> Logically, yes, but the parent comment is saying that you have to contend with Mrs. Busy Body who won't be happy seeing your children in the "unsafe" lakes and rivers. You're considered an "asshole" if your kids are anything more than porcelain dolls to show off to guests. Letting kids be kids is unthinkable in this day of age.

whoever thinks this is true is either in a thought bubble or have surrounded themselves with shitty people.

none of this is anywhere near true for me, but I live in flyover country. Who knows, perhaps we're lucky that the dicks fly over rather than land and stay.

Not true, or you personally just don't care enough to think about it? Let's say someone literally approached you and your kids in the river and called you an asshole for subjecting your kids to that "unsafe" environment – would you be offended and scurry back home as quickly as possible or would you laugh at them and get back to the water?

Let me get this straight, your supposition here is that I'm at the river with my kids and someone else, who is also at the river, gets offended about being at the river with kids and comes and calls me an asshole.

Let me draw a far more likely scenario, so likely I've actually seen it.

You're at the river with lots of people with kids and teenagers of various ages. One kid disappears under the water. Every adult and teenager goes diving into the water, as in full on sprint from the bank into the water. Kid gets pulled out of the water and everyone is concerned regardless of whose kid it is.

maybe you just live around assholes.

Given the complete lack of situational awareness presented here, I guess we will have to assume someone could straight up call you an asshole to your face and you wouldn't even notice. Not a bad way to live life, to be fair.

[PH95VuimJjqBqy]

you seem to think it's normal for people to walk up to you and call you an asshole.

Maybe you're just an asshole?
