Really have no interest in upgrading my card from what it is now just a normal skilled worker cscs card. Need to revise and piss about after work Wednesday. Work insist I do it, but really can’t be arsed . I took my passport as ID which is fine but unbeknown to me it is out of date so they refused me the test On another note I’ve got bad sciatica which is unbearable at times Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not a parents job to pander to a child's every whim. They just produce narcissistic children. Bring a child up to be independent and stable. I know it's not easy, but producing brats is not the answer. **** hell if we're generalizing the same way, then all of those parents on benefits who can't be arsed are all lefty luvvies yeah?

Seat68 Posted November 2, 2023 Share Posted November 2, 2023 I read liberal parents as a version of Will Smith and his wife, where they allow the kids to run riot and dont believe in discipline. As opposed to me being a liberal parent and buying my daughter weed. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The way society has changed in this last decade or so, it's no suprise to see more and more idiotic/narcisstict/entitled children these days. You only have to look at who they were bought up and raised by and how and it really comes as no suprise. I 'liked' your original post based on the Narcissitic element you elude to, through unfortunately having experienced and witnessed it on quite a few occasions.

chrisp65 Posted November 2, 2023 Share Posted November 2, 2023 I was a liberal parent. Cheese and wine for dinner, dinner at tea time, a wardrobe full of knitwear and corduroy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm already worried about my son being a fuss eater and he's not even old enough to know what fussy eating is Exactly that, it's the easy answer to give up and move on The thing with kids is like my lad last night ate a big bowl of chilli, next week my wife will cook the exact same thing and he won't touch it, that doesn't mean he longer likes chilli it just means on that day he's got one on him and we have to try it again the week after The only thing me and my wife disagree on is spice, she'll happily say things are too spicy for the kids whereas I'll push it a bit but like they ate a korma last week no problem 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
