It also was routine to beat your kids and get prescribed meth to take home, and give your kids alcohol and smokes
What sort of argument is this, times change as we learn things.
Supervising your fucking seven year old near a 4 lane road isnt helicopter parenting lol
@pixxelkick You haven’t traveled much outside the United States of AmeriCar, have you? Building stroads through neighborhoods, making it unsafe for people of any age to walk to their nearest grocery store, is the problem. Almost all other high income countries have been steadily reducing their traffic fatalities for decades while the US does the opposite. Which system represents progress?
I never said stroads were good.
You understand two things can both be a problem at once right?
Stroads are indeed awful.
Letting your 7 year old go and play near one unsupervised is also very bad too
You don’t get to just go “roads bad” and this excuses the mothers negligent behavior. Both can be bad, at the same time.
@pixxelkick There was no negligent behavior. Why have we become a culture that criminalizes every aspect of motherhood (ignoring the father’s role as an equal co-parent) from having an abortion or even a miscarriage to not keeping your children on a leash for the entire 18 years they are minors (or at least 16, at which time if you can afford to buy them a car you can let them loose to kill people) and then bitches that women don’t make enough babies?
Hyperbole.
Theres, crazy as it sounds, a reasonable middle ground between:
The fact you had to reach for such insane hyperbole demonstrates how out to lunch you are. Yes, the woman was 100% legally negligent, its absolutely fucking insane to try and pretend letting a SEVEN YEAR OLD play with no adults around near a fucking busy ass four lane road. Are you genuinely insane?
God I hope you don’t have kids, lol.
@pixxelkick If children can’t walk to their neighborhood grocery store safely, that’s a societal problem, not an individual one. Instead of looking for a scapegoat to punish, fix the fucking neighborhood so it doesn’t keep happening (to adults as well as children).
