parents

The people who constantly bombard you with stupid questions such as "What time do you call this?"; "Where have you been?; "Who was there?"; "How much have you been drinking?".

They can only see a small toned-down part of your life as they proceed to stop you doing anything which gives you even the slightest pleasure.

Those who enforce "House Rules" which apply only to me as they do whatever the fuck they want.

My parents ruined my life.
When 3 am becomes late you must be a parent.

jessi slaughter parenting

when parents are couldn't care less what completely absurd things their children do, and do nothing whatsoever to protect/supervise their children.

at the beach, some little girl about 3 or 4 years old went way too deep into the water and almost drowned, no adults were around to help her, "that's some jessi slaughter parenting right there, someone's just letting their kid drown."

30 years old and still living with your parents

Either a pathetic loser or a member of the lost generation that got screwed over by Bush, the oil industry, and the banks. If it's the latter, when you graduated from college, housing prices were through the roof, health insurance costs were insane, and the average salary was pathetic... then the economy tanked. Now, you're back living in the home your parents owned when they were your age. You're sleeping in your childhood bedroom, in the bed where you used to dream about what life would be like when you grew up.

Even though you studied hard, never ran up any credit card debt, never broke the law, and generally did everything society asked you to do AND even though you work 40 hours a week at a salary position, you're 30 years old and still living with your parents. By the time the economy pulls it's self out of this slump, you'll be too old to have a family of your own, or to be seriously considered for any non-dead-end job. You're not sure where you'll live when your parents retire in a year or two and sell the house, but, as the responsible and realistic planner you are, you've already begun buying Ramen Noodles in bulk.

asian parents

Asian parents are the sole parental units and source of guidance for their children. Although often accepted and respected by their peers in the community as members of society, it is common knowledge among their children that they are actually controlling and manipulative with old fashioned ideals, ridiculously high expectations, and no care in the world for the actual dreams and desires of their progeny. Most, but luckily not all, Asian children are subject to the strict rulings constantly doled out by their parents. A traditional Asian upbringing will often include harsh rules which prevent children from ever being themselves or being with the few friends they are allowed to have, and will instead force upon them summers and free weekends anguishing over textbooks of material they are not expected to cover in years. Grades below an A are completely unacceptable and the children will be made aware of this well before they even begin school, as every exploit -from walking to talking-will be made a competition between children and the children of his parents peers. Addionally, Asian children are expected to do exceptionally in a great deal of extra-curriculars, most notably music and school clubs. Awards and honors are practically a must. Asian parents will provide eternal self-degradation due to the fact that they consistently compare their children to other equally suffering Asian children who succeeded after many miserable years of no fun and back-breaking studying. Most victims of this sort of abuse end up never feeling worthy of love or success, and never feel that they are "enough" for their parents. The method, admittedly, does work and so most Asian children do end up at some of the greatest schools. However, this is at the great cost of the children's emotional and mental stability -no doubt reflected in the incredible percentage of Asian students in depression or suicidal. Those who do make it through their higher education will be guilted by the antiquated sense of filial piety instilled within them by their parents and most likely seek a career in medicine or law as their parents wish.

Asian Parents: YOU'VE GOT NO POTENTIAL! LOOK AT THIS, A-?!?YOU'LL NEVER GET INTO HARVARD, OR PRINCETON!
Child: Well, maybe I don't want to go to Harvard! Maybe I want to go to art school!
Parents: NO MOTIVATION! YOU ARE NOTHING! No one with sense would pursue a career like art. Art will not feed your old parents when we are old and retired. Stephanie Wang has more work than you, but SHE STILL PLAYS VIOLIN ALL THE TIME, AND NOW SHE'S GOING TO YALE!
Child: Well, I'm not perfect. You caught me!
Parents: HOW DARE YOU, YOU LAZY GOOD FOR NOTHING-!

ignorant parents

Ignorant parents are people who are unaware of how their behavior affects their own children.

First, parenting is behavior that is suited to train children into capable people, discipline them so they know how to navigate society, and help them grow into successful human beings. This can be done in many ways including having a mutually respectful relationship with children, helping them cultivate common sense and critical thinking to see why common sense makes sense, and helping them build their own problem-solving skills.
Ignorant parents are not knowledgeable about how to parent ethically.
Again, there are many ways to raise children, but the best results usually come from smart parenting.
Children who receive smart parenting feel good about themselves and their families, they are confident about their own decisions and they know that their parents did their best.
Ignorant parenting can leave children in the dust of their peers and eventually, under dirt.

Being an Ignorant Parent involves:
- ignoring simple yet powerful child rearing techniques from authoritative works like the Bible, Quran, or Torah
- ignoring useful theories in child (developmental) psychology
- ignoring the history of raising children
- Being intellectually lazy when dealing with children
- Being insensitive to the general nature of children
- Being insensitive to or irresponsible for the needs of children

AT A RESTAURANT
Jacob: why is Johnny cursing out the waiter? What a dick!
Gussac: oh, that's because his dad curses out waiters whenever he doesn't get what he wants. He told Johnny that waiters are inhuman and that they should be yelled at.
Jacob: ... like father like son, I guess.
Gassac: Yes. They both are huge dicks.

ON THE PHONE WITH A FRIEND
Hepa: My mom doesn't want me to attend a free communication workshop to work on good conversation techniques. I really want to be a fluent conversationalist.
Crystal: What!? That's an important skill to have! Is she nuts?
Hepa: No... she might not realize how important it is for my future career.
Crystal: An ignorant parent?
Hepa: Not sure...

martyr parents

Parents of children with special needs (particularly Autism and Down's Syndrome) who make their child's disorder about themselves. They typically make themselves the victim and act like their lives are so much difficult than their child's because of their child's special needs. They tend to post humiliating videos and articles online of their children, particularly of them having a meltdown.

Steven and Robin are such martyr parents, they keep complaining about not being able to take their severely Autistic child to rock concerts without him having a breakdown
