Family Circus: It's APPARENT you're A PARENT...

First of all, when you start your comic with a rhyme, the whole thing should be in rhyme. That it's not is very disappointing. Secondly, I assume that the focus on the parents here is what's supposed to justify the setting apart of these cartoons into a single Sunday comic, but there's no real reason these couldn't have worked as daily cartoons. So it's kind of lazy in that way, too.

As for the individual cartoons themselves: the first one is hilarious because Bill and Thel evidently sleep in separate beds;* the second one is hilarious because nobody would ever actually say this; and the third one is hilarious because "peanut butter" is clearly a euphemism for "baby shit."

*This is not surprising.

    -If excuse yourself at a work meeting by saying "I have to go potty!"
    -If you miss an easy putt, you respond "Ooh, you naughty ball!"
    -If you say to a travel agent "I think I'll go by choo-choo train."
    -The only snacks you have for your Super Bowl buddies are M&M's.
