That's just it. A normal, rational adult/parent understands the limitations of a child's worldview and translates accordingly. The nutcases choose to take comments like that literally because they are unwilling to apply the slightest amount of sense/logic.
It's one of the most heinous and destructive examples of people who elect to be "children by choice" in order to avoid the basic responsibilities and accountability required in the adult world of reality.
No wonder people will beg for Obamacare even though the reality is that Obamacare is a death march. The simpletons cling to their childish healthcare-for-all fantasy because intellect and wisdom is something they willingly exchanged for the promise of free carousel rides, popsicles and lollipops.
They embrace and celebrate their reality-challenged offspring because after all, the poor kids were purposely molded into the image of the parents.
For all the work Cher has had done on herself to look "beautiful", the rot of her character is made manifest in the abomination known as "Chaz". Poor thing.
IMHO, your post is right on the mark. Many small children identify as something they're not - one of mine believed he was a dinosaur for the longest time. We were worried because he bit his brother once. Other children identify as cats or dogs. Imagine playing along to the point where you tell everyone to treat the child like a cat or dog, thus reinforcing that behavior.
Thank you, you are exactly right
I guess the urinal is soon to become a relic of the past.
