182. So that means he locks them in the basement or attic?
Speaking of faulty argumentation....

In the rest of the paragraph he mentions that he rarely takes them to restaurants but when he DOES (Did you catch that? He actually lets them out of the dungeon sometimes!) and they act up he takes them out so they don't ruin everyone else's experience. What an ASSHOLE! :rofl:

So, what do you do, impeachdubya? Let your kid(s) raise a holy stink any- and everywhere they are? Does everyone just have to take it because, oh well, kids are just kids? They can't help it and parents shouldn't be expected to be responsible for them because it's so hard!

As I pointed out in a comment I made upthread, American parents readily agree with Hillary Clinton's "It takes a village" concept when it comes to social services, schools, accomodations, safety measures, etc. Y'all want the village, and the village's money, involved to get all that stuff. But when your kids start misbehaving, all of a sudden the village needs to just shut up and mind it's own business, doesn't it? Well sorry, this villager isn't playing along.

And don't bother with the "my kid will take care of you when you're old, pay your Social Security blah blah..." I'm supporting people's Social Security right now, in addition to paying a much higher tax rate so that you can get your parental tax credit, and will most likely continue to do so for several decades. By the time the kids of today paying my checks, I will damn well have earned them.
