I asked my 5 year old if she wanted to protest. She said “what if they take me away, too?”

I asked my 5 year old if she wanted to come to a protest with me this weekend. Once I had explained what we were protesting, she looked at me with tears in her eyes and said “what if they take me away, too?”

I don’t know how to have these conversations with my kids

So now kids believe they are going to be taken away or shot at school? Their reality is so skewed.

Maybe not. Maybe prescient.

Every year government gets bigger and controls things more tightly.

If mommy or daddy gets to uppity against the government maybe they will come and take little Bobby away.

Government is not your friend. Even under Trump it is getting bigger and more tyrannical all the time. And it is fighting back against the forces trying to restrain it.

Beware and be ready.

"I don’t know how to have these conversations with my kids"

Then you shouldn't be a parent.

What would the 5 year old say to it’s liberal mother who protests against a preborn baby’s right to life?

This 5 year old has probably had to repeatedly counsel the mother on the possible negative results of her foolish and risky behavior.

Someone has to be the adult.

The same way your mother talked to you about Bill Clinton blow jobs.

I suggest she take her 5 year old and sneak into another country and see what THAY do to her daughter, and her as well.

It is not their “reality.” It is what they are supposed to say.

How sad for this child! (if true)

My 6-yo grand says funny, cute, precious kid stuff — and always with a sweet smile on her face.

But then, we’re careful not to ask her to attend unsafe places and scare her with the insanity going on, so there is that.

The more I read through her twitter the more I realize how hopelessly deranged she and her followers are. Loony tunes to put it mildly.

My three year old grandson has been killing me with his rubber band gun. He yells “I kill you Pappa”, and shoots me with a rubber band. I fall down and act like I'm dead, and he cracks up laughing. He knows that I'm pretending to be dead. He erased about 10 of my apps, and downloaded several games on my phone including my keep app with all my passwords. I shall raise him to love GOD, to protect the women in our family, and our country. I shall teach him the ten commandments, and to fear our LORD. I will teach him the proper way to handle a firearm. He shall not be defenseless. I will teach him to treat everyone with respect, and I will instill in him a respect for women. Both of my sons are in military, and I will teach my grandson to respect all men and women in the armed services. Trust our LORD, and turn our boys into men.

what kind of a sick, deranged woman, totally lacking in judgement, would ask her 5-yr old that?
And then to add mindlessness to imbecility she had to add, "Once I had explained what we were protesting, she looked at me with tears..."

Exploit her own child to play "justice warrior" games and feel good about herself?
That IS child abuse.

Because liberals are, in fact, children who live in a world of fantasy.
