Put more simply, sometimes you are the idiot. Don't make it worse for everyone by acting like it.

Edit: that's a generic 'you', in case it's not obvious, not a reference to the parent.

Even if you specifically aren't the idiot (though I often am), never spend your time working around the idiot. Any time you work around an idiot, you've done more work and the idiot will still be there...

I agree 100%. We are all idiots now and then, even when we're not purposefully trying to be by adding ducks.

Agreed (although there are few things funnier than a well-placed duck)
