Beat your chest once for each infraction

I Am guilty

I screwed up Bigtime

I Co-slept

I Drank too much wine

I let you Eat candy

I put you in Front of the laundry as a form of entertainment

I Gave you Gum

I was a Hypocrite

I let you cry It out

I Joked about leaving you at home when you didn’t put on your shoes

I Kidded that you were slower than a snail when getting your socks on

I Lost my temper

I Made empty threats

I Never played in the sandbox with you

I Overscheduled

I Promised too many treats

I Quenched your thirst with non-organic sugary juice

I ignored what I Read in the magazines

I Stared into space when I should have been listening

I Taught you how to curse

I Understimulated

I also drank too much Vodka

I Weaned too early

I eXpected you to potty train before the age of 3

I let you watch too much Youtube

I am responsible for thousands of Ziplock bags in landfills

Are you one of our 2%?

Did you know that only 2% of Forward readers donate to support our nonprofit newsroom? That 2% make it possible for millions to read the Forward without a paywall or subscription — removing any barriers to the full and fair Jewish story.

But while the Forward is free to read, it isn’t free to produce. Big stories — like deep dives into the antisemitism data, political scoops or reporting trips to college campuses  —  take months of research and fact-checking. All while we keep you informed of what you need to know each day.

Don’t just read the Forward — invest in it. Support our work today!
