[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree 100%. But of course you’ve offended the hoards of parents that are too lazy to parent their kids. Teachers see it too. I mentioned to my kids seconds grade teacher during the course of the parent teacher conference in the fall that my kid doesn’t have a tablet and isn’t allowed video games and the teacher said “well there you go, that’s why he’s so well behaved and doing so well.” [/quote]

Hahaha... that's not why "he's behaved and doing so well".

My kids have screens and I get the same comments.  I attribute it to responsive parenting and my kids' nature.  Perhaps you are a terrible parent and it's all about screens for you.[/quote]

Wait, what you got from that is that I'm an awful parent, but since I don't do screens my kid is somehow great? Please work on your critical thinking skills

No, I will be more direct and use small words for you.

I am illustrating you draw the wrong conclusions from the teacher's comments. Perhaps YOU are the one that lacks reasoning skills.  Did you get that?  Apologies, my vocabulary of short words is limited unless I use longer sentence structures, which will confuse you.[/quote]

DP.  This site used to be intelligent and the snark was well done.  Now posters are just mean.  For meanness' sake.

Do better.  Be better.[/quote]

What's happening is that when people post mean things, some of us push back.

PSA - if you post here that parents are "rotting their kids' brains" someone is going to say something mean to you. You can stand by your dumb, self-serving generalization, or you can apologize for being a dumbass.[/quote]
