I never said it was acceptable. Do you call you're children garbage when they misbehave? Does their behavior improve after you tell your child that you think they're garbage? I don't let my children hit anyone either, I just don't call them garbage if they do.

Normal people don't break the teachers glasses and punch them in the face. This is already major behavioral problems if your kids are school age and doing this.

Totally agree. But, normal people also don't go around calling children garbage either.

As someone who was a child and therefore interacted with thousands of other children in public school I can confirm some children are garbage. Do you not remember school? Were all of those people ok?

I remember troubled kids that didn't know how to handle what they where dealing with at home and internally. I don't remember any garbage kids, no. The idea that a child was just born garbage is just cruel, I hope one day you can learn to forgive and let go of that hate inside.

I remember plenty of folks who were garbage then and lots who are garbage now.

More than half the population just isn't worth anything.
