Why you wanna hate Miss Tyra, ita?
She's irritating, that's why.
Hec, I got a message from the injured Miss A, and she says they have no idea how bad it was. So I'm voting for no break of anything, just an ouchie.
Absolutely that.
Right. Sir. Honey.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I actually confess to being unable to watch her show, even when people I like are on.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I can't decide if I think that is ridiculous or cool.
I vote: lame.
You don't want to defer your authority to a gadget.

Yeah, that's ridiculous. Guess what? Parents do have to be the "bad guy" sometimes.

Guess what else? Enforcing boundaries is not being "bad." It's being a parent. It's one of your three parental Must Do responsibilities in Hec's Good Enough Parenting Guide. 1) Keep them Alive. 2) Love them to bits. 3) Set Boundaries.

It's not being bad, but it can be being "bad." In the sense that you might piss off the kid. But you know I'm all @@ about pissing off the kid.

OTOH, I should maybe get that for myself. Put the card in the other room.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
I think it's just a poor way to market it.
I can see that it could be useful, though my mom would just shut off the television and we knew better than to turn it on, again.
