  • Tons of people have kids, tons of people want kids. The idea of ‘you’re a child’ being the worst insult is baffling, honestly.

    yeah tbf i’ve never set foot in the US; i get this notion from social media, movies, books, etc.

    wait let me record a 10 second sequence of a movie.

    (the video should have audio, in case it doesn’t play, a download should do it)

    anyways the woman says “have you ever considered that you’re wrong? hah, of course not! you’re a child.” upon which the other person freaks out. which i have seen sooo many times in pieces of media (especially from the US)

    anyways, meanwhile, children can actually be really reflective and understand a lot, also when they’ve made mistakes or hurt someone. so saying that somebody is a “child” when they can’t reflect on themselves, in my opinion, is inaccurate.
