I don't have any kids because I know I'd be a shitty parent. That is the first step. Tons of people who don't want the responsibility, but they do it anyway.
This goes a lot of different ways, schools and psychologists have gotten way over involved in parenting and coddling really. When I was a kid if I fucked up I got the shit smacked out of me, these days they expect when your kid fucks up that you should hug them and tell them it's ok.
Society in general turned children into these little cult objects that should be worshipped and coddled and it's created a real problem. [Reply]
If I lived in the town, I would open a store in the mall called "Boxing Center" and let everyone who wants to fight come in and charge the other kids admission.

First time I saw a Walmart that big.
What else is there now?
I have not lived in KC since 1995
It's now a huge office complex for Cerner Corp. The mall was razed years ago. The land was originally a horse riding ranch called Benjamin Stables. Warpaint was stabled there in the 1960 snd 1970s. [Reply]
