Quite the contrary...

SDAI-Tech1 — 7/22/2006 5:16:56 AM (archived)

...I find it hard to respect someone who can't take time out of the "adult world" to speak to their children.

That power-tripping thing only creates dysfunctional, repressed kids who grow up liberal and then fear or resent authority figures. (hmmm, how MANY zoners does that describe!)

Nothing is more embarassing than being in public and watching an adult lose it when dealing with a crying or hyper child. One see's real quickly why the child cries or is hyper in the first place, because they are already emotionally dysfunctional with parents who are too concerned with how they "appear" to others rather than the well being of their own children.

Family comes first.

Apparently many liberal zoners had parents that followed Cuban child-rearing practices.
