    So what did you do?


    It takes a village to raise kids...

    In my experience these days the village is told to **** off and mind their own business. People are too afraid to try and educate kids socially for fear of every sort of accusation coming their way.

    And to be fair, it's not just the shams who are raising their kids with an oblivious ignorance.

    A while back my wife and I were in a hospital waiting room, and besides us there were 6 other couples, of which one couple had a kid which was uncontrolled and allowed roam around., throwing toys and tossing magazines.

    I scanned the room looking for which couple allowed their child to act this way.
    Of the 12 other adults sitting down not one person was speaking to another, in fact 11 of them were on mobile phones and the 12th person reading a newspaper. I said to my wife, how sad it is how people do not even communicate with their own partner let alone other people.., at which point a couple looked up from their phones. A couple of seconds later the child who was not being supervised fell of a coffee table he was climbing and started screaming and suddenly the parents put down their phone.

    I said to my wife if the parents had been watching their child it would not happened, to which the mother replied "we have our own lives too".

    Here is the kicker...The hospital waiting room we were all in waiting was in the fertility clinic, these people wanted more kids, when they could not even keep an eye on the one they had, who was in the very same room, and then made excuses for their negligence.

    Don't get me started on little brats I have seen like the one I saw kick their mother in a supermarket.

    You seem to pass off those passive aggressive comments off as "said to my wife"..

    Either say something direct or mind your own business.

    Or try whispering.

    Worked in hotels and bars years ago, nothing new here.
    I often saw parents walking in with their precious offspring and as soon as they cross the threshold of the premises the assumption was the staff became responsible for supervising their children.

    Was it a Maldron Hotel. Seems to be a feature of those establishments

    People raising children are at a serious disadvantage since the advent of smart phones. In my opinion (obviously). It simply cannot be denied that they are attention diverters. They are quite addictive, not to everyone of course but to many. The dopamine hit etc. I just got one a few months ago - it is so easy to chill and scroll instead of doing something else. I am really glad for me personally that I raised my family before smart phones. Maybe that is an admission to an addictive streak but shrugs, yes, I have an addictive streak, but I see that same addictive streak everywhere now. People constantly fumbling with phones. I purposely set aside hours during each day when I don't have a phone with me. Maybe people who have families to raise should drop their phones in a basket on the way in the door?
    Also all the tablets and phones and screens being handed to babies and toddlers - this is pervasive also from what I observe. It is so stimulating, why would it not be addictive for those children from such a young age. Enthrallment literally.
    There is no way a parent can give a child sufficient attention if they are scrolling on their phone or ever ready to snap or video the child as the child goes about their normal life. Children need you to talk with them and just be with them, to look at them, to be idle with them, to just loll about on the grass or sand or carpet or bed together doing nothing. Often. Almost all the time, in fact. That is being human.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 632 ✭✭✭Sorry about that


    Yes , there is a large percentage of this population now that are most definitely from the shallow end of the gene pool and as far as I'm concerned "it" is a fair enough description

    There's also a percentage of this population that most definitely have superiority complexes, who believe that it's acceptable to publicly (yet anonymously) dehumanise someone they feel is in some way inferior. Superiority complexes are actually just masked feelings of inferiority, but you probably know this.

    Try not to pass this on to your own kids, they won't thank you.

    How many other people's kids have you raised in your village?

    Was in a cafe in Donegal last summer and a similar crew came in with the fattest kid about 7yo I’d ever seen.

    Mother gets chips and sausages, kid gets chips and a glass of milk.

    When they were waiting the mother was feeding the kid the small patts of butter of the table, he ate four. Then proceeded to put two into his glass of milk.

    My thinking was he was goi to run a marathon or something and needed the extra energy.

    Its clearly obvious our efforts to educate people about nutrition has failed, we need to make dramatic changes urgently, our educational system should play a critical part in this

    Wife had a “client” in one day as the six month old had issues. The mother was talking about how much baba just loved skips !


