I got booed at an hospital

[YoUr EyEs]

I got booed by the childrens there when I was attempting to read them a story that I wrote for them.
Obviously, they didn't like it and in the end, I was booed by them...


Not sure this needed a thread but, you know me...

And this is why I hate small children. Ungrateful little buggers.

The disrespect was much more than what I expected from them, I mean, I knew that was story wasn't good to begin with but, they could at least not do this kind of thing.

I am not fond of children either... They make me so depress.

[MahluaandMilk]

Small children just make my anxiety skyrocket, and then they're incredibly known for saying and doing things that frankly don't make sense to anyone but them, which makes a mess for those of us who have the ability to use logical thinking.

I second that. At least, now I know that I don't have to try liking them anymore, I tried too much.

It's hard to think that, nowadays, we can't even yell at them without people giving off stares...
Logic isn't the childrens strong suit.

That definitely sucks. Children are a pain, but they're still learning how to be people. It's natural, and they aren't all likely to be monsters once they've self actualized.

I know but, I can't like them, I have a lot of bad memories already by dealing with them lol.

[MahluaandMilk]

Yeah they can get my approval when they actually get actualized, lol, not while they're still being little buggers.

[Suuper-san]

you have my sympathy. kids can be heartless sometimes, but at least they are usually honest. If you ever want a review you know where to go. Ask them what they would write instead and make money off it.

I should have asked these monsters about that lol, I will be sure to remember next time

That's just a weird thing for small children to do. How old were they again?

[DeAngelus]

Guys, don't just go hating on children just because their unfiltered honesty... I find that savagely adorable.

[MahluaandMilk]

It's not just their unfiltered honesty. For me, it's that they're small little destructive germbags that just happen to be the right height for me to turn and hit their eye with my hand or elbow if I don't see them (which I usually don't, since they're far below eye level). The way they walk and run also just freaks me out. Like, do they not have knees? They also tend to even have no concept of volume control and their voices usually hurt my ears. Kinda hard to keep your cool when you feel like your eardrums are being stabbed over and over again.

All in all, they're too stressful for me to ever find cute. I like having my anxiety at a manageable level--like, you know, a level where deep breathing isn't painful. Not even exaggerating there. I worked at an afterschool program for a few months and I would get lightheaded around the small children because my body would automatically switch to shallow breathing.

I understand where you're coming from, and you're definitely not alone in that view, but your anxiety is not their fault (or yours).

I won't tell you that you need to spend all your time around small children, but it's not helpful to anyone to dehumanize them with epithets like "germbags." This is prejudice against an entire demographic. Pay in mind that while they have had less time to figure out how to express themselves, they have their own microcosms as real and vivid as ours. Mental patience as well as verbal patience is essential.
