In a humorous four-panel comic strip by the talented artist WayneGio, the often unpredictable priorities of children are hilariously portrayed. Titled "NOT SO GOOD AT THIS," the comic features a mother and her child, both sporting distinctive glasses—green for the mother and yellow for the child—set against a purple background.

In the first panel, the child innocently asks, "Mother, can I have thirty dollars?" The mother, wearing a somewhat neutral expression, looks at the child. The conversation takes a relatable turn in the second panel where the mother, with an affectionate arm around the child, questions, "Why do you need money? You’re just a kid." The child then passionately exclaims, "POKEMON CARDS!!!" in the third panel, eliciting a smile from the mother who hands over the money.

The final panel, humorously divided into two parts with a label "$30 LATER," reveals the true twist. The child, now alone, looks satisfied holding a bottle of what appears to be soda, with no Pokémon cards in sight.

Reddit users have had a field day with this comic strip. One user humorously remarked, "Kind of depressing tbh," while another skeptically commented, "Hold up, he got b**** AND smokes with 30 bucks? In what f***in universe?" Another user empathetically added, "Bro was goin through it 😭," and yet another reminisced, "Me irl when I was young."

The comic strip resonates with many, highlighting a universal truth about children and their often whimsical priorities. As one user pointed out, "Knowing my kid he’d probably split it as close to the middle as possible—a pack of Pokémon cards and candy with the rest if I gave him $10." Another simply concluded, "Kids."

The comment section also saw a philosophical note with a user quoting, "Once legends said 'children are a form of god'."

WayneGio's comic strip perfectly encapsulates the humorous unpredictability of children, making it a delightful read for parents and Pokémon fans alike.
