    You’re joking, obtusely, about abduction and murder of children. You expect people to be amused?

      Black comedy/gallows humor is a thing.

      You don’t need to be so uptight. Nobody’s actually advocating for the murder of children here.

      This is the internet. Some people will. Probably a lot. Do you expect everybody to have your exact same sensibles and kind of humor?

      I get it. I’d bet the other commenters don’t have kids. There’s hypothetical jokes about kids, then there’s jokes to someone about their actual kid. Commenting on a post VS replying to this person who has a kid.

      I grew up with a very paranoid father. Somehow this guy has a stack of rough city survival stories but I couldn’t leave the suburban block. I don’t know the best way to raise a kid, but a watch and more freedom to roam sounds nice.

        I have a kid. She turns 18 in September. I thought it was funny.

        I also still make jokes about my mom, and she is now sitting on top of a shelf at Dad’s house as of a few months ago.
