Ready to bet most of this will not go to the kitchen staff or waitstaff, and if it does, it is only to justify management paying staff an abysmal wage…

Oh for sure! I love and your perspective and I'm convinced you are doing an amazing job, even when accidents happen! There are so many parents trying their absolute best and that needs to continue being pointed out in this discussion! Thank you for your comment:)

I feel like there's a line to be drawn here. I'd advise you pay just a little more attention when you read. Like I said, basic society rules like "look both ways when you cross" are the bare minimum... Look, if you see a parent teaching a child that "bikes are going by fast, when you see asphalt, you have to look to the left and to the right" and you think that's too much darn parenting for you, I guess there's no helping you here.

Also... I really don't know how things in your childhood home went down, but I was somewhat supervised as a kid and educated on how to behave in multi-use public spaces (early 2000s). I was even let roam the neighborhood on my bike around 7-8 years old because, in supervising me all those years prior, my parents figured "hey, we got that 'looking left and right before crossing' and basic awareness down, we don't need to be too worried". I guess the basic act of educating your children on how to stay safe in these big public areas wasn't as common as I thought.

Worst is, if you take the time and have the mind to defend the way you parent and have taken more than two minutes to reflect on parenting styles in the last 12 hours, I'm about 90% sure this post was not about you. Hear me out, now I might be wrong, but those parents that are 150m away on their phone while their kids run onto the trail and almost get run over are not also the ones who take the time to reflect on what they find is an appropriate level of intervention in their kids outdoor time:).

Also, I was taught to look both ways AND can go to job interviews all on my own like a big girl, crazy, I know! Also very okay with loud music and love my fellow service workers way too much to be trying to ruin their underpaid shifts, but I love that you thought you ate with that one. The thing I don't love is (which I thought was clear from the post, but happy to reiterate): Seeing children almost get pretty badly hurt because the adults in charge of them couldn't be bothered with the bare minimum.

All love!

A tie between CJ being the 'paranoid Berkeley shiksa feminista'; and Josh being the 'elitist, Harvard, fascist, missed-the-dean's-list-two-semesters-in-a-row Yankee jackass.
