I certainly wouldn't want anyone teaching my kids to try to live up to a positive example. Why, the next thing you know, I'd probably have to explain some of the nasty things I've said and done in my life.

I mean seriously, can you imagine what might happen if their little consciences started acting up to a point where they felt guilt, remorse and a sense of responsibility for their actions? Pandemonium, sheer pandemonium!

What would happen if they felt some strange obligation to always try to do the right thing? They'd be shunned and embarrassed beyond belief! Ostracized and humiliated by their peers, life as they know it would be an absolute nightmare for the poor little dears.

We certainly wouldn't want to encourage our kids to show kindness, dignity and respect to others, not to mention themselves, and we mustn't ever let anyone or anything encourage them to help others less fortunate than themselves, oh no! My goodness, gracious!

What kind of world would that be!!!

Yes, yes, you're quite right. No sense wasting time or money on trivial issues like those!
Lolol
