not want my kids to know what took place on those deployments. Nothing bad, but very much “adult content” that they don’t need to hear their father being involved in.

We know you can choose a lot of sites to read, but we want you to know that we’re thankful you chose Did You Know.

You rock! Thanks for reading!
