I’ll be sharing regular tips on how you can seal wife approval for those special gadgets, and in this first instalment I’m giving you the underlying principal that should influence all of your future gadget purchases – always, always, always make a link to your child.

No matter how tenuous the connection between a gadget and your offspring, you simply must make that link in order to turn the gadget into a Dadget and make it impossible for your wife to say no.  Let me show you how this works:

“Darling, I’ve seen this great game that Henry will absolutely love.  It’s a snakes & ladders shot glass set!”

“Did you say ‘shot glass’?”

“Yeah!  How cool will it be if we can play games with him and get him to eat his mashed up carrots from all these little glasses?!”

“Er, yes, actually that sounds like a great idea.  Buy one now.  And get yourself a new torch while you’re online, too.”

“I love you.”
