Well done on instilling in your son the deep-seated lesson that you are not trustworthy.
- Thiez 2y agoMost child abuse is committed by family and friends. Perhaps a little skepticism is healthy, rather than teaching them to have unwavering trust in authority figures. Besides, you're bound to screw up a few times anyway (e.g. walking into them when they're suddenly standing where you don't expect, bumping a head when picking them up, …). Kids are fairly forgiving.
- giantg2 2y ago"rather than teaching them to have unwavering trust in authority figures." The system would like to have a word with you.
- framapotari 2y ago> Most child abuse is committed by family and friends Yes, a father in this case.
- twixfel 2y agoRather than being a father who is not abusing his child, better to abuse the child to teach a valuable lesson that family cannot be trusted? Great lesson. How about being a father who can be trusted?
- mycologos 2y agoThe instinct to shame people into being nicer to kids is in a way noble, but the confidence and vehemence of this comment is misplaced.
- twixfel 2y agoIt’s not misplaced. Putting your kid in danger without their consent just to “see what it looks like” is completely insane and a huge betrayal.
