What do you the most judgemental about?

[Anonymous]

i judge moms who don't do their share in a family -- like the ones who don't work but also don't take primary responsibility for their kids, or who seem to be pawning their kids off on daycare, nannies, babysitters, and friends whenever possible. i also judge parents who treat their kids like accessories and don't make informed, deliberate decisions about important issues like how much and when they should eat and sleep. when you become a parent you took on an obligation to putting your child first. so putting your infant to bed at 10 pm so YOU can sleep through the night and not making sure the child gets something close to the recommended amount of sleep daily is, in my view, bad parenting.

oh yeah, and parents who don't want ANY advice from anyone but would rather struggle and complain about how hard their kid is without trying anything new or different.

Yah, that and the fact that, to me, that foamy-like material is just what bacteria and mold want, and humidity, that come from sweaty feet. They are gross.




PP who first made acomment about crocs

I did not know this. I assumed they were the consistency of jelly shoes.

me, too! And now that I have a teen, I judge parents who want to be "cool" or friends with their kid instead of parenting them.

What about the dads who don't do their share?

As one of these women, please keep in mind that maybe the women don't want to LOOK like a frump, they just got a shitty

- people who use improper grammar
- people who always misspell words like their and there
- people who misuse apostrophes
I judge all of the above especially when people do this on their Facebook status update. Check your spelling before showing all 600 of your friends your poor writing skills.

- teachers who do not have enough background knowledge to answer students' questions about, for example, social studies lessons
- financially secure adult women who have an unwanted pregnany as a result of consensual sex and decide to abort
- women who wear clothes that are too tight and have VPL/visible thong, or women who think that a thong is an acceptable alternative to a slip when wearing a sheer skirt
- parents who still go out and get drunk with their friends
- parents who bring their children to parties where there is lots of drinking and keep them there too late

I judge moms who are sanctimonious
I judge moms who give soda to kids regularly
I judge moms who freak out about their kids diets--moderation anyone?
I judge moms who aren't friendly

You have no idea, you spoiled do-nothing/expect everything. Does their reminding you make you feel like you should actually WORK for what you have? What a concept!

I know people in this area who could have never paid rent without their parents. And they were NOT saving the world in the meantime. Useless, indeed!

I'm not the initial poster, but I see her point. It is admirable when someone has made a success of herself from a modest - or less than modest - background. And it's fine to be proud of it. What gets annoying, however, is when she mentions it ALL THE TIME. We know you grew up poor in a small town in the midwest, born to parents that didn't value education, and you worked hard, went to school, got a graduate degree, and now have a big house and are successful in your chosen profession. EVERYONE knows. Stop telling us - do you think we forgot?

I am a former poor person. Grew up on welfare in a house without central heating, left home as a teenager, put myself through college, now have a successful career and live in a beautiful house, yadda, yadda, yadda. The reason we bring it up is not to secure that you don't forget... it is because we CAN'T forget. There is no amount of adult achievement that can wipe away the depredation we felt as children during our "formative" years. If you were truly my friend, you would recognize that.

I like you! 8) Sorry for your bad haircut. I hope it doesn't look like Kate Gosslin.

Interesting judgment, here. Do you judge the dads also?
The decision is rarely made in a vaccum and there are often many considerations other than finanich security.
But, of course, it is much easier to see everything in black and white terms.

Way beyond this stuff. I have teens and judge parents based on:
1. providing alcohol - that plus what kids get on their own results in greater amounts available to drink
2. traipsing around parties in their home or friends homes where kids are drinking and possibly getting high
3. acting like because their kid goes to a private school or a well-off area public that they can permit anything
4. neglecting their kids and their friends behavior - if popular it's ok.
5. part of the above - wanting to be a friend not a parent
6. participating in games like beer pong complete with photos on facebook

Need any more?

I am judgmental of moms who complain and complain and complain about their rotten kids and do not do SHIT to help themselves.

I judge moms who seem to have no idea what their kids are doing b/c they either work 100 hours a week (hello, get a dog) or they are really checked out at home, busying themselves with the mundane.

I judge moms who say, "oh forgive my house, it is a mess" and then you go and it is PERFECT. Please, they know it, you know it. It is so annoying. You wanna see a messy shithole, come to my house.

I judge moms (unfairly, I think) when they look like total crap all the time and then wonder why they never have sex. Come one girl, get your game on.

I judge moms who don't leave the gym. Even when their kid is obviously ill. Even when the kids is screaming and it is pouring and everyone should have stayed home, but there she is, 50 minutes on the elliptical.

I judge moms who are on every PTA, mom's group, blah blah. Get a life outside of your family.

I judge myself for being insecure enough to judge everyone else, b/c at the end of day, everyone is trying the best they can, they best way they know how, even if it is fair to middlin'. And if I weren't so fucking judgmental, I could give more people a chance.

What is wrong with going out with friend and drinking? I mean, getting pass-out drunk to the point of not being functional the next day is one thing, but what's wrong with getting a sitter one night and going out for dinner and drinks with friends? You've never had a plentiful amount of great wine at a dinner party?

If you're going to alienate people based on this, I don't know how many people would be left. I'm hoping your issue is just with getting rip-roaring frat party drunk and not being able to take care of your kids the next day.

I look like crap a lot of the time because I work at home and don't often have a reason to get dolled up. Still get a ton of sex. Bottom line about men-- they like sex. And they don't notice toenail polish or makeup. They do notice you standing there in a black bra and an expectant look on your face.
