    I blame the parents. I am a parent myself and I can see how all this unfolds before my own eyes, against my better judgment. Kids get spoiled, they don’t even know what to wish for on their birthdays or Xmas. Weird times. They don’t go out, I must force them to play outside. They return after 30 mins because they’re bored. Everything on a screen is the only acceptable entertainment for them. I don’t feel hopeless yet, but it’s hard. They are used to getting everything instantly. I’m rather strict and there are things they won’t get from me, I won’t buy them skins or packages for stupid online games. They also don’t get smartphones before a certain age. Other kids in their school they seem to have everything I have as a grown up. No restrictions, full access to internet and apps, every gadget you can think of. I’m talking about 10 year olds.  Other parents seem to pride themselves in giving their kids everything they want. It’s a certain demographic I won’t specify any further, but let’s say it seems important to them that they can afford these things and everyone gets to see it via their kids. 
     

    Sorry for my slightly off topic rant. I just hope I raise them to be something more than a consumer. The obsession with brands and products even among the youngest is off putting and concerning. 

     

    This rant was ON TOPIC & essential. I'm glad you're parenting your kids with good common sense!

     

    My mom had my brother's kids over for the weekend and she commented on their phone usage:  "They're glued to them, like they're trading stocks or something."  -Tiktok will be there tomorrow babe, now go to BED plz & thnks :lol:

    "It might be distasteful being here but my family would want me to be at the blink-182 show as it's my favorite band and music helps me in difficult times!"

     

    OF COURSE he should've attended the concert  :lol:

    Staying home wouldn't have effected the search in any way.

    As entertaining as it may be ..people have the right the post what they want. If the forum gets flooded by threads and out of control then certainly it would need an upkeep otherwise getting the occasional out of the norm topic is refreshing. 

    This thread gives me   "my friend broke she tail bone"  vibes.

    If people aren’t addicted loons , why are defending themselves?  I didn’t name anyone and yet some people are here so offended :chuckle:  I don’t even remember the names of those clapping in the instagram thread. I have no idea if they are the same here.
     

    Doth protest too much 

    If people aren't fond of Madonna's social media posts, why do they keep commenting?

    With that logic, you're telling me that you LOVE her recent antics  :lol:

    The finger-wagging, name-calling and scolding is just not cute anymore.

    That's the whole issue for me: I'm an addicted loon, delusional, in denial, completely blind, an imbecile lying to myself...   just for having a different perception of an IG post? WELL DAMN, SIS. Can we criticize Madonna's antics without criticizing each other for disagreeing? Trust me, I can go back & forth all day long, but why? We're ALL fans of the same woman! During my forum absence, I'd see M pop up on my timeline & think "WOW, she looks so good! Look at her staying busy between eras."

     

    I came back to see that many didn't share my POV :lol:

    With all honesty, this constant narrative that those of who don't agree with or join in the constant criticisms about the supposed current state of Madonna or her social media feed is a really tired and insulting one, and it's made this place a really miserable place to be sometimes.

    I'm getting slight flashbacks to the Hard Candy/ Sticky & Sweet era! Now THAT shit was entertaining  :inlove:
