Should ‘Buffets’ be taught in school?

[lightbulb27]

Just went to Chinese buffet… saw too much stupid American behavior. Little kid touching the food and pushing utensils into the trays…without adult. Teen girl touches top of a plate… then puts it back on top the stack.

Looks like people need to be taught manners and require certification before going to buffet

Yes… at their cost

No

It's a parenting thing. Kate Millet Disease is destroying American women. As such, they forfeit all sense of sound judgment. Then, they get a man, get him to have kids with her, then become Karens and scare him away. Suddenly, she has to deal with the kids herself.

She's delusional, because of Kate Millet Disease. So she won't discipline. Has a "my kid can do no wrong" view of life. Kids become hoodlums with no common sense or manners. And no father who can set them straight. Because no matter how he does it, he's always damned for even trying!

As they get a tiny bit older, it's all about her. The kids can't get her advice on anything. She's too lost in herself to be of value to anyone, including herself! Crippled intellectually, and weak spiritually. Yet, brainlets and sociopaths call that "empowerment," so she will resist correction!

So left to themselves, the kids feel they can do whatever the hell they want, with no consideration for others whatsoever. And if this lands them in jail, they blame the system! Which is partially correct, because the system views Kate Millet Disease as female empowerment, rather than a mental disorder!

Not teaching "buffets", but more like plain basic MANNERS. In the situation you mentioned, it's more like simple hygiene! I agree with you.

On more than one occasion, I've had to correct our 10yr old grandson about NOT touching things. He wants to put his hands on just about everything, especially in a restaurant!

Maybe all the covid isolation has damaged their sense of connection. Kids like to touch stuff … one I saw was intentional causing problems.

I mean we had a "health" class when I went to school and this among other things was covered in it. But c'mon common courtesy starts with your parents. Keep in mind they are kids though and kids do do stupid thoughtless things from time to time because... well, they're kids lol.

[lightbulb27]

True… leave them to their own and their bedroom is a mess.

Not everything needs to be taught in a public school. What happened to parenting?

[lightbulb27]

Not sure. Loss of parents and family. Maybe parenting needs to be taught as well

[Jamie05rhs]

@lightbulb27 Maybe. But I don't believe in a nanny state. I don't like the idea of the public schools creeping into every aspect of everyone's lives.

There should be an entire course taught just on how you don't fish out just the meat pieces from the broccoli beef tray.

If you eat at buffets, you get exactly what you pay for. If you bitch about it, YOU are the problem. Not the other low class peasants who seem to disappoint you. Ell oh ell!

Interesting how one kid and a teenager at a Chinese buffet were so off-putting to you that you saw this as a greater symbol of American decline.

[lightbulb27]

5 minutes observation. Compare to European kids I saw recently… it is.

Kids need to learn math and history. Let them bring their lunch in a lunchbox like i did.

[Dinosaursandanime65]

That kind of sounds like something the parent should handle

[lightbulb27]

You’d think…but apparently not

[Dinosaursandanime65]

Oh yes oh yes, I understand the joke.

[Dinosaursandanime65]

I have a joke too. Two in fact;

YOU KNOW WHO ELSE

Oh no bro, who just jizzed?

[NathanDavis]

that's just lazy parenting...

[jasco]

It should be common sense

[Iron_Man]

That’s up to the restaurant owners

[lightbulb27]

Yea… they put up signs but people don’t think. Why we need two parents. I’d have someone train people in the store… good idea
