Unlike actual medicine, laughter is free, has no side effects, and doesn’t require a prescription. It’s also wonderfully contagious, spreading smiles and good vibes wherever it goes. Today, we’re sharing a funny story about a conversation between a father and his curious young son that leads to some unexpected trouble.
One sunny afternoon, little Dave wandered into the living room where his dad was lounging on the sofa, flipping through channels on the TV. With curiosity sparkling in his eyes, Dave innocently asked, “Dad, why do grown-ups like to exercise in bed?”
Dad, caught completely off guard, froze mid-channel switch.
Meanwhile, Mom, who was cooking dinner in the kitchen, dropped her spoon and leaned closer to the door to hear her husband’s response. The pot could wait—this was prime drama.
Clearing his throat, Dad stammered, “Uh… because it makes grown-ups happy.” Dave’s face lit up. “I want to be happy too!”
Dad chuckled nervously, trying to navigate the unexpected conversation. “Well, you have to wait until you’re a grown-up, son.”
Dave tilted his head, puzzled. “But who’s going to exercise with me when I’m grown up?”
Feeling relieved that he had dodged what he thought was a tricky question, Dad replied, “Hopefully, when you’re married, your wife will.”
Dave nodded thoughtfully, but then his expression scrunched in confusion. “Oh…but Dad, if that’s true, why does our neighbor Sally exercise with you?”
At that moment, the sound of clattering erupted from the kitchen as Mom stormed in, her face a mix of rage and disbelief.
The ambulance arrived 10 minutes later to help the dad, who was now in quite a predicament.
And Dave? Well, he’s still waiting to understand why “bed exercises” cause so much chaos.
So, next time life feels heavy, remember to find a reason to laugh. It might not cure everything, but it’ll certainly make things a lot lighter. Please share this joke with someone you think could use a little brightness in their day!
