The more our society evolves, the more I wonder how our generation ever survived childhood.

Some mental health experts say characterizing children as "good" or "bad" on a list can limit personal growth, inflict shame and doesn't reinforce desired behavior.

Threatening children with a 'Naughty or Nice' list is misguided at best and manipulative at worst," Chazz Lewis, a parent and teacher coach in North Carolina, wrote on Instagram. "You can still do all your fun traditions without lying to your child to manipulate them."
quote:
Mental health experts checked the “naughty or nice” list in a 2019 video campaign titled “A Mental Health Message From Santa Claus" by the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI).
"I think I did this all wrong," an introspective Santa said in the PSA. "It started with good intentions, a way to motivate behavior, to codify gift-giving, to streamline deliveries, but 'naughty or nice' — as if some kids don't have enough to worry about, only to have me judge them without context, without perspective, without any sort of doctorate in psychology ... 'naughty or nice.' Did I condemn every kid who already felt like a misfit toy?"

They are upset because they are on the naughty list.

How do the experts feel about The 10 Commandments?
Isn't it kind of the same but for Adults?

I wonder how they would characterize my back sassing "bad" arse getting a "good" imprint of the raised lettering from my Dad's belt.

Ummm YES THAT'S THE POINT. A little shithead realizes he's on the bad list, feels awful about it, then decides to be a good boy. That's literally the entire point of the whole deal.

Many of those same experts claim children should be allowed to take puberty blockers.
So... I already knew they were bat shite crazy.

Good. It should cause shame.

Fine. Instead of coal in the stocking you'll get an arse whooping. People need to stop raising pussies

They say it takes a village to raise a child, but apparently it isn't Christmas Village.
