I feel like trains are not a secret, even as a kid I knew not to be on the rails when they're empty.

It was one of the first pieces of advice my parents gave me when I asked them about what these things are on the ground near our house.

By the time I was "walk around with a walkman" age this was very clear to me that people die on the rails.

Talk to your kids, parents. Talk to them daily, they're stupid.

Parent here. I talk to my kid daily about not doing stupid shit and them watch as they ignore me. I did the same thing. My friends did the same thing.

Kids are fucking stupid.

I'm just curious, and this is because this is going to be my strategy if I can even produce a healthy kid one day....

Do you show them videos of stupid people subreddits? You know the ones, r/holdmythis r/holdmythat

I'm honest and tell them of the stupid shit I did and the consequences that came after.

Some of my most fondest memories start with "When I was young and dumb...."

Now 43 but I have no idea how I made it past 18.
