Chip Leighton started performing online as a lark, and not because he craved validation through TikTok as his daughter claimed (with snark). When sharing the funny, weird, crazy things his kids said and texted, he quickly learned he was not alone. Since launching, his channel has become the go-to support group for adults who have teenagers in their liveswholly confirming that teens everywhere say the darndest things. Parents worldwide use Leightons posts to laugh, commiserate, and share their own kids classics, like what time is noon or do I have medicare? What a relief to learn that its perfectly normal for teens to roast their parents mercilessly (Dont wear mom jeans to my school again) or ask wild questions (where do I buy pasta water). In this debut collection, Leighton showcases these gems, along with tongue-in-cheek advice, charts and graphs, and silly quizzes. For readers who appreciate the real-life humor of books like Sh*t My Dad Says or the standup of family-friendly comedians like Jim Gaffigan or Nate Bargatze, this book is the ultimate gift for parents, kids, or anyone who likes to laugh.

Arvustused

"This book is literally low-key hilarious. I was dead after reading it, no cap. (Dont tell my teen daughters I said that.) But do read this book. Youll laugh, youll cry (from laughing) and youll definitely feel less alone in the head-spinning chaos of raising teenagers." -- Carla Naumburg, PhD, Author of How to Stop Losing Your Sh*t With Your Kids "Chip Leighton has turned the tumultuous teenage years into hilarious entertainment. As the mother of a teenager, it is beyond relatable and comforting. He's so naturally funny and dry, he's the comedic vermouth in a martini-and one that's much needed by many parents." -- Caroline Rhea, stand-up comedian "In a time when raising adolescents can feel more harrowing than humorous, TikTok sensation Leighton provides comedy and maybe a few insights into the world of teens." -- Library Journal, starred review "This book is so friggin funny. Donnie [ Wahlberg] and I have been sitting here reading it and cracking up!! You can't make this stuff up. Buy this book if you want a laugh. Buy it for a parent with teens who needs a laugh. Or buy it for anyone sending their kid off to college. Even better, buy it for a kid going to college. It just might give them answers to their crazy questions before they text them home." -- Jenny McCarthy, Actress, Model, and Television Personality ""A pure delight, if only to realize you arent the only one who has raised a person capable of asking, Whats the wet stuff in soup? or Can I leave a parking space before the meter runs out? Parenting is tough but is funny."" -- Boston Globe
