    On Raising Your Kids to Grow Up and be Assholes:

    To the millions of parents who let their kids sit in restaurants with their eyes glued to whatever electronic is most popular at the time…

    All you’re doing is breeding little robots who will grow up with no concept of how to act in public.

    I remember being a kid and having to order my OWN food, and “look the waitress in the eye”.

    Whatever happened to that?

    Your kid can’t survive a meal like potential stable human being? Maybe you have bigger problems than the battery life on their Leap Frog.

    Looking the waitress in the eye…whatever happened to that?

    you're doing it wrong people

    doing

    it

    wrong
