0:00.0	What's the weirdest thing a parent found out about their child?
0:04.0	The first real noises that my baby daughter learnt to make, other than crying, of course, were growls.
0:09.8	We found out in the middle of the night, through the baby monitor.
0:14.0	The creepiest thing I ever discovered while babysitting was that this seven-year-old had a dead fly pile.
0:19.1	He made a game out of catching flies with his
0:21.3	bare hands, but unlike normal people who had just walked away from the scene of the crime,

1:02.5	But that wouldn't be very nice. Finish your dinner and then you can have dessert. She started eating
1:07.4	again and stopped mid-bite. We can fit Rocky in the microwave.
1:13.5	Rocky is an even smaller Pomeranian.
1:15.4	I say, let's not do that.
1:16.9	It freaked me out a little bit.
1:19.4	Why did she want to put her dogs in the kitchen appliances?
1:23.9	About two weeks ago, my wife was playing outside with our kids.
