But I, and this is the best part about being a grown-up. Okay, guys, here's what happens when you're an adult with a family and kids. You don't have to do shit anymore. Yeah. You don't have to go see anybody. You do your own thing. You could just tell people like, oh, no, I'm not coming this year. I'm doing my own thing. And everybody has to accept it. I feel like, listen, it's time now in 2025. And I've met a lot of parents to do the same thing. It's time to admit that you take advantage of your kids in that regard where it's like we're not going anywhere

you know the kids right like i was talking when we were talking to um marri the day she's like yeah i can

leave anytime i want i could just be like oh the kids yeah we got to go the kids sorry guys the kids
