Last Night I Had A Dream That I Was At A Family Gathering And For Some Reason Elon Musk Showed Up And

Last night I had a dream that I was at a family gathering and for some reason Elon Musk showed up and someone asked him to choose the music to play and I was so offended, I woke up

I find it so interesting the way people are so different

Like I just read a post where a mother was having a hard conversation with her son in the car and she said having hard conversations in the car is great because you're in close proximity and can't really leave but don't have to look at each other (and yes she asked her kid if he wanted to have the conversation before jumping in and the conversation went really well)

Now, I personally love this idea. I think it works and I have had many hard conversations with my parents in the car and I find it easier to talk in the car, and it seemed about half the people in the comments agreed with me and her parenting style.

But, half of the comments disagreed. Some harder than others. One person had the tone of "I can't BELIEVE someone thinks this is good parenting!!! I would NEVER do this with my child!!! How DARE YOU!!" and to be frank I don't get it. I don't get why people don't like this way of parenting

But I also do get it. I get that some people might have had bad times in these circumstances or their parents tried to do this but didn't give the kid a choice or were forceful about it. Then I get why you wouldn't like it.

But th main thing I don't get is when people don't get that people are different. Like the person mentioned before was so forceful about this being bad parenting and such but maybe that's what works for them. The same things that work for me might not work for you but you can't just push all of your beliefs on everyone who believes something different than you or had different experiences than you did.

I had this hilarious image pop in my head:

Severus Snape making the 6th year's that are learning to cast silently to hold harmonicas and kazzoos in their mouths so he knows if they talk it

Why are people so worried about what their art looks like? It's art! It's supposed to be fun!

Who cares if the subject is a little off center or your lines aren't straight or you didn't mix that perfect shade of mint green?! It's still art!

You made that! With just your hands and a couple of tools! Look at you! You did something!

Even if you just throw paint on a canvas or write a sentence you made art! Someone out there is going to look at it and it's "imperfections" and ador it because of that!

That's why I love art. It doesn't have to be perfect.

Listen- sometimes I need specific step-by-step instructions an other times I need you to shut up and let me exist

Like if you tell me to clean my room or the house I need you to tell me what, where, and how.

But if you EVER tell me exactly what, how, and with what I should make art with, I will gut you and turn your entrails (intrails?) into a masterpiece and donate it to the local art museum
