Today I'm only going to go off about one subject because it's a huge problem for me when people do this. I am a parent now so I feel entitled to speak on this subject now.
People who spend all their weekends and even some week nights in the bars when they have children at home!
Okay...so let me get this down to detail. I seriously HATE when parents go out to bars on the weekends and even go out during the week sometimes. I'm not talking your occasional go out have a good time ask grandma and gramps to watch the kids. I'm talk your every weekend bar trash.
Listen you might think it's cute, or that your "just doing you" and you "deserve to be happy". Well let me tell you this, when your children are young you will NEVER get that time back. Ever. You can pawn them off all you want and then post a few pics on your Instagram, Facebook, Twitter etc. and act like you truly are a great parent when in reality you're putting yourself before your kids.
If you are receiving state aid, living with your parents or child support or all of the above...maybe you should rethink your spending habits. Is all of this really fair to your kids? To not have a life outside of being raised by grandma and grandpa while mommy or daddy goes out and get plowed all the time? No, no it's not. People are selfish. If you wanted to party you never should have had kids.
The people who do this shit and then go home at night and sleep or pass out peacefully shouldn't have their kids. It's time to grow up and stop being selfish. If that's the life you want to live then give your kids to the other parent or someone who will show them unconditional love.
Just remember in 5-10 years when your child looks at you with resentment and hatred instead of respect and love...you can only blame yourself and your dirty selfish habits. Children are innocent. Don't let your selfishness and lack of priorities taint them.
I look at this little boys face and cannot imagine going out and getting plowed having my parents watch him then snuggling up the next day to him hungover smelling like yesterday's trash from the bar...I will never give up these years with my children or my boyfriends kids. They are too precious to not make as many memories as they deserve.
Get it together people. Stop being losers. Be the parents your children deserve.
End of rant.
