It鈥檚 no Gangnam Style, but Bluefish TV鈥檚 鈥淭he Parent Rap鈥 video is making waves 鈥 at least among the decidedly-no-longer-cool (ever cool?) parenting set. (Of which, I will admit, I am a card-carrying member.)聽

Now, there are times when a video posted by multiple friends on Facebook is funny. And there are times when it is...聽 well... a bit close to home. We鈥檙e not quite sure into which category this one falls. You be the judge. And then help explain to me why I am both laughing and feeling a bit uncomfortable while I watch it. (Is it that first image of the living room destroyed by toddlers?聽 The suburban white parents trying to look hard core?聽 The fact that I am still wearing some of my toddler鈥檚 breakfast?)聽聽
