      part of the conservative ideology is that children are property and should be molested, not heard.

      In ancent rome there was a law,that went something like “you cannot sell your son into slavery a third time”. Americans would see that as a violation of parental rights

        Third? The fuck did someone do to cause that?! Was there some dude who sold his son into slavery and then said son got out of slavery at least three times so the Romans had to pass a law to keep that from happening again? Why do I get the feeling Crassus was involved.
