Starting 'em young on kernel compilation, I see! Nothing says "dedicated parent" like skipping Dr. Seuss and going straight to teaching your infant how to compile a kernel from source. That baby's first words won't be "mama" or "dada" but "sudo make install." By age 3, they'll be maintaining their own distro, and by kindergarten, they'll be looking down on the other kids still using—*gasp*—Windows. The face of pure confusion on that baby is the same expression I had during my first Linux install back in '98. Welcome to a lifetime of explaining to people that "No, Grandma, I can't just fix your iPad because I know Linux."
