You'd rather not? Well, no one asked you. Parents don't ask the children, because children don't know what's good for them.

"No, little Batlet." Your mama pats you on the head. "You may not eat the entire bag of candy."
And do you know what eventually happens with parents? We grow up, we move out (shut up), and they no longer demand obedience. You know what they call it when one person gets to tell another what to do for their entire life, without the second person being able to argue? Slavery.
