Stupid People Shouldn't.....

While there is a list 19 miles long containing things stupid people should not do, we all know the infamous saying "stupid people shouldn't breed" but today I realized something else along those lines. Selfish people shouldn't breed either, and while that sounds like it would pretty self-explanatory, apparently there are people in the world that don't know that A) they are stupid, B) they are selfish or C) they just aren't fit to have children. The problem is, most of these people don't realize it until after they've already had a child and then think "oh shit, now what??" No, I'm not talking about myself here. Yes, I for years had said I never wanted children but now that I have Rylan, someone will have to kill me to get him from me!

Ok, back to the subject at hand. Stupid people shouldn't breed for obvious reasons, they're idiots that don't know their head from their ass and therefore are not sufficient parents because they are morons! Selfish people should not breed because well, they're selfish and nothing (and I mean nothing) will ever change the fact that they think they come first. Unfortunately, that isn't how the world works when you have children; hence why selfish people shouldn't have them. Now, there are those people out there that are a combination of stupid and selfish, which you would think they wouldn't have offspring but crap, they do! This whole thing stemmed from a conversation I had earlier today...which the more I thought about it, the more it pissed me off...the subject, not having the conversation. Anyway, here are some examples of selfish and stupid parents and the things I have witnessed or have heard these parents say:

1) Leaving your child in the car: STUPID! It takes a matter of minutes for a child to die in a car so running in the grocery store, post office, gas station, etc while your child is in the car is just a dumb thing to do. If you can't take 5 seconds to take your child in with you, you don't need to go! Secondly, while you're doing whatever you are doing that you couldn't bring your child with, someone can snatch your kid as fast as a fart in the wind disappears, again...STUPID idea!

2) Letting your child cry/scream because you don't want to get out of bed: SELFISH and STUPID! Let's face it, being a parent (especially a mother) is exhausting. There was a period in time where Rylan slept for 2 hours a day MAX for a month straight. I was beyond exhausted but still had to carry on my duties as a mother. Why? Because it's my job as a parent. Letting your child cry it out while sleep training is one thing, or even just letting them cry so you can walk away and gather your thoughts before you snap off the deep end....but blatently leaving your child in their crib screaming because your ass doesn't want to get out of bed yet is not only selfish but it's neglect! Also, it's stupid because children at a young age need reassurance and parents that are selfish and neglectful are just causing emotional damage to their children.

3) Begging for handouts for diapers/formula, etc. because you spent all of your money on alcohol, junk food, days at the spa, the casino....basically anything not necessary....SELFISH! If babies could take care of themselves or even go buy the things they need, believe me, I would make sure Rylan was doing it, but he can't! Babies and children are relient on others to care for them, which means being responsible and getting them diapers, clothes and food. If you can't feed your child or put clothes on them because you have no money, I REFUSE to feel bad for you when you were on facebook or wherever talking about how you spent the day at the spa the day before or you're at the bar every other night getting hammered. Get your priorities straight for christ sakes! When I worked at a casino years ago, I came across a lady bawling while sitting at a table. I asked her what was wrong, fully expecting she was upset that she lost a ton of money. While I was correct in my assumption, she added to the story by saying "I just lost all of my money and now I don't have enough to put gas in my car to get home and even if I did, I don't have money to pay the babysitter watching my 3 kids" SERIOUSLY?? Pity train has just derailed, sorry!

These are just a few examples, there are plenty more but the bottom line is, if you know someone stupid or selfish, please tell them not to breed....or just buy them a good supply of birth control and hope they take the hint! And for the love of God, if you have done one of the things mentioned above, please seek help. Your children will thank you later when they are still alive and not emotionally scarred for life. And if you know someone that neglects or abuses their child, REPORT THEM! They may get pissed at you but that child deserves SO much more!
