Hey, politics can be riveting...getting the blood pumping, passions flaring..
Yeah, I have a thing about the crazy 'worship the children' culture we've got going on. That, and pregnancy freaks me out. If you really think about it- it's kind of creepy (and have you SEEN those 3D ultrasounds? They are rather disturbing..). lol
But, really, a lot of it comes from the fact that I refuse to be a pushover helicopter parent. IF I do end up having kids, I'm NOT going to be a single mom, so the man has to be all in...that kid isn't seeing a smart phone until they have a job...mouthing off is not going to be tolerated like it is by a lot of parents today....I'd be their parent- not their best friend- that's not my job...keeping their behinds off the pole and out of rehab IS...etc. etc. After teaching, I have a whole list. lol BUT, so many people I say this to think I'm just planning to be one wenchy dictator.
Ah well, maybe I am. Who knows? lol I just know what I went through as a teacher, and that a lot of parents aren't interested in actually parenting... so, I'd do my damnest to make sure that didn't happen.
