Talk about whatever, respecting the rules established by Lemmygrad. Failing to comply with the rules will grant you a few warnings, insisting on breaking them will grant you a beautiful shiny banwall.

A community for comrades to chat and talk about whatever doesn't fit other communities

I am planning on having children in the next 10 years (not that I care about the financial burden). When I thought about this I decided to make up some advice:

"Spare the rod literally but not metaphorically."

Basically yes, corporal punishment is too cruel, you still need to discipline the child in other ways. How can this be executed? Life lessons are my pitch.

Speaking of "why spend time irl" my reasoning would be "Because one day, you will have to focus on the real world and you will have less time on the iPad so it's better to prepare for thst day while you're still little."

“You’ll have to be a miserable people one day so don’t get used to freedom.” That’s exactly why I don’t want to be on my phone.

What I mean is “reading and drawing and exploring outside and playing games are much more fun than whatever fake stimulation you get from a screen.”
