Study shows republicans are better parents

Nope. Not even close.

But are they better at creating threads?

I’ll report back with my findings.

I prefer, “Children of Republican parents desperately flee to Democratic friends homes for escape!”

I’d say people who lean right are better at discipline. Which is an important part of a raising a kid.

I think people who lean left are more nurturing. Which is also an important part of raising a child.

People who have mixed political beliefs are probably the best at it because you’re better at mixing nurturing with discipline.

Gotta love that click-bate headline!

Anyways, categorizing 10 year olds as democrat- or republican-leaning seems dubious to me. But y’all have at it.

Next thing you know your ten year old is a full blown Maoist and building his power base among his fellow elementary schoolers.

C’mon Eagle.

You’ve been a teacher right?

Kids are pretty good at deciding which homes are good and welcoming for visits, wouldn’t you say?

What percentage of libs in Congress under 50 and libs in media, Hollywood, entertainment, etc., have their own children?

Most of them?

Who would be in charge of coming up with that ‘percentage’?

Probably the same Venn diagram of kids whose parents tell em to stay away from houses where the keep loaded guns out.

This is kind of a wild thing to say with no evidence. I do appreciate the confidence though.

Hmmmmm

Weil, whom you’ll recognize from her tremendous tax and data stories for The Washington Post, clarified further: “Do Republicans have more kids than Democrats? It doesn’t seem obvious to me that it would be true.”
The simple answer, however? Yes! About 38 percent of Democrats had never had children as of 2022, compared with 26 percent of Republicans, according to the universally beloved General Social Survey from the universally beloved NORC at the University of Chicago.

Not quite at vast majority levels from this source.

Because people in “media, Hollywood, entertainment, etc.” are just like the rest of us?

Thanks. Even still. There’s a difference between “not wanting to have children” and “never had children”.

Of course not, they’re better than us.
