Being a nerdy parent

For a parenting blog contest, I put together a video discussing being a nerdy parent and what that means in trying to raise a child. So far my year and a half old son can identify the Incredible Hulk in a comic book and is getting a good grasp of some of my other nerdiness. I'm going to hold off on introducing Pathfinder until he can at least talk.

In a bit of shameless self-promotion, my video is right here (Charlie Brooks, of course). It's currently in the midst of a contest, so vote for it if you like.

Anyone else have some nerdy parent stories? As I'm still a bit new to this whole parenting thing, I'd love to hear what I might have in store.


At 6 my son was correcting adult players on the 3.0 rules. He also told them how to get passed 3 really fiendish traps that had them stumped. I didn't not coach him.

Nerd parents rock.

Freudian slip?


My 6-year-old played Pathfinder.
