      Please keep believing this. I have no interest in talking you out of your life choices.

      I don’t care about you. I do care about my kids. It benefits my kids for more people to think like you and give up on their lives. I hope your beliefs become widespread so my kids have life on easy mode.

          Allowing you to make your own choices is not selfish. Being excited about your bad choices, that you make without my input and that I firmly believe are silly, is not selfish.

          Being happy my kids will have an easy life is not selfish, by definition.

            Selfish:

            : concerned excessively or exclusively with oneself : seeking or concentrating on one’s own advantage, pleasure, or well-being without regard for others.

            By definition.

              My daughter is not me. Your beliefs do not affect me at all. I’m already doing great, and you and i are most assuredly not competing for anything.

                  I didn’t cost the other people anything. I’m just happy they’re independently making dumb choices they’d hate me for trying to talk them out of.

                  There’s no way to spin this so that you’re right.

                You’re still acting like a bitch. I hope you’re not like this to your neighbors because they might shoot you AND your kids if shit hits the fan (but you have nothing to worry about… Right?).

                Might be a bit contentious to say, but you’re really bad at protecting your young’s survival chances right now. Your selfishness actively endangers them even though this vector has no consequences right now. I hope you learn not to be an asshole to random people. It might impact more than just yourself. Granted I’m sure you’re only like this because you’re behind a keyboard, but if you said this to people in real life, I doubt you would have many reliable friends left.

                  I find this extremely unlikely.

                  I’m not selfish. We discussed this. You’re free to make your own choices. I’m free to enjoy that they’re bad ones.

                  Granted I’m sure you’re only like this because you’re behind a keyboard, but if you said this to people in real life,

                  I’ve told my daughters friends this too. Swing and a miss, again.

        This is honestly one of the most pathetic things I have heard in awhile. How shitty of a parent are you that you bank on this kind of stuff?

        Sucks that your kids aren’t going to be given a good head start on learning empathy.

        Just a guess, but I think your kids are going to be assholes. For their sake, I hope the apple rolls down a hill, far from the tree.

      • Your kids are going to have shitty lives if everyone around them has given up on life because the world sucks. Life on easy mode is being born rich.

          We don’t get to pick when we exist, just play the hands wre dealt. Im happy they’re born into the safest, healthiest, most prosperous time in all of human history, worldwide.
