CHILDREN TOLD TO SIT DOWN AND SHUT THE FUCK UP FOR 18 YEARS

from the daily mash CHILDREN should just shut it and do as they are told for once in their fucking lives, according to the results of a major academic study.
Researchers at Glasgow Clyde University found that instead of being treated like equals and asked for their opinion on a wide range of issues, children should button their fucking lips and remember who pays the sodding bills round here.
Professor Henry Brubaker said: "There has been a move in recent years to include children in decision making and respect their opinions. Why? They're idiots.
"Even doctors are now being told to take children seriously. So when some moronic little turd comes in with a 50p piece rammed up his nose, the GP is supposed to chat to him about interest rates? Give me a fucking break.
"We studied 50 children over a two-week period and concluded that rather than indulging these ghastly, violent, cheeky little shits, perhaps we should concentrate on feeding them three times a day and making sure they do outlandish things like their homework, brushing their teeth and going to bed at a reasonable hour. All the while telling them to sit down and shut the fuck up on a regular basis."
He added: "Once you've established a pattern you can then carry on doing that right up to the point where they find a job and get the fuck out of my house."
But Kyle Stephenson, 12, a spokesman for the British Youth Parliament, said: "Children have a right to be heard. In fact, I have just finished writing a really important thing about the environment.
"It's called Why Can't People Just Stop Doing Things That Are Bad And Start Doing Things That Are Really Good Instead.
"The Prime Minister has asked me to start work at the Number 10 Policy Unit as soon as my balls drop."

Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but I just do not see how this approach will cause any good. I am not sure what he means by 'even doctors are told to listen to children.' That is a very vague sentence and could mean anything. It of course does not mean that doctors should let the child self diagnose him or herself. This author I imagine probably has no children.
I am only 20, so my experience with children are rather limited, but I have a 5 year old nephew and while my parents will often get tired of arguing with him about things and just result to yelling I am patient and find in the end it works for the best. I listen to his side of the arugment, point out flaws and why that is not a good thing to do or w/e applies. While this always does not work I just take my stance and I tell him no, if he continues to argue (as 90% of children do, tho I imagine this is also a result of parents not properly talking to the child in the first place to reach an understanding) I just simply explain to him he can argue all he wants but the answer is no. Over time he is very willing to accept this and he has grown quit a fondness for me and he tends to obey me rather well as long as my points appear valid.

Essentially your parents get to vote for you, so if you have 6 kids, that's 6 extra votes (but the parent is the one that does it).
Most fucking stupid idea ever.
I haven't considered the idea completely on all grounds of course but that's not a totally bad idea. Flawed yes, but if you think about it the children are raised by their parents, so it is likely they will have the same view as their parents do. When the kids grow up they will be inclined to believe this view still (though of course this is by no means true all or probably even most of the time), so the children might have be in favor of how it is later on in life. I don't agree with this policy in the end, but merely trying to show both sides of the argument.
