The highlight for me is coming up with some weird pseudoscience justification for why it’s okay to hit your kids.
Malcolm and Simone Collins with their children – Octavian George, four, Torsten Savage, two, and Titan Invictus, one – at home in Pennsylvania.
bye
they definitely missed out on naming two of the daughers ursa minor maior and ursa maior minor.
Their next kid will be named Ultima Thule, and they will claim very loudly that this is just because they are so big fans of astrology and that they never heard of the controversy regarding the name.
I don’t know where to start.
“Dad, why is my sister’s name Octavia George?”
“Because your mother loves the Roman Empire.”
“Thanks Dad.”
“No problem Industry Americus.”
These people are full of shit popping off like they do after THREE kids. Big fucking deal, my parents had three, and my brother and I were accidents. And they let us have heat in the winter and they didn’t hit us. Three is still normal!
There are some more lovely sneers in r/longreads
Does anyone else feel like we are setting up to a near future where people who choose not to have kids are seriously discriminated against?
