10 Flufftober Parental Prompts
*Can be used with kids, adopted kids, pets, aliens...whatever, really. Also don’t need to be used in order or specifically for Flufftober. I might add some more in later based on popularity.*
(1) Baking cookies
(2) Burn
(3) Late night essay/school project
BONUS: The Parent!figure swears up and down they’re not going to help the Child!figure because really, they should know better than to leave things to the last minute, but then they end up sitting down with them and helping them anyway.
DOUBLE BONUS: The Parent!figure is terrible at the subject, bad, if not much worse, than their child is.
TRIPLE BONUS: The Parent!figure eventually ends up either doing the entire thing for their Child!figure because “growing children need their rest”.
TRIPLE TRIPLE BONUS: The Parent!figure copies the entire thing from a sketchy website and teaches their Child!figure how to bullshit their way through explaining it to the teacher.
(4) Having to bail their Child!figure out of school detention/the principals office.
(5) Nightmares.
(6) Middle of the night snacking (can be used with #1)
(7) Attachment (specifically: “I-didn’t-mean-to-adopt-this-kid-it-just-kind-of-happened-idk-they’re-kinda-cute” “You-have-baby-fever!” Bonus points if the AdoptiveParent!figure in question is in denial and keeps making up absurd excuses as to why they suddenly want to protect the Child!figure).
(8) Lying (Child!figure is a horrible liar).
(9) Mean bullies at school (Bonus points if the Parent!figure doesn’t tell their kid to “talk it out” and instead, teaches them how to kick the bullies’ asses)
(10) Parent-Teacher Conferences.
