[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]She SHOULD be ashamed. She didn't have the good sense to be ashamed on her own, so her social group stepped in and did it for her. That's what living in a society does, it imparts values and rules (formal and informal) on you. When you step out of line on them, there are consequences. [/quote]

You sound like exactly the sort of punitive, self-righteous, authoritarian creep who burned witches at the stake, tortured heretics, and stones women under Sharia law. Just amazing. Re-read your post, you wacko.[/quote]

Or the kind of punitive, self-righteous, authoritarian creep who shames people for smoking around kids, punishes those who speed in a school zone, or wants laws enforced that get criminals hard sentences? Yep, I'll cop to that. Different time and situations, but whether you like it or not, what I said is true - societies set standards and use shame and punishment to enforce them. Using a kid's birthday party as a sales opportunity is a taboo in most of our social groups, and the mom is receiving the consequences of that. [/quote]

So you take satisfaction in shaming people, and you pride yourself on that. You use the excuse of social norming to justify your pleasure in shaming and punishing others.

We are very different, you and I.[/quote]
