I don’t know how to break it to you all but a bad parent will parent badly with books and a good parent will parent well with an iPad.
Ipads don’t make the “ipad kid”. What upsets you is a child who is being given something distracting and potentially obnoxious to those around them so that the parent doesn’t have to deal with engaging with their child. And it’s not new.
I grew up before the invention of the ipad and the complaints were the same. It was “tv kids” and “Gameboy kids”. And it was book kids too, though people rarely complained about those kids because it didn’t make noise and bother them personally so they no longer cared. Because the “it’s for the good of the child!” argument dried up real fast as soon as it was something that didn’t affect them.
A good parent who is engaging with their child’s interests can do so with an iPad or television. A bad parent can say “take this and leave me alone” with a book or a toy. The problem is that some kids were raised by objects. By whatever kept them busy and entertained and away from their parents. Sure, there are parents who need to realize that’s what they’re doing and would benefit from changing their parenting style by limiting electronics use, but “if you give your kid an electronic toy, it means you’re a bad parent” is not the same thing and largely misses the actual source of the problem.
Your arbitrary standards of what “good children” doing “good child activities” is as restricting.
wait so the new superman animated show has clark kent transforming into superman a la magical girl anime sequence???
if your man does this that’s not your man that’s sailor moon
Sailor Krypton.
I want to point out that this transformation sequence is inspired by Precure! The cape thingy comes from Cure Mermaid’s transformation sequence!
I know nothing about this Superman show but I can confirm it was inspired by Pretty Cure, not Sailor Moon. I saw a tweet going around the other day featuring concept art for this scene and it was titled “Pretty Cure Style”. I’d link to the tweet but I’ve since quit twitter so you’ll have to trust me on this
Update: I forced my way through twitter again to find the proof:
There once was a man from the sticks Whose limericks stopped at line six. They were fine till line five Then they took quite a dive — But the problem is easy to fix If you just ignore the last line, it doesn’t even follow the rhyme scheme oh god I’ve really lost control of this thing I’m so sorry…
There once was a fellow named Dan, Whose poetry never would scan. When told this was so, He replied, “Yes, I know– It’s because I try to squeeze as many syllables into the last line as I possibly can.”
On Tumblr did lasses and lads Their way with fail poetry had. You’re having your fun But you’re fooling no one - It takes skill to do something this bad.
