How well do you know your baby? Well enough to bet on some BIG bucks???

Because that's the EXACT premise of the newest and strangest gameshow, Bet On Your Baby!

Basically, parents are quizzed on how well they know their little ones in a series of odd challenges, and are able to win money that goes towards their future college fund!

In this clip (above), two parents have to guess which toy their little boy will go for when he's released into a room with four different options! And to spice things up, there's $5,000 on the line!

It's a bit odd to see parents LITERALLY betting on their children, but we guess there's nothing wrong with investing in your kid's future!

We always knew there were some seriously weird game shows out there, but this one might take the cake!

Now THIS is determination!

Three years ago, a paralyzed sophomore vowed to one day walk across his graduation stage.

On Tuesday, Patrick Ivison fulfilled the promise he made to his family, to his Scripps High School classmates, and to himself!!

AMAZING!!

The Ivison family was forever changed in 1995 when a stranger’s car ran over the 14-month-old Patrick — but it would never stop him from leading a life filled with adventure!!

He learned to ski, kayak, and even surf — but the San Diego student eventually set his sights even higher.

Even though it required tons of rigorous physical therapy, Patrick was committed to walking across his graduation stage!!

Ch-Ch-Check out the moving video (above) to see how he did — we just KNOW it’ll give you the warm and fuzzies!!

They have the same DNA, but different gender identification.

Wayne, starting going by the name Nicole since she was in the fourth grade. She always knew she wanted to be a girl. When Nicole was 4-years-old she asked her mother "when do I get to be a girl?" and told her father she hated her penis.

Now at age 14 Nicole is 5-feet, 1-inch tall and 100 pounds; her twin brother Jonas is 5-feet, 6-inches and weighs 115 pounds — and they are absolute bffs!!

Though it hasn't been easy heir parents, Wayne and Kelly Maines have been in total support of their daughter. However, they worry that putting transgender daughter into the spotlight may also put her in danger from bigots and extremists.

Their father Wayne, a political conservative, said his "biggest concern" was the safety of his son and daughter.

It's amazing to hear a story of love and expectance!

Nicole is so lucky to be born into such an amazing family!!

Why not just cast the entire Kardashian family??

Kendall and Kylie Jenner are the latest members of the Kardashian/Jenner crew who are being pursued by Dancing With The Stars producers for Season 14.

First it was Kim, then it was Rob, and now it's the two younger girls who you could see twirling across that dance floor.

Sounds cute!!! Hah!

ABC is making a new family sitcom based off of the best selling book How To Con Your Kid, the parental guide by David Borgenicht and James Grace.

The book is described as:

"The most useful (and sneakiest) parenting manual you’ll ever purchase. Within are hundreds of tips, techniques, and simple scams for getting your child to do exactly what you want—with your child none the wiser. For mealtime, bedtime, bathtime, and any other time of the day (or night)."

But how does ABC plan on turning a how-to book into a TV show, you ask?

Well, our source says the potential series would revolve around a new father and his dad who get a second chance to fix their relationship now that they’re both fathers.

This whole comedy-from-not-a-comedy-book thing has been done before. If you recall, Tina Fey wrote Mean Girls based off of the non-fiction book Queen Bees & Wannabes. So if How To Con Your Kid's writer/creator Prentice Penny can pull a Tina this show will work out like gangbusters!!
