That’s all fine and dandy until they misbehave and you can’t follow through by sending them to school on the weekend.
This is just one of the many examples of why parents today have grown so soft and refuse to give any true punishment to their children. Back in ye good old days when I was a wee lad I went to school 12 hours straight no breaks or anything and if I didn’t my dad broke a metal chair over my rear end. Then all the sudden the democrats took over and things suddenly got worse. Overall I think people should definitely toughen up and parent their kids more effectively if they want to defeat crooked B*den and make America great again.
Haha, very funny. I almost believed you were serious!
You can’t convince me this isn’t an actual tweet
Hey guys! New copypasta just dropped!!
Next you will tell us that the hill was up-school both ways.
wow, even a 4 year old knows that schools are bullshit.
Yup. Education is not their goal. It’s crime prevention.
You can get your ass beat in school the other guy gets detention. Its a prison.
Education is crime prevention. What a lot of schools are doing is teaching you how to be a good obedient slave that runs to class at the sound of a bell, never questions the teacher, & is silent and diligent in their work
You can get your ass beat in school the other guy gets detention.
The other guy goes home happy.
If you fight back, you get beaten by teachers, then your parents get called and harassed and then you are made to understand that you need to shut up and get beaten whenever someone feels like it.
They’ll regret that.
Ten years later:
“My teenager has massive trust issues and won’t believe anything I say.”
surprised Pikachu face
Sure, I fantasize about doing this sort of shit with my kid sometimes too.
But you don’t do it.
What, are you saying that gaslighting your young child to do stuff they hate is harmful?
I can’t speak for other kids, but being honest with mine seems to work pretty well. “Why do I have to put away the dishes?” “Because if you don’t, we won’t be able to wash the dirty ones and then we’ll get roaches. Do you want roaches? No. So put away the dishes.”
Yeah, that’s the tack I’m taking with mine. No sense in lying because it’s not good for your relationship, and I can’t be bothered to keep track of a bunch of lies.
its called a white lie. You tell kids them all the time
Sure… If you want to seriously undermine any trust you’ve built up with your kid when they’re older.
Tell kids the truth when they’re older, but you cant reason with a young kid about everything.
This is what the passive income 1% crowd tell the rest of us.
How to be a shitty parent 101 and Wonder why your kid completely cuts you out of there life ASAP.
Bro if it gets the kid to go to school why would they care when they grow up
Lying to coerce a child into doing something they hate could be fine. But it also could be catastrophic. The proper* parenting move is obviously to figure out why the child doesn’t like going to school, and address that.
Bro its school. They are going to hate it
I’m a new parent. When the time comes I’m going to do my best to help them figure out how to enjoy school. I’m sure you will / would too when it comes came down to it.
I guess for some people the dumber you are the more impressed you are with your own ability to fool a child. Probably because that’s the last stage of their child’s life where they can still pretend to be smarter…
I think this is another case of a joke that people have taken seriously. There’s no chance this would work in reality. It just makes for a funny hypothetical.
Idk how to tell you but there are people in here that think this is a good idea. If it is all sarcasm then thank god, but i doubt it is, since they are arguing it.
Yeah let’s start teaching them lies straight away
No Santa for your kids, I suppose
santa is haram. Only jesus is allowed.
I’m not planning to teach my kid to believe in fairy tales.
Ideally not
Not like they wouldn’t learn anyways. Learning to lie is an important part in development.
Teaching them that lying is totally cool, even about seemingly important things (to the child, anyways) will only teach them wrong lessons about lying.
Oof, this is definitely a:
Every lie incurs a debt to the truth
Sort of thing. It’s not going to be fun when your child understands that there is no school on weekends, you’ll lose a lot of trust overnight with this.
Every kid survived the Santa lie.
The difference is none of this kid’s peers will have a similar experience
Good, kids need to stop believing every bullshit they hear. Critical thinking is in short supply these days.
when your child understands that there is no school on weekends
“I did not lie to you, we just all as parents agreeded to make the same offering to our children”.
(it’s not even half lying; setting agreements as adults is what bulding a society is about)
There is always sunday school.
