Daddy, Stop Talking!: And Other Things My Kids Want But Won't Be Getting

<p>The comedian, actor, television host, podcast king, and <em>New York Times</em> bestselling author of <em>President Me, Not Taco Bell Material</em>, and <em>In Fifty Years We€ll All Be Chicks</em> now lays down the law on the plight of the modern parent.</p><p>Parents, do you often think that if your kids had to grow up the way you did€"without iPads, 70-inch flatscreen TVs, American Girl dolls, and wifi in the climate controlled minivan€"that they might actually be better off? Do you feel underappreciated or ignored? Do you worry you€re raising a bunch of spoiled softies who will never know how to do anything themselves€"because you do everything for them? If you answered yes to any of these questions, you need <em>Daddy, Stop Talking.</em></p><p>Adam rips parenthood a new one, telling it straight about what adults must do if they don€t want to have to support their kids forever. Using his own crappy childhood as a cautionary tale, and touting the pitfalls of the kind of helicopter parenting so pervasive today, <em>Daddy, Stop Talking</em> is the only parenting book you should ever read. Here, too, is sage advice to Adam€s own kids€"and to future parents€"on what matters most: dating; drinking and drugs; buying your first house and car; puberty; and what kind of assholes his kids (and yours) should avoid becoming. Even if his own son and daughter pretty much ignore everything he says, you shouldn€t. And you€re welcome. Again.</p>
