    There's something evil about how people try to recreate their bad relationship at work with their parents at home. It's that whole only dreams of the oppressed is to become the oppress thing and power dynamic recreation, but ti's also just disgusting and sick, how do people not wake up and see they are making love a paid commodity? Familial love, the kind which should always be flowing between members until one commits and evil act.

        it's disgusting that they hate them in a systemic way. I understands its because they've been programmed to always think in capitalist terms about wages and how everyone else is draining them, and the alienation and atomization, but it makes me sick to see it to this extreme, fighting what is the main part of whatever "human nature" exists, which is care for family.

        Do you seriously think the woman from the OP hates her children, because she pays them to put away their clothes and brush their teeth?

          Nah, it was her eyes that make me think she's a psycho.

          Besides, a lot of parents hate their children unadmitely, but no, I don't think this is the case.

              What's RBF?

              I mean, the "taxes/bills" she imposes on her children is pretty deranged/stupid. If it wasn't for that, if the brat really doesn't wanna help around the house, it's fine to pay them for it I guess.

              And when I saw her smiling stupidly totally proud of her idiotic "make my children pay bills" system, it gave me the feeling she hates her child. That's it, just a hunch.

      It's some kind of coping mechanism, I think, having experienced the same kind of attitude but not to the degree in the OP. It's like a "why do I have to be miserable, be forced to work this job and do this to take care of you but you don't have to it too?" kind of thing. Parents wanting to share misery because handling it all alone hurts too much. It gets rationalized as building character and work ethic, which just like super strict parenting, usually backfires. But the source is a desire to share your pain with others by inflicting it on them too. Or it's a jealously. You go through so much shit to keep your children comfortable and it's something you yourself can't have. You have to take the burden of responsibility and labor for them. The solution being that we as a society need to unburden parents.

        this feels right. on top of that, i think people who become parents at a young age (like the ones who think they should be making tiktok videos even though they have 7 year old kids - get off that shit, mom, you're old) haven't always developed an understanding of the world, so they just continue shit they see happening around them without critically analyzing it. like, a kid should brush his teeth because it's the right thing to do, not cuz you get paid (or lose money) if you don't. intrinsic rewards >
