A nation that hates its children is a nation that isn’t going to be around much longer.

“A nation that hates its children is a nation that isn’t going to be around much longer.”

We don’t hate kids...we hate the lousy parents that fail to supervise or discipline their kids.

I love bacon, but I still don't want fly with the precursor.

I don't think it's so much hatred for children as it is disgust for some parents.

A little baby likely to cry, especially on takeoff and landing because it bothers their little ears, but I've had to tolerate some ill-mannered, obnoxious older kids while traveling and it's always because the parents let Little Snookums annoy the hell out of people until somebody finally says something.

This is not a nation that hates children.

This is a nation who still believes in the old saying “children should be seen and not heard”.

I agree with that saying.

I don’t think it’s hatred for children, but rather extreme irritation with parents of poorly behaved children.

A young child is usually, quite rightly, the center of its parents’ world. What some parents don’t seem to grasp is that their child is NOT the center of everyone else’s world.

The U.S. is becoming just like France. Every special “section for children” is another sign of an increasingly silly, selfish, tuned-out, cold-hearted, backwards nation.
