Daft_ishHanging out with my nieces/nephews I now understand most the discipline I received as a child was most likely because I was being annoying and nothing to do with right or wrong.
originaluciferyep. the hardest part of being a parent is the patience to understand, and treat children as the underdeveloped humans they are. not everyone can do it
not everyone can do it
Also good to remember that almost nobody can do it everyday day. It’s definitely good to be consistent with one’s approach, however all parents are human and will lose patience at times.
true that... some of my darkest hours
That’s why they say ‘it takes a village to raise one child.’
Kids don’t have a brain filter. If they hear opera, they’ll sing opera. If they hear cigarette commercials, that’s what they’ll sing.
Cigarette commercials. This man is straight from the 70s.
Oh bless your heart. We had cigarette commercials into the 90s.
Talking radio? I dunno, I don’t remember them and according the the magic box in my hand legislation banning them passed in the 70s. I’m no expert.
Is that a radio jingle?
Oh sorry I was clicking through before I saw your comment, I must have clicked off the Winston one when I copied the link www.dailymotion.com/video/x7zw3ss
Apparently there’s a whole glitch in the matrix deal around this, because other people remember seeing them too (I saw a post on reddit) and I wasn’t born much before the 90s. I definitely remember Virginia slim commercials like back to back with RC cola ads during the daytime. I wonder if it was maybe from recorded vhs tapes or something because I can legit picture seeing these ads on tv in my childhood home.
I share your recollection, and I’m thinking VHS recordings may be the explanation.
It’s the only reasonable explanation I can come up with. The weird part is (it must just be tied to when I saw them?) they were decidedly in like a late 80s early 90s style. I’m mystified.
I made the original comment.
I picked ‘cigarette commercials’ because that seemed like the most obnoxious thing a kid could sing.
Wasn’t expecting to get people focused on that.
Who knew?
Apologies haha. Let’s get back to blaming the children!
Speaking as a former child myself, I can say that they are in fact terrible people with absolutely no boundaries.
Interesting
