Police In Baltimore Are Amped And Ready To Tell You About Every Detail Of Damage Inflicted Upon Patrol

When your child says “Why can’t I get a puppy?”

Instead of defaulting to “My house, my rules”

Try “Any pet is a lot of responsibility. A puppy would have to be fed, walked, and taken outside to use the bathroom several times a day and taken for regular check-ups and vaccinations at the vet. You can’t do all of that by yourself, and I/we don’t have the time or money either.”

When your teenager says “Why can’t I come home at 2:00 this Saturday?”

Instead of defaulting to “My house, my rules!”

Try “The time you come home is a matter of respect and consideration. I/We will not only be concerned for your safety, but we would either be disturbed in the middle of the night when you arrive or forced to stay up for several extra hours waiting.”

When your child says “Why am I not allowed to do this thing?”

Instead of defaulting to “My house, my rules!”

Try actually communicating a legitimate reason, because children pick up on subtlety and on context and on the unspoken messages, and it’s better to teach children lessons like “You should think really hard before taking on new responsibilities” and “It’s important to show consideration for the needs of the people with whom you share a living space” than lessons like “It’s okay for people to demand your absolute obedience so long as you’re dependent on them for survival.”

Best opening scene 

Just had an idea for a horrible art game

One artist draws something, and then makes it a silhouette, gives this to another artist who doesn’t know what the actual drawing is, and they have to make a drawing within the silhouette based on what they think it is 

Then the original and new version are compared 

ok from what i can tell, the mcdonalds stabbing was NOT a szechuan stabbing, but just a regular mcdonalds stabbing. it was a fight between 2 employees and no articles i read mentioned a sauce altercation
