Parents Worry Kids Lack Foosball Skills

Professionals exhibit skills honed by decades of wasted time.

Suddenly I realized the kids really can't play foosball. The thought occurred to me during a bout of insomnia, forcing me to sit bolt upright and run to the computer.

After checking my email and Facebook, I realized I could have stayed in bed and done all this on the phone, before remembering my sacred mission -- to get the kids interested in foosball!

Of course, all research leads to Youtube, where I intended to flag how-to-play foosball videos for the kids. Unfortunately, I became distracted by the cool video of Kelly Slater's Wave Ranch.

By then it was too late, and I returned to bed to sleep. I made mental note to do something vaguely education for the kids.

This is parenting in 2018.
