Kids are society's problem

Did you consider consulting society first before foisting such a responsibility on us?

[TheOtherHobbes]

Society is also society's problem. Kids are just part of that.

[sgustard]

Um, the raising of children is literally the thing that allows a civilization to continue.

[lacampbell]

Um, like, so is food production and uh air.

I'm not responsible for those either, last I checked.

[nstart]

Going to be pedantic. With air, yes you are responsible. Even with food, our food habits determine the market and the market seems to treat the environment like poop to bring about all kinds of food that we want. So yes. Yes we are responsible.

[thomasfedb]

Who do you suppose is responsible for air?

[pcarolan]

Yes. Turns out kids are part of society too.

I don't see too many dads at sporting events proclaiming "that's societies boy!"

[koolba]

Sure you do, but only when it's the other team and they're losing.
