If Your Child Said They Were A Cat

[Higgs]

I'd go full Fred Flinstone on their arse.

[verb_to_trust]

Possibilities are boundless. They may really be a cat at heart, and in mind. But their bodies are human of course. This distinction must be made clear.

Sure, but those types of scenarios are going to require professional guidence. Remember, 999/1000 times this is really going to just be your kid testing the adults in his world to see if they are morons.

Just be supportive. Maybe they are testing the boundaries of their imaginations.

When you say be supportive can you think of something specific you would say? Just curious what you would view as supportive verbage.

[dad]

Unfortunately dad, this isn’t the case. It’s more of verb’s douchebaggery spilling over from the transgender thread in which he equates transgender people to those who say they are cats.

that may well be the case, wease.

i think, and i'm sure a lot of us here think, that his trolling is ridiculous and unnecessary. it is. however, behind that troll is someone who's likely insecure about a lot of things.

and someone who genuinely misses their pet, and that bit of vulnerability is coming through here...even in an attempt at trolling.

It all comes down to love my friend. If you’re loving and supportive chances are they’re not going to treat you like an asshole. Ask in what way you can help their cat lifestyle and if it’s reasonable go along with it

Are you suggesting verb has been using a litter box?

[verb_to_trust]

I'm not a parent, so I won't have to worry about this sort of thing. However, if any of you think your kids won't test your boundaries with something stupid, you're wrong. Especially if you are a new parent. It's only getting worse it seems.

If you do this and they are not truly identifying as a domestic short hair, then your kid just lost all respect for you though.

I donated all my cat stuff. It hurt to have it around. I have her ashes, a painting of her a photo book and a small beaver toy she liked best. That's it.

No because your goal isn’t to figure out what is true but to love and support them no matter what within reason. And if they’re lying to you then that is on them and they will regret it

If your kid thinks they are a cat for real you need to figure that out because they are likely mentally ill.

It depends on how it is acted out. It’s possible to think you’re a cat in someway and still live a high functioning productive life

I know there are people who have gotten surgery to look like a cat. I would not hire that person.

If they are not harming themselves or anyone else what difference does it make

[tree_]

Maybe you wouldn’t hire them to be the face of your company? That’s understandable because some people are not accepting and scared of what they don’t understand. So let them have a job somewhere else, assuming they’re otherwise qualified, where they’re not representing you and deterring business in that way

Didn’t Axl Rose make Stephanie Seymour use a litter box?

[Ms Harmless]

Unfortunately dad, this isn’t the case. It’s more of verb’s douchebaggery spilling over from the transgender thread in which he equates transgender people to those who say they are cats.

I saw that, and begged myself to leave it alone

[verb_to_trust]

So, forcing cat identity? Fascinating.

I shouldn't have taken the thread off topic

[tree_]

A world where some people didn’t think they were cats sounds pretty boring to me

[verb_to_trust]

Remember that line at the end of Vanilla Sky from Penelope Cruz?

I'll see you in another life, when we are both cats!
