Sure, I fantasize about doing this sort of shit with my kid sometimes too.

But you don't do it.

I guess for some people the dumber you are the more impressed you are with your own ability to fool a child. Probably because that's the last stage of their child's life where they can still pretend to be smarter....

Ten years later:

That's all fine and dandy until they misbehave and you can't follow through by sending them to school on the weekend.

This is just one of the many examples of why parents today have grown so soft and refuse to give any true punishment to their children. Back in ye good old days when I was a wee lad I went to school 12 hours straight no breaks or anything and if I didn't my dad broke a metal chair over my rear end. Then all the sudden the democrats took over and things suddenly got worse. Overall I think people should definitely toughen up and parent their kids more effectively if they want to defeat crooked B*den and make America great again.

You can't convince me this isn't an actual tweet

Hey guys! New copypasta just dropped!!

I think this is another case of a joke that people have taken seriously. There's no chance this would work in reality. It just makes for a funny hypothetical.

Idk how to tell you but there are people in here that think this is a good idea. If it is all sarcasm then thank god, but i doubt it is, since they are arguing it.

Oof, this is definitely a:

Every lie incurs a debt to the truth

Sort of thing. It's not going to be fun when your child understands that there is no school on weekends, you'll lose a lot of trust overnight with this.

Every kid survived the Santa lie.

The difference is none of this kid's peers will have a similar experience
