9735/21654My son is 9 and thus our senses of humour are pretty much at exactly the same level now and I enjoy nothing more than laughing with my boy. I would enjoy laughing with my daughter as much, but she doesn't think I am funny and so I really have to catch her unawares to make her laugh. Do I push the boat out and try and go for the unattainable but more satisfying audience or accept that she's right and that my stuff isn't for anyone over the mental age of 10 and just stick to laughing with Ernie?
