I'm pretty sure I read that Palestinians don't love their children. That's why they strap babies to themselves as armor.

true story time. i was in thailand with a friend and we kept commenting on how loving moronic all the locals were for driving around on rickety rear end thai motorcyles with loving babies on their laps. like, oh i accidentally bumped the curb and gelled my infant child, oops oops sahwahdee krapp, but we are young liberals and accept that other cultures do things differently and we must not judge nor import our western ideas about safety or childcare to such heathen lands as chiang mai.

then we saw a loving white man with a baby on his lap and we almost lost our minds

I seriously do not know what the gently caress instagram is. I mean I really don't. Is it like instant messenger?

Hello yes I heard there was a lovely trainwreck here and...

sounds like possibly otherwise normal social pressures are being dialed to 11 with the extra metrics and ease of editing, glad i didn't grow up with this crap

Mothers weep
Children sleep
So much violence ends in silence
It's a shame there's no one to blame for all the pain that life brings
If you will just take me it might just complete me
And together we can make a stand

My great-grandfather started Larsen Pork Products with little more than three pigs and a killing hammer. Today, I'm proud to say, we kill more pigs than pig hepatitis.

"I'll be whatever I wanna do!"
Don't kids think facebook is lame now? Because everyone and their literal grandma are on it now? Parents should go on instagram next to ruin that for them too. Also,parents should start smoking a poo poo ton of weed and get over the top drunk and take pictures and post it on facebook. So that way, if their kids ever posted pictures of them getting wasted, the parents can post "How, cute, so much like their father :)" Thus making it 'uncool'

It's over the top upworthy style clickbait but I agree with the general message.

this is a good video and theres a good book on the topic called 'alone together' which is worth reading.
