One of the most insightful drawings that I have ever seen.

1. A picture is worth a thousand words...

2. So much truth here.

This has to be one of the most accurate cartoons ever drawn.

3. Accurate but there is more.

Yes the wealthy do this. However the poor and middle class also do it.
It is child abuse no two ways about it.
Find your morality somewhere, but do find it.

4. Mothers don't cause all children's faults

Neither do fathers. Some kids have cruel behaviors that are their own. But moms are often targeted for blame.

5. Perhaps, but in most cases, children have to be taught to hate...

6. And mothers are targets for blame.

We like to think of children as innocent vessels, but they come into the world with many individual traits of their own. When they are taught to hate, the lessons may not come from the mother. She may do what she can to correct them. Or not. The father’s role should not be ignored either.

7. So re-imagine the picture with a father behind the bully child...

I think you are focused on the wrong aspect of the pic.

8. Perhaps.

But I get tired of seeing mothers taking the blame for kids who go wrong. Kids and young adults are not just the sum of influences. They are born with or without a good compass sometimes.

11. I'm with you, I see a generic parent, but I get the point

9. Wow

Isn't that the truth!

[we can do it]

10. Concept right on, execution not so good.
