#7: All for One
Going out to eat is always a special treat, even if you do it regularly. Let’s be honest; fast food is every kid’s dream. Every kid would choose a burger and fries over their mom’s casserole, right? So watching your parents pull into the drive-through line to order is one of the most exciting parts of your day, week, month, or even year.
Unfortunately, some dads are also big jokers. John Mulaney likes to share the story of how his dad managed to get his kids all excited that they were going to eat at Mcdonald’s, only to realize he was ordering only one thing for himself. We can only imagine the heartbreak on their tiny faces. That’s the best perk of being a parent – you can do whatever you want.
