Goodbye… For Good?
Parenting often blends sweet and unsettling moments, especially regarding children’s innocent remarks. One night, after putting his two-year-old son to bed, a father experienced an unexpected twist to their usual bedtime routine. After bidding goodnight, the child responded with an unexpected and disturbing “goodbye.”

The choice of “goodbye” instead of the customary “goodnight” carried an eerie undertone, even though the child likely didn’t grasp the gravity of his words. Despite understanding that his son was likely experimenting with language and phrases, the father couldn’t shake the disquieting feeling. Throughout the night, he repeatedly checked on his son, driven by concern and a desire to reassure himself that all was well.
