Slight tangent here but…
Is it me or what the hell is going on with kids these days? They all say “don’t liky!!” and the parents go “okaaaay, here is some candy, then!”
When I was a kid you got food and you ate it. I mostly liked it but of there was a meal that wasn’t my favorite, then sucks to be me, gotta eat it. I never once told my mom they I didn’t like the food, as I knew she worked hard to prepare it, and I had some basic respect and decency and understanding that she was doing what was best for me.
It was the same for other kids as far as I could tell.
Now, all around me I see these families and ALL have the same with the kids. I’m not trying to say we need to go back to the “good ol’” 1950’s but for fracks sake, can we instill just a little bit of obedience and discipline in kids? Sometimes when a kid asks why it’s okay to say “because I said so” and a small slap in the butt when a kid goes all off the rails neither hurt anyone. It certainly didn’t hurt me when I tested for boundaries and was shown where those boundaries were. No, I’m not advocating violence in children, I’m advocating to put more limits to kids, I feel there is an imbalance.
Good
Now do the same with Apple, Microsoft, Amazon, Comcast, Disney, all the current major Hollywood film studios, all the major internet providers, major airlines, and we’re going in the right direction of a start.
