parents and non parents.

Kids just like people that give then attention. Not always the best judges though
 
oh yeah the cold hearted ignorant doesnt know anything unempathetic monster.

Heard it before.

Got another insult to call me?
 
I totally get where they are coming from though.
The people that make the best dog owners are the people that can't stand them, find them disgusting, can't stand being around them, want to segregate them from the rest of society and think that other people that own dogs are idiots.
They definitely make the best dog owners.
No quesiton.
 
I didn't read it as an insult, more a matter of fact.

You have shown absolutely no recognition of the fact that children are people, with their own personalites, and so the racist/homophobe arguments, while extreme, are actually kind of relevant - you have objectified an entire spectrum of humanity and decided you don't like them.

You've also said that your dislike of the smell of poop is more important to you than looking after people you love, and that you wouldn't want to be around anyone with a condition or disability that affected their behaviour or bodily functions - again, without even considering their worth as a person.

Hardly paints the picture of an empathic personality. But it also doesn't mean that you're a lesser person because of it. It's an observation, not an insult.
 
To me this is and example of "cake and eat it".
Blade want's to express extreme child disgust and desire to minimise them in general society (maybe make them travel on a different part of the bus and be banned from restaurants perhaps?) while simultanesouly claiming to be an authority on parenthood.
That makes no sense whatsoever.
 
Grow up.

You've consistently demonstrated a distinct lack of empathy and have gone so far as to say you would only care for your loved ones on your terms, their needs or the situation would only be met if you didn't have to deal with things that make you uncomfortable.

Do you know what that is? It's selfishness.


I'd actually stepped out of this thread because it was clear that you've got some issues but the above little hissy has made me jump in.

However as I can't stomach reading your vitriol any longer I think you shall be my first ever ignore list entry.
 
Atypical.

* Thread about ______________(insert passing rank, started a new style, proud birth of a child)

* Congrats posts

* Insert derogatory or opposition post___________(rank sucks, style sucks, kids suck)

* Create new thread to back-up derogatory or opposition post
 
I'm sorry, but did you completely miss last year's whole political boondoggle? With the advent of social media, it is a simple matter now for like minded individuals to get together and rail against whatever it is that they dislike. Do a google search for just about any group at all, and you'll easily find another group that hates them. Large government and large corporations have been working together to get society to think less, not more. People are not less bigoted, they are simply bigoted about different topics, and modern society encourages them to be as loud and obnoxious about it as possible.
 
I think I'd have to agree.

Inclusiveness and political correctness seemed to reach a peak in the early 1990's, and appears to me to be on the decline again, from my perspective.

I especially agree when it comes to education. Free-thinking and self-reliance are actively discouraged (not by individual teachers necessarily, but the syllubus they have to teach, and the pressure of targets they have to attain).

Though I don't want to be tarred with the tin-foil-hat-brigade brush, as I think conspiracies exist, but are more accidental than predetermined.

I'll defer to this genius' opinion:

you think the best ones are the people who have kids? Dont make me laugh. They are the population most likely to HURT kids.

Dean can ignore me, I dont care. Funny he didnt mind me - until I said I didnt like small children. and i didnt like poop and diapers and stuff. No I dont want to be around it.

Im not alone.

Did you know dr seuss didnt like children? He was actually scared of them.

Maurice Sendak wasnt that fond of them either.
 
Yes, yes I do. The best parents in the world are...

wait for it...

people who have kids!

This doesn't mean every parent is a good one, lots of crappy parents out there!
 
Sure, Because Nanny Doss, Marie Hilley, Diane Downs, Casey anthony, etc Waneta Hoyt, etc were just lovely.

There are more ppeople who supposedly love kids and yet hurt them, then there are people who dislike kids and avoid them - and hurt them.

Prove I am wrong.
 
You guys have a warped definition of jerk. according to what pasmith said to me a couple months ago, apparently if you say anything other than your baby`s cute or congrats, you are a jerk. Well guess what. That isnt the definition of a jerk. Just cause someone doesnt say what parents want to hear, that doesnt make someone a jerk.

and my thread wasnt created for my post anyway. you said non parents cant ever never understand anything. So I made a thread to refute that. Wasnt about my post at all.

then everyone made it into a call me names and put me down personally thread instead of the issue I wanted to write about. which shouldnt been about me personally, but the statement you made.
 
You are arguing against a point no one has made.
The assertion you made was the assumption that the people without children would make the best parents. I disagree with this. No one has said all parents are great. Or no parent or any other person who professes to like children has never hurt them.
No one is perfect. I think it is impossible to raise kids without hurting them in some way. A good parent does their best not to and when they do, they own up to it and make the appropriate changes.
 
I never said I wouldnt care for my loved ones. I wouldnt do it myself. Doesnt mean I wouldnt arrange good care for them. How bout you learn to read?

I bet everyone here is gonna jump right away to change their loved ones Depends if they ever lost control of their bodily functions, right? Right? Criticize me, but are YOU gonna do it?
 
who leaves their kids in cars on hot days? Who abuses and neglects kids? Who starves them, refuses vaccinations (if they are anti vax) uses faith healing on them instead of medicine, etc etc, I could go on. It certainly aint us. So yes I was responding to that statement that was made that we dont understand anything and can never understand.
 
Before my mum died recently she needed 24/7 care.Between my sister ,brother ,wife and myself we looked after her in the weeks up to her death so she could die in her own
home surrounded by her loved ones.
If you have the chance to do the same i suggest you take it for your own sake as well as
for your relative to give them some comfort and dignity at the end of their life-plenty of people don't get the opportunity.
 
Blade, I didn't intend to insult you, I just don't believe not having kids is a good indicator that you'll make a good parent, I think patience, empathy, and love are. I'm not sure you'd have the patience for it, because you have some radical biases about kids. That doesn't make you a bad person, it just makes you someone who might not have the motivation to sacrifice her own happiness for the sake of a kid 24/7. Having no tolerance to their basic functions would potentially stress you out to the max, and highly stressed parents are rarely good ones. But I freely admit I could be wrong, your entire attitude could change if it was "your child," and you could end up being a fantastically patient and nurturing mom.

And I don't care if you dislike kids. I have friends who feel the same way. I think it's amusing how much kids upset their little worlds, yet they're friends with me and I act five most of the time.
