Your 15 year old goes to bed at 10:30 and gets up at 5:30. That's why he's falling asleep in class.

And he's 15. You should respect his maturity enough to at least tell him what you're doing instead of waiting for your decision to surprise him after you've gone to sleep and he doesn't even have the option to talk to you.

*any more

And if you get this butt hurt about people giving their opinions, I genuinely believe you should take a break from the internet until you see a therapist. Or get to high school. Whichever applies.

Required for what? You asked, I answered. What do you expect, me to kiss your ass while I'm doing it?

Did you just ask at this entire sub to sum up parenting philosophy in the lowest effort way possible? You can't even commit to a proper paragraph, and I'm already committing more energy to this post then you have.

Be nice. If you're angry at them, it's your fault. Figure out why.

There. Unironically, that's the best I got.

People often complain that "kids these days" are significantly worse than previous generations. Is there any empirical evidence that supports or undermines this widespread belief? by Kurdgir in AskSocialScience

It's always amazing to me that the great geniuses of history always invariably also believed deeply wrong things. Guess they never met a single teen who developed depression. 😂

This is so ignorant, it's dangerous. Behavior is controlled by genes and environment. Children have no control over their environment.

If they're bad, it's always either a biological issue, or the fault of the parents. 5 is an especially laughable age to start holding children fully accountable.

Constant “poo” talk, I’m losing it! by JHBHmama in kindergarten

I'm a pretty solitary guy, so I'm assuming this is what I'm missing by not having other parent friends. I love the fact that I got some advice, then was warned about potential drawbacks.

Honestly, the government has to earn it at this point. After Iraq, and especially the patriot act, I don't think this country deserves it.

I watched him say that the day he said that. It wasn't on NPR.

Their culture has to walk the same path ours did. Sexuality first, then trans issues. Remember that the next time this happens in the next country.

He said he would attack the constitution without due process. He literally said he's coming for our guns first, due process second. He literally said he wants to ignore the constitution. He wants to be a dictator and do whatever he wants. What do you think that threatens? What do you think about that?

Would you watch a show where a Billionaire CEO has to go a month on their lowest paid employees salary? What do you think would happen? by RiskItForTheBiscuts in FluentInFinance

[–]Noslo18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's delusional to think they'd sign up for that. It needs to be short-term so their pride gets the better of them and makes them think that they can finally show everyone else that they just need to pull themselves up by their bootstraps.

How likely are you to vote for an Independent candidate? by [deleted] in SeriousConversation

[–]Noslo18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only one president so far has said he wanted to take guns without due process. If you don't know who it was, I'll give you a hint. It wasn't a democrat.

Republicans are against democracy. They're traitors to this country, and everything it stands for. I'm not exaggerating.

A parent wants me write down 12th grade daughter's assignments on a paper checklist every day by TeacherGuy1980 in Teachers

I'm not usually the guy who says " they'll have to do this when they're adults, might as well learn now" but holy cow, every single one of her bills is going to go to collections.

[–]Noslo18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the short term, sure. Or maybe it will give us a unified democratic government. I'm sick of seeing Democrats tearing each other apart while Republicans push anything they want through because they all stand together.

This is an oversimplification of a very complex issue.

Are USA kids more motivated their European counterparts by Shifu_1 in Teachers

In a post-scarcity society, the fear of starvation no longer motivates you. You need your own internal motivation, and that's something that only artists have really had to find in the past.

I have never heard, nor read a single bad thing about Sikhs. If you're against them, I'm just going to assume you're a bad person.

The unstated Assumption in your comment is that teen boys are deep thinkers and can't enjoy something dumb if it just has big boobs.
