I will add “How the Child Development expert had the “Failure to Thrive” Baby who was 12 pounds at her first birthday cause her breast milk was so shitty” AND, for shits and giggles, we’ll add in

“How the Child Development Expert AND the Sociology PHD came to have a child who refuses to read at age 7″

Especially if it's supposedly aimed at adults. I can't imagine dropping that much coin on underwear. But, from your description, I am sooooo not their demographic!

I'll write the Tantrum-Proof Clothing column (did you know that it's easier to carry a screaming five-year-old out of a birthday party when you are wearing flat shoes with rubber soles?) and occasional pieces about where NOT to take your hyperactive child (Chuck E. Cheese, for example) and what to say to well-meaning family and friends who say, 'There's nothing wrong with him! You just need to lighten up!' ('bite me!', while tempting, is usually not a great idea).<br/><br/>I swear to god we would make MILLIONS. Sign me up, Misfit.

I think I'll start an anti-parenting magazine called "In The Trenches". And it'll be all about the agony of putting your kid on meds, and how the other parents judge you for it, and how to keep from breaking down into tears EVERY SINGLE DAY.<br/><br/>And it'll have recipes for the perfect martini, from you.
