Do you too hate kids? - Page 2

*Spitfire* · 10-17-2010, 06:29 PM

Depends on the kid really. I don't hate all kids. I only hate kids who are annoying and rude in movie theaters, on airplanes, or in stores. Kids will be kids I blame parents for all of that. Like when they don't stop their kid from wailing at full volume when they can't have candy or when they take them to see movies they're not old enough to see and the kid gets scared.

My favorite is when they bring babies into movies or on airplanes. Babies have sensitive ears you don't take them somewhere loud like that. Also most babies never stay quite for very long, usually only when sleeping or eating, so a movie is a horrible place for a baby. Airplanes can't be helped I guess but if I ran an airline there'd be a special section just for babies and an extra fee to make parents think twice about it.

Sometimes I get the idea that parents are so scorned that they have to put up with their kid they feel the need to "spread the joy". I find it utterly rude you'd bring a baby or small child into an environment where they will be uncontrollably disturbing the peace of everyone around them.

Kids are awesome... i dont think iv'e ever encountered a child between 4 and 10 I would say I hate... teenagers on the other hand I wish they'd stay the f*ck off of my lawn.

*BubblyShell22* · 10-19-2010, 08:55 AM

I agree with you, Spit. That makes a lot of sense.

And you would never run an airline at that rate. I understand your idea of it being annoying that babies are crying on planes and their ears are sensitive. But travel is needed. How about people moving, or people having a family reunion or get together. So the only way to do this is to drive 22 hours instead of flying 3? I understand your frustration but to say they shouldn't be on the flight is just wrong in my opinion. I understand babies crying and making noise is a bit annoying at times, but its their way of communicating and I am sure you did the same thing and pissed off people around you. Its the way of life!

*Spitfire* · 10-19-2010, 01:00 PM

Yeah I know it's one of those things I just have to tolerate. Sucks when you're on a 13 hour flight trying to sleep though. Ear plugs only do so much. I know when I was a kid I never flew on an airplane. My first plane ride wasn't till I was 4. My parents never took me to movies until I was old enough to handle it and only kids movies. I just grew up different which is why I have a hard time figuring out why people do some of these things with their kids.

*Luzmagica* · 10-19-2010, 01:34 PM

...Every human person that had born in this world first of all was a baby/kid... Can you actually hate a part of your own live/way??...Not so much...

....Kids are fine only if you keep the distances or had a good rest after the encounter...LOL!! ...

*Mr.Turtle* · 10-19-2010, 04:38 PM

I believe that the parents are responsible of most parts of their kids' disturbing behaviers. A kid will listen to whatever its Mum tells it. I know that they are being rude sometimes because their parents program them that way. But it just makes you hate the kids even more when you can't blame the prime culprit.

I understand for sure. Sometimes parents just let them whine and whine and don't do anything, but just saying sometimes you have to bring them on a plane.

That is a form of teaching bratty children to not rely on whining. Shows them that whining will not give them everything.

I love children, I am around kids 24'7. They are inventive, smart and enjoyable.

Kids are why this thread is so funny.

Yeah, kids can be funny at times and bratty at times.

And to the OP, I'm sure a lot of people hated you when you were a kid.

*Sage Ninja* · 10-21-2010, 09:54 AM

meh, I can take 'em or leave 'em. Some kids need compassion and understanding and others need to get the spanking of their life.

I think it all depends on how they are being raised, truth of the matter is that alot of people start spewing out kids before they are ready to have one so they don't know how to go about raising them. I see it all the time in my line of work. I work the toy department and I can't tell you how many times parents leaves their kids (sometimes as young 3 or 4) all alone while they go shopping, and they tear up the place. Or they are standing right there with their kid while he/she rains wanton destruction on their surroundings and don't say a thing...so maybe the kids aren't ones he need to get spanked but their loser ass parents.

*Katie* · 10-21-2010, 06:56 PM

Kids are awesome. Period.

CudleyCowlick · 10-22-2010, 01:02 AM

Most kids are tools at best, and if I could meet me about 20 years ago, I'd kick me in the teeth.

NameGoesHere1066 · 11-02-2010, 08:11 AM

I'm of the opinion that kids are only as bad as their parents allow to them to be. That is when they are little. WHen kids get older and they start becoming people and making their own choises, some people become bad people even if they where raised by the pope. I think some people forget that kids (not to be cliche)are people too, and sometimes decide to be rotten individuals despite whatever moral up bringing they recieved.

Charlotte_Sometimes · 11-04-2010, 05:38 PM

Kids are alright, and I actually do really well with kids. But I don't think I'll ever have my own. My youth is pretty important to me, and I want to stretch it as long as I can.
My friends find this ironic, as they say I'm totally the maternal type.

*BubblyShell22* · 11-08-2010, 09:42 AM

I'd like to have kids someday, but it'll depend on if we can afford them or not.

Abnormal Freak · 11-10-2010, 08:35 PM

Kids are rad. I like them far more than I do adults.

One day I'd like to have kids of my own, but that all depends on whether I get married.

*BubblyShell22* · 11-11-2010, 12:45 PM

Yeah, same here. I want to get married and have kids. It's just that these days it's harder to be able to afford raising kids. And with the economy being the way it is, it's sitll hard for us to get jobs. I'm going to do online tutoring though because it sounds like a good way to put my degree to use. I just can't put my English degree to use in the real world.

Lisardo · 01-16-2011, 01:07 AM

I'm not much of a "kid" person. I do like my bf's niece and nephew tho. But in general kids make me nervous and I dunno how to act around them. To be honest, I'm not sure I'd ever have kids. I'm more an animal lover. Maybe I'll just raise doggies and kitties instead,
