genetics is a real thing: evidence in my son is a wiseass, like his dad

Well, it looks like the acorn doesn't fall far from the tree. My son has taken on some of characteristics of his father: sarcasm and a willingness to 'cross-the-line' with comments. Take these into consideration...

On the night of my wife's first night on since delivering our 4th baby, she couldn't find anything nice to wear that fit her - it was only two weeks since the birth. My son, arriving in the bedroom could tell something was bothering her and asked. When my wife replied she couldn't find anything that fit, he asked, "Is that because you are fat?"

When told that was not nice, he decided to reword his question, "Is it because you take up more space now?.....(5 second pause)...because you are fat?"
