HELP Teach My 8yo Son to READ!
21This was easily one of the most infuriating posts that I've read last week.
"I need help teaching my 8yo son to read." Yeah, have you considered putting your son to school?
Oh, this is one of those homeschooler parents, but I assume that parents that homeschool their kids would have the patience to, oh I don't know, teach them.
"I do not have the patience to teach him." You son of a bitch. How dare you be a parent to anyone when you have the freaking gall to say this monstrous statement?
"He is ADHD and doesn't like to sit still and focus." And? So are most kids these days. If you don't like this parenting job because you don't have the patience, please put your kid to a child protective service.
"It would have to be a woman." Because of course it has to be a woman. You suck at parenting. You are a shame to fathers everywhere around the world. You're not seeking someone to teach your son. You're seeking for someone to cheat on your wife.
"I am married and happy with my wife." Are you now? The fact that you have to reassure everyone that you are is like several billion folds worth of suspicions.
"I'm not going to leave anyone alone with my kids until I know you really well." You're not going to leave anyone alone with your kids? Then why do you want to hire someone to teach your kids? What the hell are you doing? Sitting on your ass? How about you do the actual freaking parenting work and not have someone else do the work that you're supposed to be doing in the first place?
What I find absolutely bizarre is this guy started advertising himself. He knows how to play the guitar. He knows writing and landscaping. Oh, good for you, my dude. What the hell does any of that have to do with anything?
"I can cook your dinner while you teach him to read." What does that have to do with anything? Why are you bargaining for someone to do this job by offering yourself? This sounds more like a dating profile than it is a homeschooling job offer.
"I am 43, white, and easy to get along with and communicate with." I don't know about you guys, but it sounds like this guy wants to cheat on his wife and date the homeschool teacher. What do you guys think?
