i added a english voiceover to this for accessibility because it’s a powerful speech and should be heard

[celebrity kid 🇵🇸 @celebrikid]

you and everyone else who believes in your child ownership fantasies couched in “parental rights” (not a thing - kids have rights, not parents) are the real safeguarding risks. giving parents the legal green light to abuse children willingly. disgusting.

[celebrity kid 🇵🇸 @celebrikid]

mothers are agents of the patriarchy who systemically abuse kids, so blaming/shaming them is kind of imperative for youth liberation. adults appeal to “feminism” via “you’re woman shaming” because they don’t see kids as people. but feminism without youth lib isn’t feminism.

@bryan_johnson Cute poem, maybe bottles of cold pressed juice or bottled smoothies would be another option.

Or if you started selling nutty pudding as a prepared meal, you could give out that.

“most parents are categorically *not* child abusers*” 🙄

[celebrity kid 🇵🇸 @celebrikid]

kids having rights in general threatens the adultist hegemony, there is so much pushback at the most basic rights. corporal assault for example - there are decades old scientific studies about how bad it is, yet most parents still do it and it’s still legal in most countries.

“we should be wary of arguments that appeal to common sense”

this is so real omg. after all a nazi’s “common sense” is to be a nazi.

Children: "Please stop abusing us."

Adults: "We don't listen to children."

[celebrity kid 🇵🇸 @celebrikid]

this! adults *know* kids hate school and will readily acknowledge it. this should be enough to want to abolish it. adults don’t because they don’t want to lose the power they have over kids. “kids are *supposed* to hate school because they’re *supposed* to remain oppressed”

[R.L. Stollar @RLStollar]

This article by @jordanboydtx on homeschooling for The Federalist claims that, "Statistics show that actual child abuse is not higher among homeschooling families." Her source? Brian Ray, who is literally accused of criminal child abuse himself!

children are oppressed. more than you realize. arguments like “brain development” (as devised by white male pseudoscience™️) have historically been used to uphold the oppression of a number of marginalized groups. it is NO DIFFERENT for kids.

[TheDisabilityEnthusiast @twitchyspoonie]

Most teachers control whether or not their students can even go to the bathroom........ I could say far more, but like....how are they not oppressing kids?

[celebrity kid 🇵🇸 @celebrikid]

“good” parents on the left quietly benefit from child ownership while telling themselves it’s ok because they aren’t like the conservative ones who spank their kids and are vocally pro abuse. if they cared they’d hate the power they have, and say it’s wrong. but they don’t.

@dogslovealex HABBY BDAYYY 🥺🥺🥺

[Stacey Patton @DrStaceyPatton]

Yep, yelling at your child is also a form of toxic stress that changes the brain. A new report finds that yelling is as damaging as physical or sexual abuse.

like literally my merry band of uni friends living in an 8 bedroom house at 19 felt more like a family than the adults i grew up with. kids should have that option, because they aren’t property as much as adults want them to be.

[celebrity kid 🇵🇸 @celebrikid]

and for those who feel insulted that i just compared kids opting out of the oh so sacred nuclear family to choosing new roommates, good, because parents/guardians can be way colder, harsher and more abusive than you would normally encounter with strangers living together.

[celebrity kid 🇵🇸 @celebrikid]

for some it’s a dire situation they need to leave, but for other kids it could simply be a case of feeling that their current situation isn’t right but not really knowing why - like i’ve had living in house shares. I changed it up because my adult privilege allowed me to
