An irreverent, inclusive, alternative parenting community
Is your sassy child out of control?
ChristWire has the answers for you about "the root causes of sass today" and how it's basically all your fault, you sucky modern parent. This is hilarious, but you might want to take some slow deep breaths while you read...
UPDATE: ...Waaait a minute....is this web site deliberately satirical? It's almost too awful to be sincere. What do you think?

OH MY GOD. You were not kidding about this being hilarious. I cannot even picture a parent making it 14 years only to run off to the bathroom to cry over a teen being bratty in front of their friends.
Thank you for this. I better go tell all my friends to stop letting their newborns boss them around.

Okay, that's got to be satire! I hope...

Please, please, please tell me this: "If she is a fully formed “fag hag,” she will abandon her straight mate at these social events and lurch for the bar, ordering up a frizzy cocktail while seeking any hint of homosexuality in the bartender’s eyes." (from "help! my daughter lives with three gay men!") has GOT to be satire, no???

Ok, satire. Sigh of relief.
Wait. The author of this stuff disputes that it's satire in the comments of that article. I'm so confused now.
As is the internets as a whole, it seems. :)

Even satire can take itself too seriously. Talk about staying in character.

Please, please let this be satire. The first of MANY things to jump out at me was " Families need to have consistently-enforced rules for children and mothers need to be twice as vigilant about sticking to them. " I agree with the consistency part, but why does the mom need to be twice as vigilant....because Dad is doing what? The rest of that was a joke, right. RIGHT?

Apparently, there is some question as to whether it is satire or not. It looks like it's supposed to be purposefully vague. Possibly to start dialogue?

That must be satire. There is another article on the same site about gay pets going to Heaven (or not). I don't think anyone actually wonders about that for real.

Oh my..... I sincerely hope it's meant to be satirical... because... ugh. At the same time, it's a prime example of how people parent in our area. Especially the stuff about urging your kids to the right "sports, dance, cheer, popular kids" type of things. The ONLY thing posted in that article that I could see myself agreeing with is positive reinforcement of good behavior.

well if one is a catholic then even straight pets won't be going to heaven. they don't have souls. (so said my CCD teacher when my cat had just died. the beginning of the end for me with regards to religion)

Yeah, I guess pets don't have souls. Neither do we as far as I'm concerned. Telling a child that their beloved pet isn't going to heaven is cruel.
