TM 274--What question do you most dread?
"When can we be superheroes like you, Dad?"
Definitely dread that one, even if I know it's coming, and someday really soon. I mean--Jai and Iris are--physically--not much younger than I was when I started out. So, yeah, I know it's going to come, and soon, and I... really don't know how I'm going to handle it.
I mean--it would be kind of hypocritical if I said no, right? I mean--I did the Kid Flash thing, and now I'm doing the Flash thing, and it would be really really wrong to tell my kids no. Right?
Except I look at my pre-adolescents, and I kind of have to ask myself just a little... "What were all those guys thinking?" I mean--kids? Really? Even kids with powers. Just... I'm not saying I have any regrets ,because I really don't. I like who I am. I like my life. I like the places my weird and wacky life has taken me. I just... would probably think twice before introducing a kid to it. The things we do? Crazy dangerous. And I'm not sure I want my babies in that kind of danger.
So... yeah. Dreading that question. A lot.
