Libertarian babies we make our dreams come true.

American society will never change until children can participate in a robust market for parents, supported by appropriate vouchers. Of course, we will need exhaustive data on parenting effectiveness so that infants can make informed decisions about who will raise them

    Stu Pickles was kind of a terrible father, worse than Forest Gump. What does that say about your Americas,

    He made toys...

    Pretty much everyone in Rugrats is a horrible parent. The basic premise is all the parents who know each other pawn their kids off on one of the other couples (Usually Stu and Didi) who proceed to just drop off all the kids in some sort of playpen they assume will contain them and thus save them from the responsibility of having to watch the kids.

    Or they assume three year old demon fresh from the depths of Hell's heart Angelica is responsible enough to wrangle a bunch of toddlers.

    You are the end result of a “would you push the button” prompt where the prompt was “you have unlimited godlike powers but you appear to all and sundry to be an impetuous child” – Zero, 2022
    I always wondered how the hell the parents never noticed a toy screwdriver in Tommy's diaper

    I think that would be somewhat obvious, no?

    Also since I'm required to mention it any time Rugrats comes up, I'm exactly one day older than Tommy Pickles.

    This is some one parodying "run it like a business" thinking, just to be clear.

    Somewhere along the way, libertarian-minded opinion-wankers have forgotten that "transaction cost" is a thing.
