I cant believe this tweet is how I find out
now all the things you guys have told me about american high schools are starting to make sense
holy shit.
You're not really supposed to say it this way, because its considered crass, but here in the US children are culturally and legally considered essentially the property of their parents.
Note that its considered more crass to point this out than it is to treat children as property in the first place.
If you start asking and aren’t afraid to make things kinda uncomfortable, you will find no end of stories about parents treating their kids as property in the US. Fraudulently using their child’s information to purchase things with their credit score is one I hear fairly often nowadays, and the troubled teen/conversion therapy industries exist to make money abusing children with no consequence. It’s bad here y’all.
