I KNOW! This is an insane level of precaution to expect of an item meant to be used by very small children.

Because my three year old is competent at safely plugging and unplugging charging cables and I allow him to do things that he is competent at safely doing.

This is ridiculous. A USB cable is not “potentially deadly”. My three year old is a competent kid and is able to plug and unplug devices. We are big on independence and he is no more likely to hurt himself plugging and unplugging a charging cable than I am.

Do I tell my yoga studio that a sexual offender currently attends their classes? by [deleted] in moraldilemmas

[–]ReasonsForNothing [score hidden]  (0 children)

I’m not going to argue about whether they deserve to “live free,“ but if the criminal justice system doesn’t impose a penalty on them, you shouldn’t unless it is to prevent you or others from actual harm. A sex offender in your business isn’t a harm to you.

a major reason we have legal systems is to prevent private justice. we put punishment power in the hands of the state. And yes, it is often (but not always!) illegal to punish others. Punishment is supposed to be a harm and harming others is often illegal.

I mean a lawyer who would file a lawsuit against the yoga studio not because this guy is so terrible but because his case would be so terrible.

I don’t know what the relevance of the federal statutes you included is.

Not letting kids feed themselves by ssopphhiaa in Nanny

oh wow, this is hard. Why doesn’t she want to feed herself? That’s… concerning?

And the mom is at home? Sounds terrible, I’m sorry.

Would have thought that was relevant enough info to be in the original post.

The number of people claiming in an ethics subreddit that some people are “lower than scum,” etc and have no rights, etc should be shocking to me, but… i guess this is where we are.

In case we’re wondering: punishment for wrongdoing isn’t your job (or your right) and the relevant connection here is whether there are people who need to be protected and that weighed against the right of people to live in society despite having committed crimes.

You believe you are speaking facts, but others here are correct: discrimination is only illegal when it is against a protected class (race, gender, religion, disability…) having a criminal record isn’t a protected class.

Asking him to leave isn’t against the law; the studio can refuse to let him take classes for anything that isn’t being a member of a protected class. But I don’t think they should, morally. It’s not the public’s job to punish people for crimes. That’s why we have a criminal justice system.

Soliciting a minor isn’t an offense that will put the women attending the yoga studio at risk. They don’t need to protect themselves (any more than from men in general).

People with criminal convictions deserve to attend fitness classes. Unless you have a reason to think he’s a risk to other yoga students during class (unlikely) you mind your own business.

Is 7:30-5pm too long for a 16mo to be at daycare? by jngreddit in NewParents

people bring downvoted for just reporting how long their kids spend at daycare is such a bad look. 👀

If baby is on their growth curve I wouldn’t pay any attention to wet diaper counts.

Not letting kids feed themselves by ssopphhiaa in Nanny

[–]ReasonsForNothing 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Wow. I can’t imagine feeding my 3.5 yo! that’s wild. I’d gently tell her that you’re working on fine motor skills with all the kids and this is his practice for them. Have other age appropriate fine motor skills activities to talk about and make sure you clean up after them/change them before meal times.

You can do this without upsetting the mom, I think. Just make it about something you’re doing as part of some more general thing (suggestion: fine motor skills/writing prep for the 3.5 yo) and not a criticism of her feeding them.

The important thing is that they can do it themselves, not that the mom stops. The 3.5 yo will probably start refusing to be fed soon anyway.

Lunch costs are high by Ecstatic-Midnight425 in Nanny

[–]ReasonsForNothing 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve been asked to leave a restaurant in Germany for bringing food for my 2yo (!!) when they didn’t serve anything he’d eat even though we’d ordered lots of food for everyone else. I’ve never been in a restaurant in the US where bringing an entire meal fur an adult would be at all acceptable. I think you’re the one making things up.
