Ye cats

One cannot hold all women responsible for the thoughts and words of another woman. One simply cannot. And yet, it's hard to escape the thought that at a mere four years of age, this very young man has already surpassed his mother in rational maturity:
I woke up this morning to my nearly 5-year-old son, his big blue eyes close to mine, saying "Mama! Let's play!" Somehow, I dragged myself to the living room where he had set up dinosaurs. He told me the rules: "My dinosaurs have superpowers and yours don't. Mine find yours and then kill them with their power!" That woke me up.

I wondered if I should say something to him about killing -- again. I tried to redirect the violence in the play by having my dinosaurs offer friendship and joint living in a cave. He didn't bite. "No! they are not friends! OK mama? OK?" "OK," I said, in resignation. Because at that moment, it felt like I had lost that battle.

What happened to my gentle little boy who would cradle his dolls if they happened to fall on the ground? Where is the boy who would never consider the possibility of intentionally hurting another? And where did this one, who pretends to shoot others, come from? "My son will never do that," I used to say.

As usual, parenting is humbling.

Guns first showed up last year. Amidst his love affair with Mary Poppins and Annie, he also started asking about weapons. He wanted me to cut a gun out of cardboard so he could take it to school. Mortified, I imagined his teachers' reactions when they saw it.

We talked about how guns are best used for protection, only by those whose job it is to protect -- the police, the army. I told myself that he was interested in guns in the same way he was interested in a policeman's pad, handcuffs and hat -- fun tools of the trade.

Eventually, he didn't accept my explanation and started asking questions I didn't have the answers to. And they were questions that I ask myself all the time. Why would we need protection? From whom? Does protecting mean hurting someone else?
One hardly knows where to start. But it is educational to see the way the woman's mind immediately leaps to guns being "best used" by these strange magical authorities whose roles she could never even imagine usurping.

Maybe the boy should be having these conversations with his father. Funny, I don't recall him being mentioned at all in the article...

En-sigma said...

also don't notice her saying go ask your father.

Cuz guns might be for killing that venison you ate for dinner last night ( Sigma clan has not had hamburger at home in years). Also might be responsible for causing that feller breaking into the house to rethink his entire existence. or keeping the fox out of the hen-house (literally, not the way you sickos mean it). Come to think of it The Boy has a Red Ryder that he uses to keep the squirrels out of the bird feeder.

Side note - I like to take venison back strap, butterfly it, fill it with sauteed garlic cloves, onions, and some cherry peppers, then wrap the whole thing in a bacon weave (google bacon weave) and smoke it with hickory. If that don't make you want to buy a gun and a deer license, then I can't help ya, son.

She asks herself these questions all the time? So, she going to share any of her answers? I thought not. I was not in the least surprised that she is a therapist and also there is no mention of a father. Her hamsterbations and thought processes about guns and security are yet another example of the modern feminist mind (not an oxymoron).

I've been pleasantly surprised by the overall rationality of internet comments on stories like this. Considering how accommodating "official" society is of women like this author, the hoi polloi tend to bitch-slap this sort of thing pretty hard. It's dangerous to draw conclusions based on the Internet, since it can create artificial concentrations of opinion, but I do take it as a good sign that there are more non-brainwashed people out there than respectable society would like to admit.

This made me laugh: "...friendship and joint living in a cave".

Perhaps the dinosaurs went extinct when they adopted hippy values.

Eowyn said...

It's nice to see nature overcoming this woman's drive to emotionally castrate her son. Annie? Nice dinosaurs?

Sounds like there isn't a man around anyway. No little boy wants to play like that with their mom unless she was the only choice they have.

The boy wants to become a man! It's how he was made. It is the nature of the universe.

Why do we need protection? Because there are bad guys.

Who do we need it from? The bad guys.

Who protects? The GOOD GUYS!

The good guys are by the way MEN! That is what the boy so desperately wants to become, a man, a good man, who can be the defender the protector and the lover of good things and good people. He wants to win the fight! What fight? He doesn't know yet, but by god when it comes he wants to win it for the benefit of those he loves.

This poor stupid women will probably listen to some other equally stupid women and drug our little hero into feminine submission/mediocrity/nothingness and then wonder why at 32 he still lives in her basement surfing porn and playing violent video games.

Little boys need dinosaurs with super powers, light sabers and spaceships and to shoot real guns. They need to go to Scouts and Karate and whatever sports they are interested in. The need to get hit and knocked down. They need to lose the big game and go back to practice. They need to ride, shoot straight, and speak the truth. Then one day when the real bad man shows up to do bad things, he'll kick his ass.

Amen. This year I made a home-school lesson for my 7 & 10y/o while field dressing a late season doe. No back strap on this one unfortunately - thanks to a back shot from my tree stand with my Lightfield Hybred Sabot Slug. Of course i could have tried to establish a peaceful and friendly relationship with the deer, but i thought it better to murder her for the meat.

