Stupid Thread Ideas

Stupid Thread Ideas?

Once I was on a forum for whizkids
Rule nr.1 "There are no stupid questions"
I liked that concept

But for a more serious answer? Some threads I've encountered:

Insult the Person Above You

Who is The Wisest Person On RF?

Which spawned an equally stupid thread by me about Alyssa Milano

All of a certain someone's "I sent a letter to the government / boy scouts / etc" threads

My thread about whether men should wear crop tops

Where is Sacramento, California?
What is the fastest automobile?
In what countries is Spanish the primary language?

...and all other threads that can be answered with a quick Google search. :facepalm:

But of course it is demonstrably untrue, as any parent knows. ;)
Depends on your POV. Those were "wise whizzkids", not "parents"
Kids are known for being not judgmental..."parents" not so much
Kids just ask questions, whereas "parents" see "stupid questions"

“Let the little children come to me and do not hinder them, for to such belongs the kingdom of heaven"
Above Bible-verse makes a lot of sense in this context

Yes but children sometimes ask question they already know the answer to, or to which there is no sensible answer, to wind each other or their parents up. Children are not simply sweet little innocents. They are also mischievous, attention-seeking and sometimes want to annoy to see the result.

True. I always try to find the "Root Cause". So, why would a child do such a thing, I wonder?
IF the parent would be perfect, the child would be perfect. So, he got "this" behavior from the parents

Children are not simply sweet little innocents. They are also mischievous, attention-seeking and sometimes want to annoy to see the result.
A baby is pure. Then starts parenting...then start problems. IMO, the world would be much better, if parents take responsibility for their parenting. And stop blaming their child, if something goes wrong. I do remember in this context a wise man (Bible maybe, but not sure) who asked God "What did I do wrong, that my son became like this". That was a wise and responsible man, I immediately thought, when I read this. This would solve many problems we see nowadays between parents and children.

IF parenting was bad, you should blame the parents if their "product" turns out bad. Do not blame the child in such a case
Of course the child will be held responsible for his own actions afterwards. And he better figures it out, or he gets into trouble
Hence most parents decide "I will do it better than my parents did". But soon they find out, that perfect parenting is not so easy
Parenting can be a good opportunity to become humble, I think. But not all parents like to see it that way.
