on showing pictures of a black professor and a white serial killer Timothy McVeigh to the kids

“They’re too young to understand!”

This is the fault of their parents and any other sick fucks around them.  The sad thing is that the “nice man” would kill them in a heartbeat. 

This is about more than parenting and “sick fucks.” This is about an environment that constantly reinforces anti-blackness. Every time you turn on the news, a black person is committing a crime. Black guys are the bad guys in movies and on tv. It’s nearly impossible to find positive representation of black people in children’s books and shows unless you’re actively looking for them, which white parents obviously don’t. Our entire society has been conditioning these children to believe that black is bad and white is good. You can even see the black kid internalizing this message, in real time. Racism is an insidious disease that plagues us all.

that’s it that’s white privilege

In short there really is no hope for white people as a whole.

Did nobody else notice that there was only one black kid in the group and when asked which one was a criminal he didn’t point

Disturbing

There’s two – both Black boys. And neither point.

adults, while forcing all children above the age of 5 to sit still, be silent, and obey orders for 7-8 hours a day with minimal breaks, reducing their exposure to fresh air and sunlight to almost nothing, forcing them to alter their natural sleeping patterns to increase productivity, and repeatedly telling them their self worth depends on their being able to follow these instructions perfectly for 13 or more years: kids these days are so lazy! they never go outside! they never want to do anything! clearly it’s not because of us!

And I hate this because people are always saying that we’re able to go outside at any time! That we apparently have all the time in the world to play around!

No. The whole system is fucked up because people think that we are the problems. The we, as a generation, are lazy and careless and that it has nothing to do with the fact that

1.) From the first day of kindergarten we are taught to sit and not talk to anyone

2.) That we are only to obey an adult

3.) That we are made to wake up earlier and have to trudge through a maximum of 16 hours of constant work

4.) That we are taught that it doesn’t matter when you can’t take a fucking test

5.) That it doesn’t matter what WE WANT.

We are told from day one that every thing will get harder. Hell yeah it did. We are deprived of half the amount of anything we need and even including sunlight if you would like to say so as well.

Adults over half the time think “it’s those stupid phones”. Or that “You talk with your friends too much”. Or that “you’re just lazy.”

“We had it harder than you.”

And that’s fucked up. That single phrase, “We had it harder” is the whole reason they do it. They build our lives from ground up with discipline. With constant unnecessary obstacles.

Shitty. There’s hardly any amount of adults I can personally even claim that understand what’s going on.

And by the way to any shitty person who wants to say this doesn’t happen. If anyone who reads this is one of the people who complain about us having stupid phones.

Here’s a tip. Don’t give us any if you want to complain.

Y’know, the only reason my 4(almost 5) and 6 year old sisters don’t get out and play is that they need someone to watch them. But on a given afternoon I’m too lazy or occupied to watch them, my mom’s on the computer working, and my stepdad is either not at home or cooking dinner or pooped after a day of work. And they can’t go out on their own because idk they might get kidnapped or hurt.

Adults, haul your asses outside with your kids if you want them to be watched.

I love how he let him cry, told him, “We cry as men” and didn’t hit him with the whole, “Big boys don’t cry” mess. That was lovely. 

Phenomenal. Allowed him to emote, then worked with him to understand the what and the why.

This gave me chills; this man is a true teacher. Children are definitely intelligent enough to understand the hard truths of life if you are intelligent and patient enough to know how to teach it to them. This is such an amazing example of respect to this kid’s emotions and maturation that you don’t always see adults extending to a young person. 

Fucking finally.

@warriormale

Yes, Manliness involves showing emotions.

Emotions mean we are human.

To cry means we are human.

WarriorMale

Even warriormale agrees! This is awesome.

It’s really important to define Manliness as fight skills, a trained body and the Moral Virtues of Humility, Integrity, Selflessness, Self Control and always showing Respect.

We don’t define Manliness by not showing emotions.

This is really unhealthy and not realistic.

Men show emotions because Men are human.

We need to change this view of Manliness in the Consumer Culture, our dominant culture.

In the Martial Culture, in the fight gyms, showing emotions is common and accepted.

so im at work and bagging for this lady and her little kid and the kids askin me about what its like being a big kid and all that so he goes “do you have a girlfriend? is she pretty?” and i live in a pretty liberal area and it was pretty quiet in the store so i just calmly responded “actually i have a boyfriend, but he’s fairly pretty” and the mom just kinda pauses on her phone and looks down at her son like please dont say anything bad please dont embarrass me but he just gets so fuckin excited and is like “you can do that ???? i didnt know boys were allowed to have boyfriends!!” and hes turns to his mom and is pulling at her phone trying to get her attention and is just really excited like “mom did you know that ? can i have a boyfriend instead of a girlfriend ??” and she just started laughing and was like “if you want sure” and they took their groceries and left and im just standing there like

While sitting in his high-chair, your baby drops the spoon. You get up, pick it up from the floor, give it back to Baby – only for him to throw it away on purpose. 

If this scene sounds familiar to you, you might wonder why he does that. Is he rebellious and tries to upset you on purpose? Does he have a really silly kind of humor? No and no. In fact, your baby is busy conducting his very first scientific experiments. His brain is starting to understand two important concepts. 

The first one is called “Cause and Effect”: When i throw away the spoon, mom picks it up. When i do it again, she does it again. Oh, yay!

The second is called “Object permanence”: When i throw away the spoon, it disappears – No, it doesn’t, mom picks it up! It’s still there, even when i can’t see it!

To fully grasp these concepts, your baby needs to repeat those experiments again and again and again. That’s annoying to you – but try to smile at your little scientist! 

Kids really are born scientists. Most things that babies and toddlers do are part of how they discover how the world works.
