fun fact if you refer to children as “things” and use “it” when referring to children and are happy to see children cry and get hurt im stealing something from your house

“what did he think was going to happen” i dont know considering the fact that this four year old boy literally cannot properly comprehend consequence

“and NOW she’s acting like a victim *laughing emoji*” this six year old girl doesn’t know anything about the world let alone how to process her emotions

like these are literal CHILDREN. they don’t know shit about anything. hop off this cruel and edgy “i hate kids” train and go see a shrink asshole.

Oh my fucking god, this. So much this.

I’ve had to fucking explain this to parents. Why can’t the baby stop crying? Because that’s the only way the baby knows how to communicate – they’re trying to tell you something. Why is this child acting like the world is ending because they lost their favorite toy? Because they’ve never experienced loss before – this is the worst thing that’s ever happened to them in their lives

Children have all the emotional capacity of adults and none of the experience in learning how to cope with it. A knee scraped for the first time is the worst pain a child has ever felt. Not getting to go to the park is the greatest injustice ever.

They’re responding proportionally to the event from their life perspective. Children actually don’t over react, like ever. They just feel everything so much and have so little reference to weigh it against.

This reminds me of when I was working in childcare. Kids who were extremely “well-behaved”? The ones who never cried and never got upset and generally never needed anything from any of the adults? Those were the ones who came from BAD abusive households.

Like yes. When a 5 year old scrapes their knee open and wails like they’re dying it’s a lot to deal with but it’s reasonable. When a 5 year old skins their knee open and just gets real quiet and doesn’t want you to treat it because it’s not that bad and they don’t want to be a bother? That’s when the warning lights go off.

Trust me. You WANT your kids to be loud and obnoxious.
