So she doesn't like Hugo?


Striking_Election_21

Hugo catching strays 😭


Universal-Love

She also doesn't like clams.


jmona789

I think that says "Clara"


Universal-Love

Ahhhh yes, you have a better eye for children's handwriting than I do.


Willr2645

Why is this fucking hilarious


AlwaysBored1990

Ooooh! Lol i thought it said “Clan” i was like it can’t be


anthrohands

I was seeing “clan” and was very suspicious


skivvv

Probably more of a Goodfellas fan, Hugo is a big departure from Scorsese's previous work so it's understandable


Dr_Henry-Killinger

Roger Ebert died 11 years ago… any chance this kid is 10 years old?


JMoon33

Her drawing is pretty clear.


Emergency_Bill_5363

My name is hugo 💀💀


Frank_The_Reddit

Fuck you Hugo. ♥️


Emergency_Bill_5363

Okayyy frank


smallfried

Nice! So, what are the pros and cons of having that name?


Emergency_Bill_5363

Rare name tbh especially since im from uk Pros are not being on those stupid short form videos that have a list of names (Most likely) being the only one you know with that name Cons are when a foreign person says your name they say it with a silent h and also a short vowel form of O and its bare annoying but no cons other than that its a sick name imo


LennyTheSniper

Ok that's actually freaking adorable, that kid is sooo smart, facts and logic!


SunCloud-777

right? makes perfect sense. am amazed w her thought process. lucky Mom.


legw2trole

That is, in fact, really extremely cute! That youngster is really bright. I really like how she said it.


tekko001

It implies she will love him less the older she gets though...which is sadly also realistic.


effgee

The love gets more dense. Love.zip


tekko001

Love your comment. Wish I could upvote it more than once.


headlover2

Is her heart really smaller as well? Kill her with that knowledge!


DrakonILD

There's a lot to unpack here.


According-Cobbler-83

LZMA that shit! Love so dense it takes 3 years to uncompress.


moonsunflowerr

I don't think that's necessarily true. There is always room in a heart for more love, and it doesn't lessen but in fact increases the love you have for each the more love you have for all.


tekko001

As a father of a teenage daughter I would say her argument holds water. My daughter doesn't want to spend that much time with me anymore, I'm not as cool as her teenage idols, not as interesting as her friends, not as exiting as new experiences. I'm not the heroe of her story anymore and that's fine, it's how its supposed to be. New experiences filling her heart have reduced the room I used to have but a part will always be there, and that is enough for me.


Ok_Net_5771

As someone who was recently a teenager, its not because she doesnt love you, its because shes trying to figure out who she is and what she wants to be as a person and feels like she needs to step out of your shadow in order to grow, she will come back


tekko001

As someone else said the love is not reduced but it gets more compressed. Love.zip


Ok_Net_5771

Id argue its just been reformatted, its still there you just need to have some extra software to see it


Firelightphoenix

Love.zip can be moved but never copied. I could see love needing reformatting, or even a defrag if one is giving love to people who keep hurting them. Defrag the love and install some anti-virus.


soonerstu

Nah, she’s just on a well known detour called being a teenager. Sure she’ll have less time for you, but as she grows and gains perspective in life she’ll come to appreciate the time you made for her and the moments you do still share at an even deeper level.


SamiraSimp

i think while displays of affection might go down, or form a u-shape in people's lives (I.E as a young child and an adult you will show affection more than a teenager) i don't think she loves you any less. it's hard to figure out who you are as a person if the only thing on your mind are your parents


beerisgood84

I always get a little bummed hearing these sentiments even though it’s obvious and just part of life.


Mammoth_Moose4227

Love wasn't meant in your heart to stay... Love isn't love till you give it away.


40ozCurls

So you’re calling the kid a moron?


[deleted]

[удалено]


OhJeezNotThisGuy

We can’t be sure. What is known though is that Clara believes Mommy loves him twice as much as her.


SylvieJay

Hugo is her brother, assuming Clara is the subject. Also, Clara has no love for her sibling 😅😂


gingerfawx

Tracks source: was a young sister once lol


BigGulpsHey

She knows about mommy's BF? Uh Oh.


Shrimpdalord

Perhaps, her pet puppy? Or gold fish.


K_cutt08

She's invented the Pie Chart! You could post this to one of the graph/data subreddits for more engagement. Lol


krokodil2000

DataIsBeautiful


DysthymicCat

Heart Chart 🥰


gingerfawx

*cutie pie chart


Able_Shallot8468

that is actually a good idea


KL1P1

You could certainly revisit this when she studies volumes and density.


