Wacky Wednesday--We Shouldn’t Reprimand Other People’s Children

Note: Before reading the following arguments, please understand that they are not what I believe. On Wednesdays, I deliberately argue for wrong ideas, challenging my listeners to call and defend the obvious right answer, which is usually far harder than one would expect. This is a summary of what Wacky Andrew will be arguing, not a representation of what real Andrew believes.

~It’s their problem, not yours.
~Why are you sticking your nose in what doesn’t affect you?
~You don’t have any authority over those children.
~You’re circumventing the proper channels of authority.
~Would you want strangers confronting your kids?
~How often does it work out well?
~It’s an insult to the parents, even when you’re trying to be helpful.
