According to a 2022 survey by the Pew Research Center, about one in four married or cohabiting parents feel judged by people they interact with on online groups, with 7% claiming they experience this always or very often.

And the subreddit 'Insane Parents' is probably responsible for a fair share of the pie. However, once you scroll through this internet community, it becomes hard to blame them.

There's no shortage of moms posting their anti-vaxxer rants on Facebook and overprotective dads who want to forbid their kids from dating for as long as they're alive. So someone has to call them out before they convince anyone that such behavior is acceptable, right?

Parents That Make Fun Of The Hobbies Of His Kids Are Trash

Parents That Make Fun Of The Hobbies Of His Kids Are Trash

Omar_GC16 Report

A problem that 'Insane Parents' members face is that they are sometimes accused of faking their posts.

One of the most fascinating aspects of the sub is that the stories told rely on screenshots (often text messages between parent and child).

This leads to a strange dynamic where posters not only have to "prove" their experiences, but their struggles are also gamified into small, digestible pieces, the most surprising of which get upvoted.

Speaking to VICE over Reddit messages, the moderators of 'Insane Parents' said the high number of screenshots is simply a consequence of the fact that a lot of communication now takes place via text

"As such, there is more opportunity to display insane parenthood with a screenshot," they explained. "It's the easiest thing to post."

Despite a few negative messages from trolls and the occasional request to prove the screenshots weren't faked, many users think the subreddit is incredibly understanding, with most people helping to validate their feelings.

"Our sub is first and foremost a support sub," the moderators said.

They believe the community is a place where teenagers can come and "know that the abuse they've suffered is not a normal experience".

The good news is that when KidsHealth.org and TIME for Kids surveyed over 9,000 kids ages 8 to 14, 67% said they get along well, or pretty well, with their parents. And that's not all. 85% of them said they have fun with their parents, and 79% said they feel close to their parents.

Furthermore, even if children get into an argument with a parent, it's not like they immediately mess up their relationship. Most kids — more than 60% — said they usually take a little time and eventually things go back to normal. Some kids said that they make up quickly (28% of younger kids and 18% of older kids.)

It’s great if you can forgive (and be forgiven) quickly and settle things within the family and without the need to search for support on the internet.

I went to high school with a guy who was of a very similar religious denomination. He got a full free ride to MIT, and his parents forbid him from going. He followed their wishes, married quickly, and took a manual labor job. No where in the Bible or the Christian religion does it say to hold someone back from their full potential. In fact, Christianity teaches that people are given certain sorts of gifts or skills that should be used, not hidden away.

She will loathe you and, frankly, she should. Don't you dare take away a chance for her to have an education, especially with potential scholarships! She's obviously smart so let her make her lien goddamn decisions and she'll be 18, anyway. Stop forcing your religion on your kid. You've taught her what you think is the right way so let her decide what she thinks. Are you keep her in a mountain dungeon until she's too old to dance, for Christ's sake!

That if her daugther becomes educated and gets too much contact with the real world, the mother will have a hard time keeping her in that cult, as she will have a harder time convincing her that her screwed up, outdated world view is in line with how things actually is. My guess is that she is terribly afraid of loosing the ability to manipulate har daughtor and keep her under control, such that the daughtor will fulfil the needs of her mother rather than going after her own needs in life.
