The way we treat kids is fucked up

I've had some amazing conversations with a mates kids that have been cut short,because "kids should be seen and not heard". No,I actually want to hear more about how we should make a device that lets humans mind meld with the dog. I agree with you and it also teaches kids they have no voice,aren't taken seriously etc. Why would they become any more than a drone if no one actively takes an interest,even if it is nonsense.

Seems like these days, the message is everything boy is bad and everything girl is good. Even if they do or say the same thing, it's good when it's a girl but not when it's a boy.

Totally messed up these days.

Hey man, I think setting up self-fulfilling prophecies like "Majority of little girls are going to be sluts, who divorce rape and AWALT. Majority of guys are going to be simps, losers and braindead work factories." is not the right way to look at the future of humanity.

MGTOW is about individuality, and if we do believe in the power of one, we can believe they have the power to change the norm.

I think what you meant is that the majority of people are mediocre and by definition its true. However, we can work to change the bottom line. Use logos and ethos together. Kids are not stupid like you said. We can change the norm.

Worth a mention here to a mechanic I've seen with my own mother, and I attribute to girls playing with dolls.

You see a doll isn't merely a toy, it's an emulation of a baby, however, it's also a possession.

Ever notice how plenty of women tend to put their emphasis on the baby phase? This explains it. Having children because you want a baby and what follows is an afterthought, is far too common.

At least that's how I perceived my own mother's intentions. She considered us more like her possessions rather than try and encourage our individualism.

Goes without saying that when these "kids" leave home 2 things can happen. The parent takes a considerable amount of time to actually acknowledge the child's adulthood and then what I call "baby addiction" can follow, where the mother wants that experience again. So she has even more kids, and finances or plan hardly factor in.

I hate kids. I avoid them. However your point is interesting. I also see a lot of people trying to relive their dreams through their children. Ie: forcing them to play sports or whatever. That is also screwed up.

No, you’re on the right track. It all starts at home with proper raising, which includes learning skills, lessons, values, etc. Essentially the family unit is being destroyed intentionally. It has been for the past 50+ years and it’s working. I honestly do believe many of the negative things today could have been prevented if people were a little open minded and looked at both viewpoints logically before coming to a conclusion/action.

I'm child-free and anti natalist so you can take what I say with a grain of salt. However I think most people have children for essentially narcissistic reasons. Therefore they're only interested in what the kid can do for them not what the kid has to say about themself.

Kids are the real victim in our society. Innocent and defenseless. People vote to enslave our future generation so that they can enjoy government handouts. Then they indoctrinated the kids to hate themselves. They saddle them with college debt and a useless degree, then tell them to work the rest of their lives to pay taxes for the benefit of their elders. Then when all hope looks lost, the government turns to them with a devil's promise. Ask them if they are willing to sell the souls of the unborn for a few shekels. The cycle continues.

Mgtow is the solution. We depend on ourselves and not on the government. We're breaking the cycle.

The film Captain fantastic is a brilliant critic of modern children raising.. Highly recommend for those interested in the subject

Indeed...kids are dismissed as though what they say doesnt matter, and then people spend half their lives gossiping about shit that also doesnt matter. If you actually treat a kid with disciplined respect they will notice that you are.

Bad parenting is real and happens everyday. Not much more to add to the topic.

Guilty as charged here. Defining me as a peaceful misanthrope wouldn't be far fetched, and it is greatly enhanced with younger people. Yep. I'm the kind that wave my cane while complaining about younger generations.

There are exceptions. Kids that grew on poor environments or having some contact with the natural world. I don't know if there is a label for that, but it is very obvious to me how people that grew having frequent contact with nature (farm, woods, beaches) or sharing the floor to sleep with few other siblings seems to be much more down to earth. Maybe it is a self-explanatory closer contact with reality, or it is just easier for me to connect because I grew on similar environments.

I was a middle school teacher. Kids loved me for one simple retarded reason: I listened to them, made sure if any hadn’t problems before class started to let me know so I can teach the way I like, etc.

Yea, they were silly, but they were kids. They are looking at the adults for guidance and clues about life. I’ve even had kids tell me they wish I was their dad .

The real crime is we as a society don’t force the TWO PEOPLE involved to raise the child and provide mandatory parenting classes. Don’t want that responsibility? Be careful who you lay with.

There is a child with specific DNA, that responsibility should be as serious as someone getting a cell phone bill.

But yea, quit that job after six years. Couldn’t bother to see the shit show go on any longer

I remember when I first hit puberty my mom starting saying shit like “oh wow it’s starting... it’s starting” when I would show the slightest hint of defiance... omg his would piss me off so much.

Kids get treated like shit because they are a large burden that tire their parents out, enough said.
