    There should be a civil service job called “mother” and women who have children and stay at home to take care of their home and children should be paid a living wage with benefits and retirement through our tax dollars. Conservatives, you say want more children to use as wage slaves and fewer abortions? Okay, prove it. Start paying women. Women have been doing unpaid labor for centuries. Give them pay and benefits and watch how many of them are willing to have kids.

    This happens, and it sucks for the parent and for the customer.

    I haven’t been to whataburger since i’ve been yelled by a parent behind the counter because their kid wouldn’t leave me the fuck alone and I had the audacity to be kind about it so obviously i’m a pedophile or something.

    This is the kind of thing I used to see under /r/upliftingnews on the other site, along with Americans failing to notice how dystopian it looks to the rest of the world.

      That might have been the main reason I left the other site. Wasn’t banned, wasn’t using apps, but one can only take so much of this being labeled r/wholesome or something before I had enough.

    This image tells you everything you need to know…

    Is that because there are words explaining the image?

    If there was a village, couldn’t someone from the village watch the kid while she worked her shift? This is showing that it takes a village, but the village is missing.

    The real outrage is that this kid is observing people eating McDonalds slop and is at risk of learning that behavior.
