reblogging again bc if you, like me, love to send annoying bullshit to your friends i wrote down a version to copy and paste so you dont have to do what i did
“Hey [name]! You sure seem sweet. What’s a girl like you up to these days? You know, like how you doin? Hopfully your havin a great time. You know, like livin life to the fullest. Amiright?? Anyway get back at this lil guy if you feel like shooting the talky talky. Amirighr or amirigjt baby!! ?? Well totes magotes baby chilli flake. Sizzlin spitter and sputter and spicy and spatter. Anyways baby. Totes magotes messege baby chilli flake.. lates magnates .”
Saw this on facebook, I want to help spread it here too.
Omg noooo. No no no don’t do this. Seriously. The sentiment is sweet and the intention is pure and good but omg no please don’t.
I work for a large hospital system in NEPA and they’ve sent a company wide email asking employees not to play on campuses or physicians offices, and if they see anyone wandering the hospitals or parking lots aimlessly playing Pokemon Go to ask them to leave or to stay in the waiting rooms.
Believe me we already have people entering areas they shouldn’t be in in the first place and this could potentially do more harm than good.
I get it though, wanting these children to have fun while they’re there but unfortunately it won’t attract just the children.
Many hospitals are asking people not to do this so please don’t.
I just googled and pulled up the first few I seen. My hospital hasn’t issued a statement on the website or anything yet but believe me a lot of hospitals don’t want this.
As a parent, you don’t get privacy until you are on your own. My house, my rules, my money, my decision.
Don’t like it?
Too bad.
I am the parent here. I’m not your friend. I’m your father.
Literally kids are not your prisoner??? There’s a difference between being protective and being controlling.
“You don’t get privacy until you’re an adult” like what the fuck. You’re one of those piece of shit parents that thinks taking away bedroom doors and making their kids hold sandwich board signs on busy roads is appropriate punishment aren’t you? Children and teens are still fucking people and still deserve respect. If you can’t even respect your child how do you expect to teach them to respect others?
The mindset parents have of “my house my rules / I bought you that phonecomputertabletetc so I can go through it” is a huge contributer to anxiety, depression, self harm, and suicide in kids and teens and if anyone is defending, condoning, or practicing that behavior I hope to god they get their kids taken away from them. Nobody deserves to grow up under an iron fist of emotional abuse.
So my dad took away my laptop because I wouldn’t give him the password. I wasn’t even allowed to type it in, he demanded to know the password to my personal computer because he thinks I’m “ doing things I’m not supposed to do. ” My sister is not, and never has been, held to the same standard when it came to passwords on her own phone etc. But my parents always suspect me of being “up to something” and will randomly ask to use my computer/ know the password, and when I say no, they get mad at me. In the past, they have taken away my devices and looked through them, which cased me a lot of anxiety and is part of the reason I don’t like it when people use my computer or go through the camera roll on my phone. Even as I type this, I’m being asked what I’m doing. If you think parents demanding to know the passwords to their child’s personal devices is a breach of privacy please reblog
My dad threatens to take my door away from me for having it closed. I’m a seventeen year old female, and he has threatened to take away my door.
when i was a teenager, i wasn’t allowed to have a cellphone, so my father would hand me a little bag of change and force me to call home from a payphone every single time i left somewhere and again when i arrived at the next place. that means if i went to the mall, i called when i got there. then if i wanted to go across the street to the Walmart i had to call and tell him so. then i had to call again when i got to the Walmart! if i had a bunch of stuff to do, i could go through the entire bag of change in one weekend - if i could even find enough payphones to call him from. his explanation for this lunacy was that he wanted to be able to find me anytime, anywhere. he also liked to randomly show up at my job to make sure i was there, and the first time i spent the night at my best friend’s after i got a car, he drove past the house no less than eight times, and called no less than four times. one of those calls was to ask where i was because my car wasn’t visible from the road - and when i explained the turnaround i was parked in was behind the house, he told me we’d “better not go anywhere or have friends over”. like, what the hell were we going to do? have a drunken orgy while my friend’s grandma was sitting in the next room? we ended up playing chess in the front parlor all night with all the lights on and the curtains open so he could see us if he drove by.
