30+ Questions Asked That Make Us Nervous About Humanity

This article appeared in thedaddest.com and has been published here with permission.

Remember when we were in school, and our teachers would tell us that there are "no stupid questions?" Well, they were wrong. Sometimes, an inquiry should simply be left unasked, no matter how badly you may want to know the answer. For those who may disagree with our claim, take a look at these questions asked on social media and decide for yourselves…

We See Nothing Wrong

We see absolutely nothing wrong with this, especially given the fact that she's only 14 and some full-fledged adults still have stuffed animals. It'd be one thing if the OP's daughter was still playing pretend with the stuffed animals and believed that they were alive.

However, if she's just buying them because she thinks they're cute and she likes having something to hold at night, then she's maturing at a perfectly normal rate. Let's not make her grow up too fast.

The Evil Stepfather

Given that the OP's "stepson" is older than him, maybe the OP should be taking life advice from the 31-year-old, not the other way around. Furthermore, if the OP and this more mature woman are only dating, why's he referring to himself as the "stepfather" of his girlfriend's son?

We don't blame the son one bit for wanting nothing to do with this guy. This son is grown and doesn't need a father figure in the form of a child. Additionally, this whole relationship will probably last about five minutes.

We Were All Lied To

Wow, OP, it's almost as if there's life after high school! Seriously though, we were all lied to for so long that we can't 100% blame the OP for this ridiculous question. We've been led to believe that unless we get straight A's and a Master's degree, we won't ever get jobs.

While that used to be somewhat true, times have changed, and companies are now more focused on experience and abilities than formal education. So if you got straight D's in high school, there's hope for you yet!

Is This a Genuine Question?

Truthfully, this looks a lot more like a thinly-veiled flex than a genuine question. On the off-chance that this person is really asking, we'll try to answer. How much allowance is appropriate for a child is entirely dependent on the family's financial situation.

It also has to do with what they want to teach their kids about the value of money. Some children get no allowance at all and turn out great! Others get $1,000 a week and also turn out totally fine. It all depends on your specific kid.
