Hey, look! I submitted a parent hack and it got posted!
Go read it here and be amazed.
I sometimes tell people offline that I’m famous in a small corner of the Internet, and stuff like this helps.
Now I have to actually *write down* some of the other “hacks” we’ve applied to our parenting. You know, on top of teaching the kids how to actually think. *snort*
What is a parent hack? Well, simple – kids don’t come with really specific instructions manuals, and the things you (the parent) do to adapt and make life easier would be called “hacks”.
Life Hacker is also a great site to get lost in for general things, including (but not limited to) geekery.
Edit: Doh! And I forgot Homeschool Hacks. I think I’ve thought of one…
And don’t forget Homeschool Hacks! http://homeschoolhacks.com
I’m not sure I would have admitted that it took me until kid 4 to figure it out
I luuuurv lifehacker.
And I’m laughing at this, “I sometimes tell people offline that I’m famous in a small corner of the Internet,” because there are a group of people IRL who have no clue about my online life, and sometimes I want to let these people know “You know, in some circles, people think I have a brain, and value my comments!”
Congrats on the posting!
I just love Parent Hacks & Lifehacker!
