Topic	"You don't have any kids of your own. You wouldn't understand"

When youre a parent I dont think theres anything worse that a childless parenting expert who thinks they actually know what theyre talking about When a mother ignores her three year old who's screaming at the top of his voice on the bus for 20 minutes straight in a vain attempt to get her attention because she's busy endlessly texting -- but then finally he manages to break through her wilful deafness, and she shouts into his face: "SHUT UP YOU LITTLE FUCKING SHIT, OR I'M GOING TO FUCKING KNIFE YOU WHEN WE GET HOME!!!", and then she returns to her phone for a couple of minutes until she overhears a comment from another passenger, and she turns and yells at them, "WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU KNOW ABOUT IT, HAVE YOU GOT ANY KIDS?!!!"... I'm fucked if she has some priceless pearl of wisdom on parenting skill to impart to us humble, ignorant non-breeders. I've seen and known parents who set no boundaries and no rules for their children, who make no attempt whatsoever to teach them any consideration or respect for other people or their property. You don't need to have children of your own to understand that such things play an important role in children's socialization. I've seen parents who demonstrate appallingly little interest in or care for their children -- like the father who left his toddler behind in a high street crowd. The boy had become distracted and the father hadn't noticed because he was busy on his phone, and walked on ahead without paying any attention whatsoever to his son. My wife took the little boy's hand, and I ran after the father to tell him he'd left his son behind; he just gave me a sort of vacant look, a vague shrug and mumbled something like "Oh yeah ... right." Again: you don't need to have children to know that it's common sense to keep an eye on your kid's safety in a crowded public place, and that it's a poor father who neglects that responsibility. I could go on (and on), but you can't deny there are too many people out there who seem to think the job of parenting stops in the delivery room. We all have to live with the long-term consequences of shitty parenting, so I think we're all entitled to a say on the subject. --- Bury me deep. <cite>Firewerx posted [p:927983859] in "You ...