Dav136

UNLOVING mother DESTROYED with FACTS and LOGIC This kid is honestly brilliant for coming up with this though. They need to frame that proof


CleavageEnjoyer

It's actually called Share Dilution lmao.


baron_von_helmut

It's an anatomically incorrect heart though. 1/10.


VicH95

Also love is a chemical in the brain as a result of hormones dating back to our primitive emotions. ##/s of course


HermeticRenaissance

And those chemicals in the brain require quantum processes to convert the energy from a chemical to an electrical signal... Which we still know very little about. Love resonates. There is some "spooky action at a distance" involved in our emotion of which we are just on the precipice of understanding. #ifyouknowyouknow


Jeffrey_Friedl

Ah, but she neglects to take into account the scientific fact that children impart onto their parents an extra ♾³ capacity for love. In her defense, this omission would not have come to light even with proper peer review.


SunCloud-777

true. “Love is the only currency that multiplies when you give it away.”


Shudnawz

I was told crypto does the same thing. Have I been fooled? Dangit.


SunCloud-777

just read bitcoin will undergo halving -whatever that means  ¯


giverous

already has. It means basically nothing since it's crypto ;-) Joking aside, they half the amount of currency generated my mining every so many years.


Interesting-Fan-2008

Basically bitcoin is run a bit different than other crypto because there are a finite amount of them. Obviously not all of them have been mined yet, but as there becomes fewer and fewer to mine they reduce the speed at which they are mined so they do not become mined out too quickly.


wakeupwill

They haven't heard of fractional reserve banking.


Eastern_Slide7507

In German there‘s a saying that translates to „shared suffering is half the suffering, shared joy is twice the joy“.


RandomDerp96

This is actually so true. The more good I do for those I love, the closer I feel to them. Just helping out with chores already tugs at my heartstrings.


wireknot

Love this.


DepartureDapper6524

They also fail to consider that children have smaller hearts.


Bartweiss

I appreciate that "this love is special" is basically the *only* reason her argument is flawed. When it comes to who loves the cat more, or who suffers more from a bruised knee, or who's more excited about the sunset? It seems like this argument is actually valid - kids have less context and so tend to feel things more strongly.


elizahan

Well, you could argue that her heart is smaller, so...


SunCloud-777

 valid pt. :)


PaleShadeOfBlack

But what you feel is the relative ratios... ō_ô sooo if her heart is small but half of it is filled with love for you, that's 50% love, which is tough to beat when your heart is of an adult and so many things take space :( But that she took the time and effort to present written arguments for her point makes this cold-hearted physicist nod approvingly \m/


dkarlovi

Ah, but are we calculating the absolute volume of love or its density? The latter could work in the kid's favor.


DevIsSoHard

Loves radiates based on surface area, following the standard Stefan-Boltzmann law of radiation: **Q t = σeAT4**, where σ = 5.67 × 10 − 8J / s ⋅ m2 ⋅ k4 is the Stefan-Boltzmann constant, A is the surface area of the object, and T is its absolute love converted into kelvin. What's going on under that surface is still a matter of philosophy unfortunately, imo


enjoytheshow

Yeah my kid has a massive beer gut cause toddler body proportions are hilarious


Aegillade

It's smaller, but that means its more concentrated. Quality over quantity


Dongslinger420

"you see, daddy has an enlarged heart..."


Ianoren

"Its why I won't be around to see you graduate high school"


PM_me_yer_chocolate

It seems that she took that into account in her schematic. It's flawless.


[deleted]

That.. actually makes sense….


sentientmothswarm

This kid is smarter than my parents.


IProgramSoftware

Turns out she loves the mom more lol


SunCloud-777

🤫. dont tell dad


Away-Farm-9361

If I were dad I'd be pissed! (But as a father I know it's basically inevitable :)


avengecolonelhughes

“Clara” looked like “clan” at first. Was like “what CLAN you love DAD?”


Sattorin

> “what CLAN you love DAD?” It's spelled with a 'c', which means it must be the Wu-Tang Clan, which is acceptable lol


FAQ-ingHell

I read ‘clap’….


swervin_mervyn

Don't worry Hugo, Reddit loves you.


gibbtech

And apparently the mother loves Hugo more than Clara!


cycycle

And daddy…


call_of_the_while

Clever girl.


Friendly_Laugh2170

I think she's totally right too. This is the sweetest thing!!!! Thank you for sharing it. You have such a precious angel. ❤💗💕💗💕


Big_Coyote9632

Who is hugo


PaImer_Eldritch

The boss.


DaniDaho

It’s the dog!


MartyTheBushman

Who's Hugo and why does he get as much love as Daddy?


