30 People Share "Seemingly Harmless" Things Parents Do To Their Kids That Can Actually Have Serious Consequences

My parents constantly compare me to my brothers, especially now during the pandemic, because my grades took a small(~10-15%) hit. That's fun

Talked to a kid at school who was telling me about her parents divorce(there's context, it wasn't an emotional dump on me for no reason) and about how both of them were telling her why the other was bad and how much that screwed her up.

Well, you just summed up my childhood.

Parents constantly forced me to hug people I literally didn't know as a really small kid, now I have absolutely no idea what to do when someone hugs me. Fun stuff

I wouldn't say my parents are chokingky strict, and they could certainly be much worse, but I feel this one a lot. I've been realising more and more recently how easy it is to lie to them, simp,y because I've been trained to do so out of necessity. Them punishing me for this or that has taught me how to instantly mix truth and lie to talk my way out of anything, instantly. Caging in your kids doesn't teach them to behave, it teaches them to get out.

Second year of high school. I fully agree. Somehow, over the last few decades, the school system has completely removed emphasis on general competence, and it becomes a never-ending cycle of parroting back what you are told or effectively paraphrasing a rubric. It stopped being about learning a long time ago, and I feel like if the system for grading we have now was changed, things would be a million times better. If I had to suggest something, with the risk of enchroaching on your authority as their parent, don't judge them on their grades. They very often mean little to nothing and don't represent competence in the field. Obviously, they can't completely ignore that if they want an education, but anything above critically low should not be a concern for quite a while.

50 Women Who Called Out Sexist Things That Are Still Blatantly Accepted (New Pics)

I think it's important to note that men are actually wired this way. My mom made a decent feminist out of me. Try to do half the work in the household, paternity leave for a total of 2 years (2 kids) ... I'd say I'm firmly in the feminist camp. Yet I still notice that first impressions are always base emotions such as "I'd hit that". I notice that it's just what my lizard brain tells me ... it's my conscious decision not to be a creep about it and behave normally. What I'm trying to say is that boys are not so much "taught" to be creeps, they're "not taught" how to behave properly, "not taught" that we're not cavemen anymore.
