First time he’s ever cared about his children.

      I don’t fly helicopters either. But when I see one stuck in a tree, I know that’s not right.

        Can you just educate yourself to the fact that words have multiple usages, and children both means youth as well as offspring so we don’t keep having this retarded conversation?

          Do you really believe I don’t know individual words are used in different ways?

          I thought it would be obvious, that I just believe useing words with the least ambiguous and narrowest meaning available, is a more clear way to communicate.

          In this case offspring would undeniably be the term to fit the meaning parents want to convey. Continuing to use child is a sign their concept of their offspring hasn’t kept up with the current reality. The fact that this behavior is common dosen’t mean it’s correct and immune from criticism.

          Both it, and your attitude of infallibility, are just two of the many windmills I fight against.

            Bro do you understand tilting windmills is foolish, and that’s the point of the expression?

            You being butthurt about common linguistic usages isn’t your valiant struggle, it’s your autism acting up

              I certainly do. You got the point perfectly.

              It’s my pointless, useless, impossible, imaginary battle against the world itself. But hey. You don’t fight the fight because you can win. You fight the fight that needs fighting.
