Reasons my son is crying - TW?

by centerpath » Thu Apr 18, 2013 12:59 pm

I'm curious if I'm the only one triggered by this apparently popular meme?

That makes me incredibly sad to look at

You're not the only one centerpath.

I think it's meant to validate parents who feel stress from their childs tears.

Of course to me all I see is a child being mocked for having emotions.

I guess they've been on the today show and featured in a lot of websites and newspapers.

i got a sense it was a bit invalidating to the child... "you're crying for a pointless reason"

Probably the dumbest meme I've ever seen... I thought they were supposed to be funny? This is just kinda sick

Yeah, I personally wasn't a fan when I saw these either. As previously stated I can also see how this would be helpful to other parents who might feel like they should work extra hard so their child never cries. From what I know, it's meant to be funny....

The only one i thought was funny was "Conan O'Brien ripped him off!"

Other than that... that's sick.
