re: #230 Obdicut

I don’t understand this at all. How have you done your duty? What duty did you perform? What did you achieve?

What duty did I perform? You mean “parenting”? Is it someone else’s job to help my children flesh out their identities?

I don’t wish to retract anything I said, given that I didn’t say a fucking word about your intentions that wasn’t complimentary. Read it again. It’s about what is going to happen, not what you intend.

Note: on a subject as delicate as this, telling me that i will shame my children is not an improvement over telling me that I intend to shame my children, especially when the source is one wholly lacking in parental experience.

I can take it. Don’t sweat it. But the semantics of ‘intend/will’ don’t work when discussing someone else’s kids, and someone else might lose their shizniggity in a similar situation - not without reason, either.
