Rigged



-Discipline your child-- you're a bully.
-Let him cry-- you're disconnected and insensitive.
-Comfort him-- you're spoiling him.
-Negotiate with him-- you're giving in.
-Stay home-- you're not trying.
-Bring them out-- you're disrupting others' good time.
-Ask for concessions-- you're milking the disability for special treatment.
-Ask for help-- you're weak.
-Do it yourself-- you're trying to be a martyr.
-Call out insensitivity-- you're on your high horse.
-Avoid confrontation-- you're not a strong advocate.


The game is rigged. All we have is each other. Keep your chin up.

  1. I highly recommend refusing to play--and I even manage it for periods of time. Because you are correct that it is rigged.
