i.e., when they ask how long they are to be in time out, are we supposed to pretend there's a rational justification for the 10-15 minutes, or should we go with "basically until i'm over it/according to my whims/per my caprices/when i start thinking about something else" — PolitiTweet.org

in parenting, are we supposed to be telling the kids that punishments etc are rational, or are we supposed to be transparently acclimating them to the reality that, in life, authority is just a blunt fact — PolitiTweet.org

this is my suspicion. i am in the existentialist camp; i always explain that things are arbitrary ("why can you feed the kitties people food, but we can't?" "because i'm the god emperor of the kitties, and you aren't") and agree with them that it's not fair, lol — PolitiTweet.org

@ebruenig My parents took the latter approach and I ended up a commie, pretending the world is rational is how you get right libertarians
