It's sad when you're afraid to even post anything on the board because certain people with too much power in their hands are bullies.

Wow. Currently watching Frozen. I have so many ideas running through my head for what to do in my Frozen fanfic. Too bad I have to do math. =P

Oh, don't you just love parents who act like this?

Some angry mother on the internet wrote:I AM the enforcer in my family. I am also my child's ally when the time is right, but first off I am the MOTHER. It is from me that they learn right and wrong but it seems that media nowadays doesn't like that and prefers I raise my children to follow the trends. Nope. I will ENFORCE the rules, I will TEACH them right from wrong, and I will LIMIT them on things both good and bad. I will be the PARENT and when they are 20 I will be their friend.


So, you're telling us a few things:

  • You know right from wrong
  • You believe it is your right to impart these beliefs onto your spawn
  • You are determined to make sure your spawn behave in coordination with your beliefs
  • You are awfully defensive of your right to be the enforcer, even if it makes you a bully

Umm... look. I'd hate to break it to ya, but ya know there's nothing special about being a parent, right? Being a breeder doesn't make your ideas of the world any more correct than anyone else's.

And now, guess what. If you think like this, you're going to raise a child who grows up under your beliefs. You know what this means? They won't have the capacity to be independent in thought. They'll grow up to be yet another drone, programmed to operate by the rules of a dysfunctional society.

So, congrats. Your offspring will grow up to be just as closed-minded as you are. You should be proud.

Another parent wrote:I don't understand the need to prove a point to a child when an answer and most likely logical reasoning has been given to explain the answer. A parent's decision and rules of their own home are just that. They are the rules of the house and no, means no.

Perhaps posting her daughter's photo was a bit stretching to teach the lesson, but I agree with other opinions given below: I fail to see how this was shaming and a parents voice and answer is the final say-so. Doesn't matter how you look at it because that parent is raising/supporting that child.


Are you serious? Just wondering.

Yes, you do need to prove a point. If you have a rule with no reason to back it up, then what you have is unnecessary control. Such rules are only made to be broken. If you say no, that doesn't mean no. If you say no, that simply means you say no. What anyone says does not in any way correlate with what actually is--regardless of authority.

A parent's voice is never the final say-so. It's only a parent's voice. What kind of person must you be to think that your words are the determining factor in any circumstance? I mean... you're kidding, right?

Someone much wiser than the above two people wrote:Funny how many people are defending this woman for her "discipline." The irony of trying to keep your daughter from putting her picture on the internet... by putting it on the internet and asking for likes. Fail.


Thank you. In this case, it's obviously not about discipline or teaching a lesson or anything like that. It's about exerting control as the authoritative figure. If the mother really didn't want her child's picture on the internet, she wouldn't have put a shameful picture of her child on the internet. She was acting purely out of anger, and so many people support her just because she's the parent.

Family's playing Boggle. One of the words my dad says he found is "pita". My sister and I both laugh, thinking of Peeta Mellark. Oh, my obsessions always rule over. :P
