And not just children either, but also the parents who raise them.
You’re probably rolling your eyes already and thinking to yourself, “Oh, God. Who keeps letting Raz0r make threads?” but just hear me out.
In cities, parents think their children are precious and can do no wrong. This happens in small towns too but at least there you can live as far as you want from kids. What happens is that city parents think that now that they have babies/children, places should cater to their needs and fuck the rest of the people. They started bringing their kids to bars, so much so that several places had to start putting baby curfews telling parents to gtfo which of course caused parents to balk .
That’s just one instance of parent entitlement and why kids ruin everything.
Public transportation is becoming unbearable with these parents. They think they have the right to just put their strollers wherever the hell they want to and get mad if you call them out on it. Something similar happened to me today. A dad with his 5-year-old daughter and baby son walked on the train, stopped in the middle of a passage, put the brake on the stroller, and refused to move it when people had to move about the train to reach seats or doors. I looked at this guy and he just looked blankly into space to avoid all criticism. An old lady had to tell him to move the damn thing and he still didn’t do it! If you are not from New York, let me tell you: all trains are packed in the morning. All of them. When you do this inconsiderate nonsense you cannot defend yourself from the asshole label as you clearly just earned it.
There are other articles against babies in cities and their entitled parents (here and especially here ) but they fall on deaf ears. Parents refuse to ever accept their lot and would much rather everyone around them suffer through it.
I’m all for personal choice, and that’s what having a child is. But if you make that choice, you have to abide by the consequences of it. Those around you shouldn’t be inconvenienced because you had a child. So no, I will not stop swearing at the bar because this is a place for adults. No, I won’t stop pushing you aside because your massive stroller is taking up precious, limited NYC sidewalk space as you leisurely stroll on your way to your problem. No, I won’t stop giving you dirty looks when you don’t shut your crying baby up on a tight plane or any equally confined space (where you want special treatment too!) .
This may come off as a rant against children or Raz0r just being hateful again, but children really do ruin everything when you decided not to have any in your life. Sure, in the future that may change. I will adjust accordingly, too. I won’t be able to enjoy the things I used to do but I wouldn’t want to be a burden on those around me. For now, I am child-free and love it. I want to drink whiskey, party hard, use profanity, get to work quickly, and enjoy quiet on public transportation. Your child shouldn’t stop me from doing that.
While I will agree that you have a very valid point about babies in bars and you should be able to swear in front of children no matter where you or they are but the rest of your post is drivel. Watch where you put your hands because if anyone touches my stroller they are going to lose teeth, if i see someone shove someone else’s stroller they will lose teeth. You have no right to quite in public or on public transportation. If this is your view for fucks sake don’t ever have kids because you kid will end up being a social retard who will either be too shy to function or an obnoxious asshole.
Don’t most bars have an age requirement?
Wait, why are we even discussing this? Who the fuck takes their kids to bars? There are people like Raz0r there. If you’re OK with that, I hope you never have children.

You’re definitely one of the selfish assholes I see on the subway every day. Move your fucking stroller or have it moved.

These Motherfuckers don’t even understand that you have to put your stroller away on the subway. They always just whine about folding and unfolding it, ignoring that they’re taking up so much space on an already crowded train.
If you can’t follow the subway rules, get a car.
(wonders why this thread is super active today )
Yeah, there’s really no excuse for strollers being in the way if you can avoid it, and you usually can. Of course, BART is designed with open spaces to the side (for bicycles) and I vaguely know that NYC’s metro is designed differently. As such, I doubt that overrated city has the same luxury and thus can imagine the rightful annoyance and inconvenience, especially since quite a few of the worse parents just tune things out if they’re paying attention at all.
AlphaCharlie:
Yup. As well as screwing over their social growth. Because having social skills/people skills/etc, are INSANELY crucial to one’s success and enjoyment of life. What happens when the kids reach adult age and go out into the world? They won’t know how to function. It’ll be like they were raised by wolves their whole life.

The “funniest” thing about this claim is that even if you take Raz0r’s new infanticide title for the thread literally somehow that this is already happening to children anyway en masse because of how early the majority of (American) parents are getting them hooked on smart-phones and other Internet-accessing technology as forms of “baby-sitting” far worse than TV ever was. Of course, that’s an entirely different topic, so I’ll stop there.
I remember saying something about stepping on Raz0r’s new shoes and he said all he’d do is mutter insults towards me under his breath.
Now he acting like he’s gonna forcibly touch and move another person’s things on a subway.
In before Raz0r ends up upside down in a sidewalk trash can.

Both of those make one gay? Or are you just so insecure in your own masculinity you feel the need to judge how other men live?
I think it just boils down to kids raising kids now’n’days. I’m seeing WAY too many parents in their early 20’s. Like you still live at home, you don’t have a car, no significant amount of money saved. Still doing basic menial labor jobs I.E Mc Donald’s cashier, Walmart Stocker etc. And you have a kid? Or even more than one??? Shit when I was living with my dad in Atlanta and going to school I couldn’t fathom having a child to take care of. I could barely take care of myself.

In NY, new parents tend to be well off. The poor parents regularly move out because they can’t afford it. My buddy, who just has a kid, told me child care is about the same cost as his former salary, or about $60K. So he quit and became a stay at home dad. If his wife didn’t have a great job, he would’ve never been able to do that.
Somebody told me daycare is something like $900 in Houston. I was like wtf…
scoffs Babies shouldn’t be born at all.

Kids don’t cost that much. They’re expensive but not that expensive.
