    What right do you like to imagine you have over another human being? Choosing to believe you own a person just because you spit them out is some pretty dark shit.

    If your kid doesn’t want to talk to you about their friends, their identity, or their inner life, that’s really on you. You have no right to force them, and if you feel you have to, that just means you’re a shitty person and a bad parent.

      Better than the government owning them and keeping secrets from the parents. If one parent is bad, thats one family thats fucked. If the goverenment goes bad, say teaches that clubbing seals is okay, then all the kids are in a bad spot.

        Thank you for being so transparent about the fact that your position rests on children being property that are inevitably owned.

        Anyone reading this thread can see which side of this issue is the one that cares about fundamental human rights.
