:A real ChildWiki would have resources by and for children and those who care for and support children. Your ChildWiki might as well have recipes for preparing and serving children for dinner, a Modest Proposal, and that is not far from what's on one of your pages. Mayonnaise. Everything is better with mayo. | :A real ChildWiki would have resources by and for children and those who care for and support children.

:To you, children are objects, pawns in a pseudo-intellectual game, "free" if they have access to guns, sex, and drugs, and "oppressed" if they don't. Nathan, that's '''''really weird.''''' That debate over "peace" on the ChildWiki front page, you report in the article here, demonstrates how utterly isolated you are, and thus how isolated any wiki that you dominate will be, unless you change your spots. --[[User:Abd|Abd]] ([[User talk:Abd|talk]]) 13:19, 12 March 2014 (UTC) | :To you, children are objects, pawns in a pseudo-intellectual game, "free" if they have access to guns, sex, and drugs, and "oppressed" if they don't.

::Mises [http://mises.org/humanaction/chap21sec7.asp writes], concerning the Industrial Revolution, "It is a distortion of facts to say that the factories carried off the housewives from the nurseries and the kitchens and the children from their play. These women had nothing to cook with and to feed their children. These children were destitute and starving. Their only refuge was the factory." Don't deny the children their refuges! Factory worker at 7, manager at 14, owner at 21? Why not. | ::Mises [http://mises.org/humanaction/chap21sec7.asp writes], concerning the Industrial Revolution, "It is a distortion of facts to say that the factories carried off the housewives from the nurseries and the kitchens and the children from their play.

::Alexander the Great died at 33; to accomplish all that he accomplished in such a short life, he had to start young. One mustn't forcibly get in the way of the fulfillment of youthful ambition, or youthful fun. From elementary school through college, I was always eager to throw the books aside and jump into the work world, where I could work on stuff that mattered rather than imaginary, hypothetical problems. I think many others feel the same way.
