Ways to tell someone has an art history degree
Yeah, I have a minor in art history.
So anyway my three year old son and I were at the science museum today. While there a little four year old boy decided to play with my son. At one point that boy asked me if I knew who Rodan was.
I, being incredibly in tune with the youth off this nation, immediately said, "The artist (Rodin)"?
No, of course he was talking about the giant pterodactyl that Godzilla fights.
Go me! And yes, apparently I assumed a four year old has a degree in art history, too.

Wasn't a bad hitter, either.
meant artifacts!!
Leaving you without a shard of dignity, no doubt. 
I started parenting late in life, in my 30's. So when my daughter was about 2-3 years old, my niece, who had 3 kids in the pre-teen/early teen range went off on a 3 or 4 minute monologue at my daughter about something or other. She rambled on about right and wrong and hurting others and following rules and consequences and stuff like that. When she was finished, she noted the blank look on my daughter's face and looked me. I was just kind of smiling when my niece said, "That went right over her head, didn't it?" I almost broke out laughing.
Age appropiate parenting can be really, really difficult.
