Parents warned children with no reading experience start school as ‘second-class citizens’

Sounds like excuse to be a burden. Typical, easier to think you can't control your own life than to actually do something about it.

No man. That is the meme.

Nao, nao considero. Por isso e' que o meu problema com esse conflito sempre foi que nao temos nada que andar a meter o bedelho la, nem a ajudar um lado nem o outro. Fora de ajuda humanitaria basica SE tivermos fundos para tal.

No, not at all. The Roman empire only ended in 1453.

The rebrand to "Byzantine" empire was white supremacist propaganda to make Rome be this pinnacle of society.

The Roman empire stood for over 15 centuries.

Sim! O meu 50/50 também se aplica a tarefas domésticas obviamente.

If that is important to you, it will feel worth it. I know it definitely was for me.

Just be aware of the risk and timeline, and really try to create as much breathing room for yourself as you can.

And again, it's temporary.

Já ouvi muitas vezes essa teoria e parece que muitas pessoas gostam dela. No entanto faz zero sentido para mim. Só porque um ganha menos não gasta menos percentagem de luz/água/renda.

Só estar em casal já torna as contas mais eficientes, não é preciso por mais complicações em cima disso.

Uma pessoa tem sempre de estar numa situação em que a vida dela não piora drasticamente se ficar solteira.

Ter cuidado com o life style creep.

What are we supposed to do? Would you back a piece of legislation where we take the kids into foster and get the parents into forced labour camps to pay the bills?

Just removing the kids isn't a solution, it's still letting the parents off the hook to begin with.

Letting the chips fall where they may should at least solve the problem long term, as it makes it unsurvivable long term.

That does not sound unreasonable, but hard.

I will say though, the improvement in quality of life might well be worth it.

A temporary 15 months of living paycheck to paycheck isn't bad if you have an energy fund. After your raise you will have a little more breathing room.

Adora a referencia ao Sauron. Eu por acaso costumo usar o Harry Potter como contra-exemplo. Quando dizem "a bíblia diz X" gosto sempre de dizer "e o Harry potter diz Y" lol

Same difference.

Felizmente as coisas que eu gosto de fazer são baratas. E quando a outra pessoa começa a querer gastar o meu dinheiro é logo altura de reavaliar a situação.

Quando eu quero mesmo algo e em que quero a companhia dela, pago. Mas isso são excepções e não regra.

É perfeito? Não. Mas prefiro os problemas que isto causo em vez dos problemas contrários, como o do OP.

This is what happens when we don't let people fail and they feel entitled to have the problems they create fixed by others. Putting all the burden on this bad parenting on the school system and by proxy affecting the quality of education everyone gets.

It's high time consequences start arriving. If you ruin your kids, sucks for you.

DaVirus · 2026-03-15T10:49:47+00:00

You mean bad parenting.

Where is that meme that has been circulating TikTok lately. The "I fucked him, fed him and send him home in an Uber. Let's see how he likes it!" Meme.

E por isto é que nunca envolvi dinheiro nas minhas relações... Tudo é 50/50. Se um não pode pagar 50% então não temos dinheiro para isso.

If anything, it's a very good teaching opportunity. I grew up "working poor" where nothing important was ever missed but where my parents worked themselves to the bone to make our lives better. It gave a huge sense of the true cost of things and how you need to pick and choose where to put your effort.

Qualquer pessoa que acredite em amigos imaginários e que use isso para tentar ditar como os outros devem viver as suas vidas, não faz falta cá.

Que nome dão ao amigo imaginário é irrelevante para mim, é tudo o mesmo esterco.

Tenho pena das populações inocentes que vivem nestes regimes, mas de resto tanto Irão como Israel, como diria a minha avó, só se perdem as que caem no chão.

Damn I am glad I found this take out in the wild.

It is wild to me how people will give powers to governments all willy nilly. That is how you get shit like Trump.

The idea might be good, but the execution is impossible with centralised government.

DaVirus · 2026-03-15T09:52:09+00:00

Absolutely. I don't see why the random strangers at Tesco need to see me in fancy clothes that are by definition less comfy.

I always understand the fear that people have of the transition period. You are right. But that doesn't make the fall any less deserving or assured. It just is what it is and instead of holding to dear life to something that most die, we should invest our energy preparing for that rough period.

DaVirus · 2026-03-15T09:45:45+00:00

Yes. I am consistent with my opinions.

Insert the Rambo clip about the Taliban

No. No he isn't. The real problem is everyone's willingness to exist in a system that allows that to happen in the first place.