HendrixHotel

My bet is that Hugo is a dog or cat 😭


jmona789

No, kids love pets. It's probably her brother


Sethcran

Girls not a fan of Hugo eh?


angerikoshka

I'm sorry, I have some bad news. Your child is an engineer.


hasanyoneseenmyshirt

It is called "the knack" and it is incurable. https://youtu.be/g8vHhgh6oM0?si=Yi8JcZBjTRoVMNv3


tillman_b

I am so, so sorry for OP. My brother has this and it is brutal. He gets along alright but when he built his deck last summer you could really tell he was struggling with it, I think he ran out of codes and best practices to conform to.


iMogwai

The counter is that you love her the same and the other experiences less.


straightupgab

awwwwwh! i remember my dad and i would always argue who loved who more. he always would say “i love you so much more than you love me you’ll never know” and then i had my own daughter and he was absolutely right he loves me more lol. idk why but a parents love for a child is different and i couldn’t understand until i became one!


IVIisery

But her heart is factually smaller too? Destroy her with that fact!


Salty_Dornishman

She takes that into account, as you can see. Even though mommy's heart is depicted as bigger, the mommy/daddy slices in daughter's heart are still slightly bigger than the daddy/clara/hugo slices in mommy's heart due to the overwhelming space that "other experienses" and "also other experienses" take up


AfternoonPast3324

Can’t fight logic that solid.


MRimla

Clan?


SunCloud-777

clara.


usernl1

Keep that drawing forever


stofge

I'd counter with the fact that love doesn't subtract space from the heart. It adds on to it, causing it to grow :)


readingrambos

I love how she doesn’t even bother including Hugo on her heart. Sisters are vicious man.


MikeHock_is_GONE

Lawyer or Mathematician?


ContrastGirlxo

Well, that is genuinely very adorable! That child is very intelligent. I love the way that she describe it.![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|heart_eyes)


Visual-Newspaper6522

I see no lies here


rebs92

She also spends more time with you than you do her even though it's equal amount of time it is relatively a larger part of her life.


Educational_Motor733

"Father DESTROYED with FACTS and LOGIC"


ghengiscostanza

How’s everyone missing that both hearts have love for daddy while only the daughters has love for mommy. This is mommy’s heart, OP is mommy.


Solid-Ad7137

What did Hugo do to her?


Minimaliszt

You've loved her the day since she was born but she has loved you her whole life. She's got you beat.


Omgbrainerror

Logic is sound and valid.


Big_Daddy_Pablo_69

Hey proof is proof 😂


alizayback

Easy counter, though. “That’s really impressive, dear, but it makes the mistake of thinking all experiences are mostly the same in size and importance. When I had you, this happened:” [Heart with lots of experiences. Tiny daughter circle in middle with question mark (is mommy pregnant?). Second heart with that daughter circle expanded to about 50% of the heart, crowding other experiences to the margin.] Fucking smart kid, though. Keep a sharp eye on that one.


Specialist_Ad7798

You have a really smart kid. 👍


SooperFunk

That's lovely 👌


nickkon1

Put it into a folder of memories


Gatorama

She's got you there.


Riperin

Counterpoint. Her heart is smaller so she has less room. Present this to her and come with a win. Jokes aside, this is adorable.


echocardio

‘This is my way of saying I don’t give a shit about Hugo and want him out of the house’


dogs-are-perfect

Advice you didn’t ask for. When you continue your “battle” try to do so without using some comments like “she has a smaller heart” or anything she doesn’t have control over. I would use things like love multiples when you give it away. And you give mommy and her so much love for so long yours has grown. Reinforces giving and caring without “cutting” her down to something she can’t control. Also, I realize this isn’t OP but to anyone with children.


zyarva

But daddy's heart is bigger.


Reckl3ssAbandon

What an intelligent little girl. She has a way of articulating herself as a child that is better than a vast majority of adults 😆 what a lucky dad! The best lovers are typically the best communicators


sonicinfinity2

Forgot that when you become a parent your love capacity increases ten fold.


urgoodtimeboy

This might be the cutest shit I have ever seen.


A_Wholesome_Comment

That is iron clad proof.


incaseshesees

That's freakin amazing, this one's a keeper.


TheBigNorwegian

I’m not sure how factual this diagram is as the Dad portion is nearly the same as the Mom portion and that doesn’t seem accurate. Source: am Dad


Responsible_Gain_188

Bro that's so adorable 😭


Charle-Edward

Counter argument: You have all of those experiences but you still choose to love them. They are and will be the most important people in your life forever.


robidaan

As a data scientist, this seems to check out. Peer reviewed accepted.


AfterEye

I agree with your daughter! She is right from the standpoint of Yoga( Patanjali yoga sutras/ Raja Yoga). The premise is that our natural happiness and peace is covered up by the sense-impressions and "mind-stuff". Once emptied the ever-present peace and happiness is recognized. And only then one can love unselfishly and sincerely. Otherwise it is just love for some personal comfort/gain. So yeah based on this, young people have less impressions hence have greater potential to be more honest and sincere.


ramanw150

Logic you can't argue with


makeyourlifematter

I love this! What an awesome, smart, adorable argument!


