Topic: CHILDREN SHOULD BE PAID TO PUT UP WITH THEIR FAMILY

Children should be paid for putting up with rheir family. For starters, they have to listen to their parents, no matter how absurd they might be. Infants should get paid more than older children because they ate a captive audience, as they don't yet have the option of leaving the room. Children have to eat things their parents cook. Eww, green things, what's that about. Children have to sit in those uncomfortable shopping carts for long periods of time while being tempted by all those yummy things they are denied. When there are multiple children in the family, they should get paid correspondingly to their cuteness. The child who gets picked on the most should be compensated for their pain and suffering. School age children should be paid for their grades and accomplishments. Children should get paid for being forced to do work around the house. If you want them to learn responsibility, that's an added fee. Having respect and manners would deserve a raise.

Wait, wait, wait - you were being sarcastic?? Because this is how a lot of kids look on the situation. The self-entitled ones who think that being treated nicely means the world revolves around them. The ones who expect to be rewarded for showing basic human decency and courtesy. The ones who don't see the need to apply themselves or work (much less work hard) unless they get something out of it. You'd be very popular among some kids who show up to the Renaissance Faire, dreamerana. And I'm not just saying that because that's what I'm dealing with on the weekends.

And I'm not just saying that because that's what I'm dealing with on the weekends. in all honesty, a lot of what you're talking about has to do with parenting or lack thereof. That's going to spark a whole new topic, though not by me. When children don't have parents who establish boundaries and teach values and respect, they go into the world thinking the rules are for everyone else, not them. If you or anyone else thought my post was absurd, that's exactly what it was meant to be. it's absurd to put a price on human interaction.