and what, exactly, did i do to deserve this? not a fucking thing. i didn’t drink, didn’t smoke, didn’t sneak out, didn’t do drugs, didn’t skip school, nothing. in 13 years of public school, i had one detention - for being late too many times. that’s it. i never did a single thing to make him think i was untrustworthy and i got stalked for it.
when i graduated high school, my father told me if i was going to go to art college on his dime, he was going to have a say in the classes i took and what i did with my free time - he even went so far as to tell me if he ever dropped by the campus, i’d better be in my dorm doing homework or in class, and if i got a grade he didn’t like, he was going to pull me out of school, bring me home, and basically keep me a prisoner with no phone, no tv, no visits with friends until i graduated from the local community college. faced with another four years of stalking and abuse, i moved out and worked in a factory until i could be considered an independent student, then went to the art college i’d always wanted to - on my terms.
my father died last May and i hadn’t talked to him for a year, hadn’t seen him for two, and before that i hadn’t had any communication with him at all forfour.
the moral of the story for you “my house, my rules, you don’t get any rights” parents is: stop treating your children like shit or you’re going to die alone, and you’ll deserve it.
Some parents’ comments up there piss me off ^^; Holy shit.
Let me direct your attention to REALITY : Confiscating privacy is NOT a GOOD policy. It WON’T yield desired results. It WILL have serious psychological side effects. Thank you.
This is a good way to ensure your children never speak to, communicate openly with, visit with, or trust after they move out.
My parents took away our door on several occasions.
- Not taking your child’s injuries seriously when they’re younger, may make them feel like they can’t tell you anything when they’re older.
- PLEASE let your kid take personal days once in awhile once they reach highschool.
- Grades are NOT everything. You can get plenty of well paying jobs now without having to go to college.
- Really strict parenting leads to sneaky kids. Trust me.
- Let them be who they want. They can’t change who they are, whether it is sexual orientation, gender identity or anything else. They need someone to support them.
- ^ Never say “you’re too young to know”
- ¼ teenagers deal with a mental illness of some sort (in the U.S). Please make sure they’re okay.
- You can’t MAKE them chose an educational field.
- Even an A+ student who’s a star athlete can be suicidal.
- MENTAL HEALTH COMES FIRST
- Self harm is more common than you think amongst teenagers. It’s also not always cutting (or on wrists). Be aware.
- Sex ed. doesn’t teach them anything.
- Tattoos and piercing aren’t “unprofessional” anymore
- If they have depression, please DO NOT call them lazy. It’s almost the worst insult you could say.
- If their grades are dropping for no reason, ask about it. Don’t assume things.
- Most teenagers don’t have high self esteem. Don’t make it worse.
- School is much harder now than it ever has been before.
- Not everyone on the internet is a predator
- It’s normal to have internet friends now
- Take them seriously
Also
- Don’t take their phones/computers away from them, as that is severing a link to what could be the only people that understand and care about them - Don’t get mad at them for always being on their phone/computer. They have friends online and it’s absolute hell to get yelled at by parents for talking to your friends
-Don’t force them to be more outgoing, especially if they show signs of not enjoying large groups of people -Don’t say, “You don’t know who you’re talking to,” about their internet friends -Don’t yell at them ever, especially if they have a fear of loud noises -If they tell you that they’re hallucinating, don’t say, “That’s just your imagination running off with you.” -Also, don’t say that they’re making up something that is legitimately hurting them -Don’t force them to do anything that they aren’t interested in -Don’t say that you’ll get help for them without actually getting any
If your son what’s to get his toenails painted, like mommy… LET HIM.
If your daughter wants to try out for football, LET HER.
If you son wants a doll so he can play take care f the baby, like daddy’s taking care of the real baby, BUY HIM ONE!
If your daughter wants a tool set for Christmas, BUY HER ONE!
