Reply to comment by That_Shrub in I love my kids, but can’t stand my wife. Is there any way to salvage what's left of this family? by lightingnations

Why chicken drumsticks tho? That's so impractical. But in the state of mind of the wife I shouldn't be surprised

Not literal chicken legs lol. That and the eraser nubs are similes in action.

It's very illogical, I agree. At least eraser arms has one use for them. Chicken legs though?

Apart from helping his classmates with their homework I can't think of another situation having a pair of erasers instead of human arms could be of any use.

Ever unclog a ballpoint pen by putting the tip on an eraser and twisting? See, erasers can make pencil lines go away and ink lines appear!

I'm learning all sorts of things today

Tip of an eraser is a good emergency earring backing in a pinch, too

Thar could be a reason. But its seems so random, she put chicken drumsticks in the son and erasers in the daughter . Like it was the first items she put her hands on..
