10 Jan 2005 Child Free

I know I just linked to Eric Berlin yesterday, so I probably should not do it again so soon, but he has an eye-popping post up about people who seemingly hate children.

He’s not kidding, either. I visited the website he mentioned and the very first post I saw urged donations to charities aiding animals hurt by the tsunami: “…if you’re tired of the hoopla about the children you can send something to help the nonhuman victims.”

Or this post, the point of which seems to be that adults should be rude to well-behaved children on commercial airlines.

A repeated theme seems to be frustration with friends who have kids and then don’t have as much time to “hang out” with them. (Tragic, really.)

Eric has more examples.

I could go on about how hostile and self-centered (and in some instances, scary) these people seem, but I suspect I’d be overstating the obvious.

Ebay was advertising on this site when I was there, though I doubt Ebay even realizes it. Probably part of a package ad buy. The ad seemed incongruous, though, Ebay being a good place to get bargains to help raise kids… You know, the kids who will grow up to join the military to defend the freedoms of these yahoos, and pay the Social Security taxes necessary to feed them as they slide ever further into their dotage…