Also
Never tell your son he can’t cry because “boys don’t cry”
If your daughter does something she really loves and you don’t, never tell her it’s not “lady like”
Harming your kinds never solves things, if anything it makes them hate you, and I’m not talking only about slapping
Also, don’t assume everyone of your kids opposite gender is their boyfriend/girlfriend and make fun of them about it because they will feel insecure about when they actually find someone they like or if they aren’t straight, it might just be worse.
also don’t expect your kids to respect you if you don’t respect them
-don’t take your anger out on them
-don’t make them feel like they’re a burden on your life
-don’t blame everything on them
-if you fuck up, don't punish them for it
-remember, they can’t read your mind
- Don’t react to everything with anger, dissent is not the same as disrespect and being a parent doesn’t mean only your opinion matters
- Don’t expect them to trust you or even value your approval anymore if you refuse to trust them, trust is a two-way street
- Telling your child to be more confident or less anxious doesn’t magically make them more confident and less anxious
- There’s nothing necessarily wrong with being quiet, not everyone can be confident and loud and trying to force your children to be something they’re not doesn’t work
- Being young is not synonymous with being stupid
- OP is right, really strict parenting leads to sneaky kids or kids that won’t know how to do anything when they’re finally given independence (or both)
- Don’t expect them to willingly talk to you if you never listen to what they have to say
- On that note, if your kids aren’t talking to you or don’t want to be close, odds are there’s a reason, and instead of feeling like you’re entitled to their private thoughts and trying to force it out of them unwillingly, maybe consider trying to work out why they don’t feel comfortable enough to talk to you??
- Dissent is not the same as disrespect, if you run a home in which your kids are too afraid to disagree with you, congratulations, you’re a dictator and your kids will grow up harboring incredible amounts of resentment and anger towards you
- If you scold them for something and then realise they were actually right, don’t just ignore it or pretend it didn’t happen, act like the adult you are and acknowledge your mistake
- Stop comparing them to you as a child, yes we know you were top of your class and did amazingly well and are now a doctor, no that’s not a good reason to stress them out with sky-high expectations
- Imagine you were being treated the way you treat them, and then think about how much you would like that person being around you all the time
- Remember that they’re human and allowed to make mistakes, just like you.
Like i hope at least one set of parents reads this
me, lounging gracefully as my butler waves a large bunch of grapes at me silently, while i eat a large and elaborately decorated paper fan: Hubert i think we went wrong somewhere
I should never be allowed to write for a cartoon series, because if I did I’d include all sorts of stuff just to mess with the sort of folks who like to speculate about the backstories of children’s media.
Like:
There’d be a character with a large, conspicuous facial scar. It’s not there in childhood flashbacks, so clearly they must have suffered it at some point between then and now, but it’s just plain never addressed.
Two major supporting characters have identical designs apart from their hairstyle and clothing, and are played by the same voice actor. No situation ever arises that would require them both to be present in the same scene, so the question of whether they’re related or one character with a dual identity or what never comes up.
A couple of supporting characters have a focus episode where they go off on their own little adventure for a couple of weeks. When they return home at the end of the episode, the protagonist now has, like, a prosthetic hand or something. When they express concern, the protagonist indicates that they’ll tell them the whole story later that evening - and then the episode ends. The change to the protagonist’s character design proves to be permanent, but the audience never does find out what happened.
That’s just evil
I’m not sure which would be better; never answering those question or answering them all in the last episode but with ridiculous answers that aren’t dark or tragic.
“This scar? Oh I just caught it on a branch when fell out of a tree when I was 12. I was scrumping apples at the time. I rather like the scar. It makes me look like a pirate.”
“Huh? We both look identical!? Well scientists do say that everyone has at least one doppelganger out there.”
“Yes, I know your prosthetic hand has come in useful. However, I think it’s a bad idea to deliberately cut off the other one - like you did last time - just because you want to look more like a robot.”
Better yet, make it in a short after the series ended so people debate it’s canonicity
I am Silver Tongue, I am an artist. I have many characters and you can check out my art in the art tag. I occasionally practice witchcraft though I don't do anything too complicated. I am girl 2 and don't know what else to put here.
