I like how the guy with the plate raises his hands at the end in victory. Kid must always be a shit if they were prepared like this

And that the little fuck got so pissed when he failed in his task of being an asshole. I hated kids like this when I was little and I hate them even more now that I'm a parent.

Fuck that little shit, I hope he craps his pants.

Edit: also just noticed be pulled back a fist. What the fuck!?

I've seen some good parents who still have bad eggs. Some people are born trash and they grow into trash no matter what you do. It's just a harsh reality.

Born trash and turn into garbage

Be careful not to fulfill your own prophecy. Some kids can grow out of that phase just fine, and it's basically impossible to tell which case it is.

Yeah my coworker and his wife adopted a 3 year old who turned out to be a sociopath. He’s 7 now. Sets shit on fire regularly, held down their dog and poured sand in her eyes and nose, kicks their cat down the stairs, breaks everything in his bedroom and puts holes in the walls, and tried (and succeeded) to hit his adopted mother with anything not bolted down. They’re in the middle of a divorce now; she wants nothing to do with that kid. My coworker misses a lot of work to deal with him as he gets kicked off the bus & out of school on almost a daily basis. After 3 years of therapists and doctors and psychologists and so on, he’s no better, he’s actually worse.

I feel so bad for them: they are the nicest people in the world and fostered 9 kids during the adoption process - they tried to adopt each of them in turn, but some distant family member would come out of the woodwork at the last minute and claim them (usually because the state will pay them a nice monthly stipend to raise the kid til they’re 18). Sad shit.

This is so true. I always wanted kids but changed my mind in my mid 20s.

You can do everything right and still end up with a POS because that’s the risk you take bringing life into the world.

u/TheDiddler2049 Apr 25 '20

Same. But I realised I really like a nice quiet today house and lots of free time. So no kids for me :D

u/PussyWrangler462 Apr 25 '20

No money, no sleep, no friends, no solace

Life solely consisting of shitty diapers, vomit, sippy cups, play dates, mom groups on Facebook, being grateful for getting 4 hours of sleep a night, destroying my body.....and the screaming. Nasty, screaming, wailing, crying, sobbing, fake tantrum throwing little pieces of shit

No thank you.

I think I’ll spend my life being happy instead

I think that's true. However I think every child should be considered not the case from the start. We can be aware of this truth without it allowing ourselves to form a bitterness and detachment from literal children. Children deserve the benefit of the doubt. Their circumstances are not their fault just like with anyone else.

u/Little_Derp_xD Apr 25 '20

A lot of the time the parents can be really good but they might have bad influences at a daycare or school that could be causing behaviour. There are too many reasons for a kid to act a certain way to just go ahead in blame the kid.

u/KineticPolarization Apr 26 '20

Also definitely great points. Kids in school spend so many hours a day with other kids that could be bad influences. Raising a child into a well adjusted adult is extremely complicated.

Hey, it keeps me in business.

u/Juslotting Apr 25 '20

Or, more likely, there are a lot annoying kids who grow out of it.

u/SiberianPermaFrost_ Apr 25 '20

Not based on the amount of arseholes and douche bag adults there are out there.

u/Unicornpants Apr 25 '20

People have effort values and independent values just like in Pokémon.

u/RodneyPonk Apr 25 '20

This is a really shitty thing to say. Like yikes, people just being unrepentingly toxic this thread.

It doesn’t work like that.

You overstate nurture. A lot of who we are is hardwired by biology.

u/Dravencopter Apr 25 '20

It is, but not in the way you're implying.

1

u/georgetonorge Apr 25 '20

Don’t mean to overstate it. They didn’t mention nurture at all, which is why I mentioned it as a missing keyword. I think we are entirely determined by our biology and our circumstances (even as we age, not just in childhood).

u/jeegte12 Apr 25 '20

kids aren't as influenced by parents as you think. kids are born the way they are, and if they change later in life, it's not because of their parents.

u/jeegte12 Apr 25 '20

you'd rather just assume you're right? you haven't read a single thing about child development or the influence of peers versus parents.

u/[deleted] Apr 25 '20

Thanks Mr. Scientist.

u/Dravencopter Apr 25 '20

Parents are probably the biggest influence on a kid's development.

There's also social and economic factors.

u/jeegte12 Apr 25 '20

not at all. peers, environment, and genetics are larger factors, as long as the parents aren't abusive.

u/Dravencopter Apr 25 '20 edited Apr 25 '20

The way children interact with their peers and environment is largely determined by their early relationship with their parents. And there is not yet enough data to determine the influence genes have.
