This is why I have dogs.

So, I might have mentioned my buddy TL Tyson before. She’s a damn fine writer, and she does a weekly vlog I find all sorts of entertaining. This week’s vlog, though, linked below, makes me shudder for the future of the human race. Give it a watch and come on back.

Really, folks? Really? This is what you do to your kids before they even hit five years old? When I was five, I had no worries other than nap time not coming soon enough, and that’s the way it should be.

See, this is why I don’t have children. I have dogs, and I don’t require them to do anything other than be dogs. Parents, please, if you’re considering putting your kids out there on the pageant circuit, just don’t. Let them be kids. Let them wait until high school to worry about how they look, just like the rest of us.

Also, subscribe to Tee’s blog. You’ll be glad you did — it’s something I look forward to every Friday.