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 512 ✭✭✭Mules


    Lol yup, welcome to ireland

    Where people who cannot read or write, have kids, multiple kids, named 'harmony' 'cameron' and 'harper'


    See it everyday. Work in the public sector, and feel awfully sorry for all these young women who grew up in a background where its normal to pop out 3 kids by 21 and sponge off the gubberment for your whole life.

    Ending up in a bnb because of trouble with hap, refusing to work and saying 'the gubberment are cxnts!!'

    To be fair some of them do work but when they choose to become single mothers that's about it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,111 ✭✭✭✭Potential-Monke


    I don't hide the fact that I have a strong dislike for kids, so nothing drives me more mental than uncontrolled kids anywhere. Not everyone wants to hear the 'beautiful' screams of your child (a scream is a scream, whether it's due to happiness or sadness). Not everyone wants to interact with your inquisitive kid. I have to leave some places due to it, for fear of taking a swing at the little sh!ts*. Just baffles me that some people seem to think otherwise, or that everyone must like kids.

    It's why I'm 100% behind the places that ban kids after a certain time, ie: pubs, restaurants, etc.

    *Note, I wouldn't actually hit a child. Too many people think it's wrong.

    i know single mothers that struggle to feed themselves and heat their homes, id be interested to know where this secret money is, because they really need it


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,111 ✭✭✭✭Potential-Monke


    Oh you'd have loads of money if you popped out 6 kids and didn't use the benefit for the benefit of the kids. Unless you want to legitimately discuss this, in which case you're in the wrong forum. Just go with the flow like everyone else!

    the problem is when it's overshadowed by politics, like the food pyramid being sponsored by the govt. it's still being pushed in places.
    or fat being made out to be the bad guy by the sugar cos

    a kid's diet and weight has no bearing on them being rude and unsupervised as it says in the thread title and is a separate issue
    A child could have the perfect diet, home, schooling but if the parents do not educate the kid in discipline and not show them how to act or behave properly, then said kid will be a little sh1t

    A long time ago, in a far off place ...

    I’m sure many of you have encountered little sh*ts in supermarkets.
    Little kids running about and knocking things over, being rude, walking all over their parents, you know the kind. But the worst are the biters. Yes, those little c*nts that feel it is okay to bite you whenever they feel like it.

    Okay, here’s the best part. A biter got me today when I was grocery stopping. He broke the f*cking skin, too. This was when the gears started turning, the moment I saw a tiny sprickle of blood on the little sh*t’s teeth as he was grinning at me like the little c*nt he is.

    I made my eyes get wide, and started screaming “SH*T! SH*T!.” Now, my good friend, Tom we’ll call him, was there too, and he instantly picked up on it. He started shouting “F*CK! MAYBE HE DIDN’T GET IT! F*CK!.”

    By now, the kid is scared sh*tless and starts crying, and instantly, Mizz Mom appears out of nowhere and starts getting pissy at us for yelling at her kid.
    Here’s the kicker, I look her straight in the eye and say, “Mam, get your son tested as soon as possible, he just bit me and I’m… I’m F*CKING HIV POSITIVE.”

    And now there is silence. Not a peep in the entire store. The brat knows he just f*cked up big time because his mom isn’t defending his ass. She just stares at me wide eyed. I walk away from them, buy my sh*t from the wide eyed cashier, all the while blood is dripping from my calf, making a nice little trail on the floor.

    And, just as we leave, we start to hear the mother sobbing. Sobbing like the c*nt she is.
    I have never felt any more satisfaction than the moment I heard that sob.

    We're being out bred by the commoners.

    Decent working folk breed later in life and produce less offspring.

    I would say the two are closely linked tbh...

    Fat kids are fat because their parents do not say no to them, the same type of parents are not big into supervising and correcting bad behaviour.

    Ah, ADHD isn’t anything like autism. Not that it sounds like these children have either. But autism is not a flippant diagnosis.
