It's pretty hard to get your own

kids to laugh at a joke. They are either too young to get it, or too cool to think it's funny.

On a similar

note, I read somewhere that Billy Joel's teenage daughter asked him to "PULEEEZ... stop singing in the car." Then

again comedy writer Dave Barry once picked his son up from middle school in the Oscar Meyer Wiener Wagon, which is

probably going over the top in trying to get your teen to think you have a sense of humor.
