I’m sure my wife is going to love that I share my twisted
viewpoints on this, but here we go.
Why are there so many recalls on toys, cribs, food etc…?
Because this country is against personal responsibility (full
post on this topic coming soon) and getting lawsuit happy over the dumbest
things.
When I was a child, I slept with bumpers in my crib. Somehow
recently, that has become a horrific idea. Why? Suffocation. Great, am I the
only one who believes in survival of the fittest?
If your kid can not figure out how to turn their head 3
degrees to take a breath of fresh air not fabric… sorry, probably wouldn’t have
made it that far in life anyway.
I guess lunch meat is bad for kids now too? Give me a break,
I ate that crap for every other meal, and I turned out... well nvm.
Oh you are telling me there is a Chicken Pox vaccine??? Tell
me more sir. Oh
that’s wonderful, you pump kids with all sorts of shit, and
they still get chicken pox, but it’s not as bad? That deff. sounds like
something that makes sense. I forgot that one week of itchiness is just out of
the question. Stupid.
If we recalled every toy that a kid got hurt on, there would
be no more toys. How about instead of getting angry and suing the toy
manufacturer, you don’t leave the room while little Johnny is climbing on the
fake chair that only holds 3 pounds and trying to hold on to the fake kitchen
set that is in no way fastened to the wall. Stupid.
Lets teach a child that is getting bullied to cry about it
and have their mother call the school and complain and blah blah blah. Really?
How about we teach our kids that whole thing we learned about. How did it? go,“Sticks
and stones may break my bones but words will make me need therapy?”
How about we tell our kids that words, though they may be
hurtful, only have power if you let them. If someone is bullying you, chances
are they are getting it worse at home. Ignore it, and be proud of who you are.
But do we do this, no because this country is full of a bunch of pussies. There
will always be bullying in life, it doesn’t go away. There will be some in the
work place, on the subway, in Subway, and even at church. How about we build
our kids self-esteem and make them strong individuals who can be above it all,
instead of coddling them and saying “There, there Jimmy, it will be ok.” NO IT
WONT.
Man up kids. No, violence is not always the answer, but I am
sorry. If my kid comes home and complains that some kid knocks his books out of
his hands every day, I am going to tell him to do the obvious thing.
“Son, next time he does it, you need to laugh like you
thought it was funny, and then pull out that prison
shank that daddy showed you
how to make, and stab him in the jugular.”
Just seriously parents, do your kids a favor and teach them
about reality, not the fake sense of comfort that comes with a phone call and a
formal letter.
Another thing, spanking is not beating your child. Jesus. Do
you wonder why kids are growing up with no respect for authority? It is because
you had a family soul staring session to solve your problems instead of putting
the fear of god in them one hand at a time. Obviously, there are limits to this
but ask your grandparents what happened the first time they called their mom a
name.
I understand times change, and you have to adapt along with
society, but it is getting ridiculous. Lets take it down a notch and go back to
reality, that is all I am asking.
Forever in favor of not babying our babies young or old,
Jake
