Then just say that instead of “social bonus of your kids…”

God everyone on here talks like a redditor

this site exists because of r/chapotraphouse, the citations needed podcast fan sub.

the way western society is about kids is because of capitalism and christianity. if you think it’s unreasonable to not privilege children and parenthood all the time you should examine why you feel that way. Judaism might be like that but rightwing christianity definitely is and I don’t need to tell you about the hegemonic culture’s bullshit pervading everything.

I dunno maybe you just hate kids. Kids don’t belong in every space. Family trips are a space they belong. No one is privileging them right now. You were unprompted and started hating on this person asking about some good ideas to spend time with their kid. You may even be right about the kids thing in general. Doesn’t change that in this case you’re still being an ass.

Yeah that’s not the point I had the issue with bud. Seems like your focusing on this relatively uncontroversial thing to avoid the unnecessary vitriolic comments. More so it seems to be a camping trip sooo yeah not sure how well that point stands. I’m just gonna say you should examine your disdain for kids. Nothing wrong with not liking them, but they’re people too and they deserve just as much if not more accommodation as adults. Kids can’t self regulate well. That’s what kids do.

That’s it, last response. Wish you well.
