Description
Because all those internet parenting tips CAN be wrong.
When your little angel uttered that first, precious word, you ran scrambling for the camera. But it didn’t take long for them to discover and then wield with abandon every parent’s most feared word in the English language…
“WHYYYY!?”
“Why can’t we stay?” “Why can’t we go?” “Why not one more?” “Why not right now?” “Why, why, why…?”
This adult bedtime book is for the parent in your life who’s gripping onto the last threads of their sanity.
Because when no answer is good enough…
And the questions just won’t stop…
Only one response will do…
“BECAUSE I F**KING SAID SO!”
Irreverent, heartwarming, and snort-inducingly hilarious, Because I Fucking Said So is a rhyming picture book for adults that captures the essence of parenthood: A rollercoaster ride of joy and exhaustion, triumph and frustration, and ultimately, love.
Advance Praise
"Because I F**king Said So is parenting humor at its best. Although it may look like a children's’ book at first glance (with a very naughty title), this is an extremely candid book about parents and some of the frustrations they encounter while raising children. As a mom of three grown boys, I truly identified with so many scenes in this book. . . The author hit the nail on the head when he wrote about being “a dumpster fire of failed internet parenting tips.” Everyone has the best way to do this or the best way to do that, but when you’re in the thick of it, you just want the chaos to stop. . . The illustrations in the book perfectly match the four-line prose the book is written in. From snot on the child’s nose to the little girl banging on the bathroom door, these drawings made me laugh. . . I would recommend this book to anyone who has ever thought about having children or who has children.
