Note that I’m not just talking about the shitheads who cause forest fires or water contamination, with their bullshit. I’m talking about ANY of this dumb shit.
People used to have some goddamn dignity. If you wanted to keep the sex of the baby a secret, then you’d have both pink and blue cigars ready to hand out, after the birth. If you wanted the doctor to tell you, then that’s fine. You’d be talking to your friends and you’d go “yeah, the new kid’s gonna be a girl.”
The whole concept of an extra baby shower, just to hoot and holler about that shit is FUCKING INTOLERABLE.
As far as I’m concerned, it shows that these dipshits are only interested in their offspring as accessories to their own lives. They’re after the attention they can get, off the back of their children. They’re after the lifestyle of being a parent, so they can associate with other people who define themselves based on the social and material trappings of parenting. And they’re drooling after social media likes and views.
Anyone who participates in that shit is proving that they’re not interested in being the parent of a human being. They’re just making a doll to dress up and pose for pictures, starting before the child is even out of the womb.
To reiterate the title: if it was up to me, everyone who has ever had any kind of gender-reveal nonsense for their upcoming kid should have that child seized by the state, hopefully to be raised by real people, rather than soulless degenerates.
When you get older, it gets harder and harder to find an excuse to get all your friends together, so you start making up BS reasons to do so. I don’t see any harm in it tbh and I seriously doubt that you actually believe those people are “already an unfit parent, and [their] kid should be taken from [them], at birth,” and if so, please go outside more and look at what life is like for children who are taken from their parents (parents who are presumably loving and financially sound enough to throw a party for them).
Ain’t nothing stopping you from just getting together, for some less stupid reason. Do that.
And you’re wrong. I absolutely do believe every word of what I said. Even though the foster-care system is literally a torture and assault machine, it would be better for kids to be sent through that shit than to be saddled with parents who do fucking gender-reveal ceremonies. If you do that shit, you might as well just wear a t-shirt that says “I’M NOT JUST A MORON, I’M A NARCISSISTIC, SELF-OBSESSED, SHALLOW MORON.”
If you’re in foster care, you at least learn the truth pretty quickly: your caregivers don’t love you, and you shouldn’t trust them.
But if you’re being raised by biological parents who are narcissistic morons, you might not realize that fact for your whole life. And so you’re likely to be their willing slave, plaything, soldier, etc, all the way to their dying day.
I feel the same way about people who own decorative throw pillows so I def see where you’re coming from here.
I feel the same about people who make posts like yours. Its pretty narcissistic to assume the reasons you think they do it are the only reasons.
A bit rich for the pot to be calling the kettle black. Whats more gross is you are downplaying actual abuse when you put unimportant shit like this on the same level as actual abuse.
