4. They shift the regret so easily.


5. Give them the talk if you don’t want to see them turn into desperate souls.

7. I don’t understand what joy do parents find in shattering their kids’ hearts that badly.

12. Treat them as parents so they know how to make the best of friends.

Parenting traditions vary from family to family. I have some extended family members who decide what career path their child will pursue just 2 minutes after the doctor says, “Congratulations! It’s a boy/girl.”. I think the generation that is about to get married and have kids in a couple of years or has just had kids is the one that can save us from this disaster. They can be a change and not carry forward any of these parenting traditions. So bad!
Let’s see some more parenting traditions that the internet openly argues against.
16. Bury their talent and watch them go down with it.

17. Just another way of making the poor friends in the circle feel poorer.

18. They have no idea how dangerously the situation could take a turn.

19. Denial is the biggest hurdle between you and your success. It seems like these parents want to induce failure in their children through their own denials.


20. Boundaries, and very clear ones, need to set up early on.

21. The worst thing is – they believe it works.

22. Such parents are thrown into old homes by the very kids.

23. Learn to say no and teach them to accept no.

24. Traumatic! That’s what that statement is.


Via Dixie_Maculant, Image
25. Those who put in full effort to make kids feel stupid about something they obviously don’t know are the worst.

26. That fear makes them fail.


Via S**tStuckInYourTeeth, Image
27. It is all a fading memory now.


28. Favoritism should have capital punishment.


29. What happened to the whole “follow your passion” we once gave birth to ourselves?

30. If they don’t want to sit with everyone, don’t force them.


Via Caligirl0310, Image
31. Letting your emotions out is so important for health and happiness.


32. I never ended up liking any of those meals. Still loath them but I would eat them for a prize.



Via LoganCifer, Image
33. I am not against this violation, to be honest.


Via Cat_Astrophe_X, Image
34. I will tell my kid this and will proceed to say this is a lie I was told when I was your age.


Via grimreaper_245, Image
35. Let them breathe, please. There’s a lot of age left to space everything out evenly. You don’t need to make your kids do everything all at once.
