Chicken Soup composes a Haiku...


BULLIES, LIKE FECES,

EMERGE FROM THE ORIFICE,

OF FAMILY PRIDE.


One of the strongest taboos in American culture is to criticize parents for the tragic results of their criminally incompetent role modeling. There has never been a shortage of jump-on-the-bandwagon cowards willing to attack (verbally or otherwise) the parents of Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold, but in the 13 years since the Columbine massacre washed across all of our television screens, how many prominent people (politicians, media deities, celebrities, etc.) have openly criticized the parents of bullies for role modeling, signaling approval of, or rewarding the sociopathic behavior of their precious wonderkinds? In your opinion, should parents react to their bully's sociopathic behavior with punishment, or should they reward his majesty with expensive, hypermasculine automobiles?

  2. Very nice action music.

    I could easily envision a stock car race with a few crashes and exciting changes of position.

    But I'm still not sure what it has to do with bad parents, the bullies they raise, or the ongoing denial about the toxic social environment in our nation's school system.

  4. We have neither written laws nor social taboos against criminally incompetent parenting. Do an internet search for terms like "Little League Parents" or "Bad Breeders" and you'll better understand events like Columbine.

    Bad parents produce bullies.
    Bullies create a toxic environment for other kids.
    Cowardly adults blame bullying on the victim.
    Victims react by being destructive.
    More cowardly adults blame the victims's behavior on videogames.

    It's not rocket science.
