      1. parents almost uniformly say they get many emotional benefits from children. 2. bosses don't *necessarily* exert unreasonable control either. the issue is potential. 3. this is really not always the case at all. 4. again, this is an incredibly blinkered assertion.https://twitter.com/Hosea910/status/1338601606045192194 …

      1) Parents don’t benefit from children 2) Parents don’t necessarily exert unreasonable control 3) Children benefit strongly from parents. 4) Children exhibit strong positive loyalty to their parents. The existence of a power relationship doesn’t imply tyranny.

      You don't think "getting fed from the day they were born till they leave the house" benefits kids?

      "getting fed from the day they were born till they leave the house" is almost always conditional, and the conditions are frequently actual atrocities

      yeah; if we agree that food and shelter should be rights in a just society, providing kids with food and shelter is...not necessarily particularly virtuous.

      All of this discourse starts with the idea that babies who had no choice in being born come into this world completely destitute and this is good and just, and parents choosing to give them food and shelter into adulthood is an act of great generosity I consider this monstrous

      There's always a cold little core inside me that resists sympathy when even the nicest parents start with the bitching about how hard having kids is If you had it forced on you, I'm really really sorry But most of the time they didn't, it was 100% voluntary and chosen

      Have you ever complained about your job? The job no one forced you to accept? Empathy should be easy for people going through something as difficult as parenting.

      Jobs are something you do for money, having kids costs money It's not complaining about your job it's complaining about your hobby It's like someone training for a marathon bitching about how hard running marathons is

      Is this flippant? People tell me society depends on there being a next generation of workers to keep doing jobs when we all get old, and treating it as a hobby is a sickness Well then If it's a job you're doing for us and not a hobby you're doing for you why don't we get a vote

      It's the *sanctity* of parenthood I object to This shit about "No one gets between me and my kids, no one has the right to tell me how to be a good dad" Any life endeavor that falls into that category doesn't sound like a job to me Jobs are something you do for the customer

          73M of people's children grew up to be Trump voters. I am a very dissatisfied customer today.

          Supposedly the NSPCC was controversial when it first started because enough parents (read: abusers) were outraged that their parenting methods (read: abuse) were being questioned
