Almost all my life I’ve absolutely despised children. Pretty much from the moment I stopped being a child I’ve hated being around children.
It doesn’t even matter what the child is doing. Whether they’re laughing and having fun or screaming and throwing a tantrum. The sound of a child being loud activates an almost primal rage that I can barely contain.
I’ve had to leave social gatherings/restaurants/grocery stores all because if I’d stayed I’d have made a complete ass of myself by screaming at a child just for existing.
It’s even worse with infants which makes me feel horrible because I know they can’t help it. I know the kids don’t know any better and it’s our job as adults to get them through childhood, but my blood boils when they get loud or demand attention.
Has anyone else dealt with something like this? Is there anything I can do to stop from getting so angry?
perhaps try having a child. I’ve known angry young men tun a leaf once theyve had a baby and have chilled the fuck out
There has never been a problem to which “try having a child” was a good solution.
Except, like, “my life is complete but I just really want a child to raise with love.”
Or you will have discovered that you still hate children. Then you will be stuck with children and they will be stuck with you.
Bro really just suggested having a child as a solution to a mental health problem.
Oh, op has a mental health problem? How do you know? Wouldn’t wanna judge or nothing
Considering the original poster’s intense, uncontrollable emotional reactions and the significant impact on daily life, it’s a logical inference, not a judgment, to suspect a mental health concern. This isn’t about making assumptions; it’s about recognizing patterns that often align with mental health issues. Suggesting someone have a child to potentially ‘fix’ these issues isn’t just irresponsible; it overlooks the serious nature of what’s been shared. It’s important to read carefully and respond thoughtfully in such discussions. Clearly an issue for you here.
Congratulations! This might be the worst advice ever posted to on the internet!