"...who would never consider the possibility of intentionally hurting another."

"...his love affair with Mary Poppins and Annie."

This is the way this stupid bitch describes her son.

Good Lord, I feel for the poor little chap.

My own mother may have been a cold WASP, but God bless her for not raising me this way.

I also noticed the lack of "Father". Mom is following a 5 year old's leadership?

She also uses the word "mensch". Sensing Jewishness.

Homeowner: "A robber broke into my house and threatened my family. I tried to redirect the violence by having my children offer friendship and joint living in their rooms."

Dean: "Revolutionary extremists swarmed my college. I tried to redirect the violence by having my faculty and students offer friendship and joint living on campus."

President: "Hostile foreigners invaded my country. I tried to redirect the violence by having my people offer friendship and joint living in their communities."

Ok, so we wonder why the kid is gravitating toward death, killing, guns, etc.? Maybe it's deep seated anger ignited by her attempts to castrate him? That would make me angry, too.

paul a'barge said...

go to images.google.com and google "Vered Benhorin husband"

Yup.

Sorry, toots, that's what bunny rabbits do, not dinosaurs.

pdwalker said...

Dexter,

Even bunny rabbits fight back.


Kids are actually quite perceptive. It takes years of misinformation, and miseducation to beat that out of them.

"Then one day when the real bad man shows up to do bad things, he'll kick his ass."

Yeah, or he'll die, because he followed the advice of a madman who thinks real life is like 24.

On topic though, I would gladly see this whore getting raped by a bunch of horny national guardists or have a cop shoot her son during a break in because of pot possession. Wonder if she'll trust the "authorities" THEN.

In all seriousness though, I think they should take that boy away from that cunt. There are child molesters that do less damage to children and I'm not even joking about this. He'll be bullied if this bullshit actually sticks to his mind.

Benhorin is a Jew.

At play, little girls cradle dolls, boys do not.

Joseph Dooley said...

A cursory word search of the HuffPo article yields ZERO occurrences of the words "father," "dad" and "husband."

It must be nice to spend your life in such a protected cocoon that you never have to think about defending yourself against anything. Has any woman in history been as coddled as the SWPL single mother living in a NYC apartment today? I suspect that even the wife of a Roman senator, living behind walls and being carried everywhere she went by a troop of slaves, was more in contact with the facts of life.

I'm guessing the father was a sperm bank donor. But that may just be my tastes.

Nice! That sure trumps my brush with olive oil/sprinkle garlic salt/grill method. Do you have any tips for ground venison?

Revelation Means Hope said...

What is up with some of you commenters?
Of course boys cradle their "dolls" if they fall. When they are freakin' 2, 3, or 4 years old. What, you think all boys should be out there ripping squirrel guts out by age 3 to get them ready to be a man? Seriously, what is wrong with you psychos?

Do you have zero comprehension of previous articles and posts about men having real and genuine empathy while women exhibit very little empathy for the suffering of others? Remember the post about Florence Nightingale? Where did you think that empathy came from?

Boys naturally feel deep empathy for others, if they are psychologically healthy and not future little sociopaths. The key to raising men is to balance that with toughness and a thick skin, teaching them to not complain and be willing to endure suffering as needed to grow and improve.

This is where you need a manly man to raise your sons. He can teach them by example this balance, to be the one who goes out and culls the farm animal that is sick and may infect the rest of the animals, but with kindness and not just in the cheapest fastest way. Who is willing to go out in pouring rain and get cold and wet and filthy to protect pets and animals and crops, without complaining. Who does his best to keep the coyotes, raccoons, and deer away from the crops and other animals, but as needed will go out and trap and kill them without a lot of wailing and crying about how unfair it all is....

What this stupid cunt doesn't realize is that the boy who cradled those dolls is still inside there, he is just growing into his natural role as a protector/predator balanced with empathy. Boys have to grow toughness to deal with the harsh reality of a hard world, where he will have to compete for resources, be fearless in the pursuit of women, and not reveal to any but the closest of friends that he still has that empathy inside that cries (silently) at the pain of little children, baby animals, and seeks to protect the helpless.

This is why single mothers should be shamed, ridiculed, scorned. They are a scourge of civilization, turning boys into sociopathic predators or mincing little pansies.

This is just another way that women destroy the world for themselves. The whole matrix of Alpha female single motherhood contributes to the development of Gamma males that no woman will want to date or marry. By the actions of single motherhood, she is further depleting the mating pool for the future females who will want Alphas and will have to settle for a generation of Gamma's. As it is, men are totally gun shy of divorced single moms furthering the issue by the absence of a father figure or male role model. It is a matrix of social decay that is already several generations in.