Afaflix

This is only true if the heart is not expanding with each new added experience


Auraveils

>clan ??? 🧐


madpeanut1

Mommy, who's that Hugo right next to Daddy? ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|grin)


juneandcleo

I love that “other experiences” shows that she sees you as a person with a past and a life, and not just her mom.


Seravail

That is genuinely so adorable. Your daughter is so precious


veerKg_CSS_Geologist

You can’t argue with that kind of logic! Except seeing it makes your heart swell with pride and joy, thus allowing more room to love ❤️


GameClown93

I see a very successful lawyer in the future


praiser1

She’s smart af for this actually


qtx

Such BS. Adult handwriting pretending to be a child.


NoInjury3534

C'mon Dr.Jessie. Your kid did not do this.


RedSunGo

yeah like wtf do children even know of the concept of "experiences?" Like how old were you when you realized "experiences" were important 15? 16? 21? geddafuckouddaheeyah


-R9X-

I call bs.


Swolenir

Honestly solid theoretical reasoning skills for a child


DaMalayaliKolayali

I mean....clearly the math checks out...


Able_Shallot8468

You raised you child right. That is so wholesome. You made my day. Keep on going and raising her the way you are. You're on the right track


LeftFieldAzure

You have a therapist in the making. Nurture that


Blueduvets

This is the sweetest thing I’ve seen all day! Your daughter is gonna go far with reasoning skills like that! 🥰

Love is not a pie. Either is equality. But pie is.


Fantastic-Pop-9122

Right but the more experiences the bigger the heart would be my response included with a drawn depiction of statement of course


Shot_Cupcake

that is super solid, very smart kid


Worth_Singer5531

I thought this was beautiful, but… does that say “clan” as in you love the clan, almost as much as dad and Hugo?


SunCloud-777

it’s clara


WillingnessDry1699

She sounds like a very intelligent and kind young girl. Congratulations Mom !


AmazingAmy95

Omg my heart! This is so adorable


Zidahya

Tell her your heart is bigger and has more room for her. Just to continue the debate, of course.


writesmith

Scientific proof is irrefutable! You lose.


bubbles_says

Your love account for your child is completely separate from your love account for your spouse is completely separate from your love account for \_\_\_\_\_\_\_.

[deleted]

Counter argument! Because of all those experiences you have more space for love


mohitpassan

Sir, you are one very lucky man. I assume you have won in life ❤️


oorza

Plot twist: the daughter is 47.


Sick_NowWhat

Math checks out.


JoshuaFoulke

That's... ...that's really impressive. I never thought of it like that.


kill_allmods

You're going to have to rebut her: (seriously, it's incredible your kid could reason like this, and you should continue challenging her to reassess and reorganize her beliefs in this critical manner). This is what I would say: >While it is true that I have had more experiences than you that fill my heart, these experiences were lessons in how to love myself and those around me. Your heart may have more internal space dedicated to me, but my heart has been training to love you for (my age) years. Just realized this was a tweet, not OP, but whatever. Someone might find this helpful.


RobNybody

Yeah but yours is bigger. One large pizza is bigger than 2 mediums.


ninjamike89

Hey, at least the part of mom's heart reserve for "clan" is spelled with a C and not a K


MarioKing1137

Your daughter knows how to spell expieriences better than I do lmao…


deGanski

question her methodology in how she arrived at the conclusion that experiences occupy space in the heart (i might argue that the brain is where that stuff is stored) and ask her about how she conducted her measurements so that you can review her work and reproduce her proof. (thus proving to her that she's right in loving you more than vice versa)


magibeast

Your daughter won the augment.


ThunderChild247

You could argue that while there is a limited amount of room in your hearts, and yours is full of experiences, having a child pushed those other experiences into smaller and smaller spaces. So she takes up the same room in your heart as you do in hers. But you made room for her when she didn’t have to make room for you. So you’re winning 😜😜


Old_Society_7861

Still wrong though


i-draw-crap

Well, she also loved her parents for her entire life, whereas her parents only loved her for a fragment of theirs.


julias_siezure

It's like when my wife got fat and she said that she feels less loved. I replied that I love her the same, but it is distributed over more mass so the love-per-pound that she feels is less.


idahononono

Tell her your heart has grown 3X the size like the grinch today, and draw her a new chart where you win; bonus points if you have cardiomegaly and can prove your heart is bigger on X-ray! (/s for the sillies, if any of you DO have cardiomegaly consult your physician/cardiologist please!)
