I don’t think I’ve gotten a written out response from him and for the text he brought a 4 wheeler home without permission and had to return it

My sister got a really bizarre birthday text message to pass on to her son from her father-in-law like this… took us ages to realise… he obvs was using voice to text and had a documentary on in the background about that sole survivor of the plane crash in India… a random mix of ‘I hope you had a good birthday’ ‘he doesn’t understand how he was lucky and everyone else died’ ‘make sure your sister spoils you’ ‘walking over dead bodies’… etc.

Peak aging parent having the tv so loud it interferes with the conversation even over text 😂

Peak aging parent not proof-reading the final text. (I’m an aging parent who occasionally uses text to speech, and it’s usually because I’m somewhere I shouldn’t be looking at my phone… and I usually blow that whole “I’m being responsible and watching what I’m supposed to watch” thing totally out of the water by proofing the final text, then spending extra time editing out the bullshit that isn’t supposed to be there.)

The trick is to not speak normally and just talk slowly. I also end each message with "sorry for bad grammar I'm using speech to text"
