PARENTING
Welcome to MY world: Top ten reasons Geeks make good fathers
> 9. SMART IS COOL. Having a Geek for a father instills the message into your children that smart is cool. They idolize Daddy. Hopefully, they’ll want to grow up to be just like him.
Except for #3 (Geeks are good at Math), this fits me pretty well. Of course I think the kids will be teaching me a thing or a million about technology in the coming years, it’s good to have a head start. I’d hate to be one of those parents who just can’t for the life of them understand why kids want to do Instant Messaging or have a cell phone at age 8. It’s going to happen, you better be ready for it.
