this is a case of a boomer calling their grown child a kid

now that that's cleared up, you decide whether it belongs in that sub

2

u/KaydeanRavenwood Oct 05 '24

My "son" will always BE my "son". He can't erase memories after growing up. He is STILL my son.

2

u/Impossible_Arrival21 Oct 05 '24

yes, but is he a "kid"?

1

u/KaydeanRavenwood Oct 05 '24

Where does that matter in the OP's post? I see it in the share. But, not on OP. I'm afraid I might not know the context.🤔 Oh well.

3

u/Defiant-Elk5206 Oct 06 '24

The debate is over whether an adult son can be called a kid

2

u/KaydeanRavenwood Oct 06 '24

I'm my Mom's Kid. My son is my kid. It doesn't matter in the eye of the parent. Trust.

1

u/Defiant-Elk5206 Oct 06 '24

I get that, it’s not weird to call your adult child your kid but that’s not the point of r/kidsarefuckingstupid

2

u/KaydeanRavenwood Oct 06 '24

I am aware, but nah. He stupid.

1

u/Defiant-Elk5206 Oct 06 '24

Nobody said he wasn’t lol

2

u/KaydeanRavenwood Oct 06 '24

🤣 this was hilarious. Thank you.

u/WigglesPhoenix Oct 06 '24

The sub. Kids are fucking stupid. The place where it’s posted.

Lmao this post has really brought out the illiteracy in everyone

1

u/KaydeanRavenwood Oct 06 '24

So, if I am someone's son... Doesn't that mean I'm their kid?

1

u/oaayaou1 Oct 06 '24

Are you seriously trying to say that everyone is a kid (young person) because everyone is someone's kid (offspring)?

1

u/graciesues06 Oct 07 '24

i think it works. son may be an adult but he’s still op’s KID. hence he thinks his kid is fucking stupid. (he is)

u/Keanu7Reeves Oct 05 '24

their son is not a kid

u/Zr0bert Oct 05 '24

... OP is right ? It's OOP's kid but not a kid. Do you know many kids who live with their SO ?

4

u/KiraLight3719 Oct 05 '24

I'm still lost coz my mind ignored the word which it doesn't know the meaning of like 2-3 times before I actually saw that word! But now I'm confused what does it mean? Is it just misspelt "son"? I saw the OOP referring to them by them but well I thought their son apparantly went by those pronouns! It's really confusing nowadays!

4

u/Hulkaiden Oct 05 '24

It stands for 'significant other'

3

u/KiraLight3719 Oct 05 '24

Ah never have seen that one used as abbreviation! I have mostly seen the use of the word "spouse" which is also gender neutral

2

u/YellowNecessary Oct 05 '24

Yeah It took me a while to know what SO meant

1

u/Positive_Incident_77 Oct 05 '24

Spouse implies marriage. They were probably just dating

1

u/0_69314718056 Oct 09 '24

How did you write a paragraph about not knowing what a word means without mentioning the word that confused you 😂 glad it got sorted out but this was a funny read

1

u/KiraLight3719 Oct 09 '24

Didn't realise that lol although the comment before me weighed on the "so" and I also mentioned it supposedly being misspelt of "son" so I guess everyone figured out

u/Classic_Volume_7574 Oct 05 '24

Son: your male progeny of any age

Kid: Someone that is not an adult

OP, OOP is referring to their ADULT son, not their kid son

0

u/SeaweedOwn7904 Oct 09 '24

Kid: a young person ——often used as a generalized reference to one especially younger or less experienced Their adult son, is still their kid

6

u/FerociousViper22 Oct 05 '24

Yeah /this/ OP (you) didnt read the text. The kidsarestupid OP mentions their kid has a Significant Other. They are an adult

17

u/Worldly_Original8101 Oct 05 '24

They’re right? Where’s the kid in there

5

u/Augustus420 Oct 05 '24

Why are people so averse to actually reading?

6

u/CaptainKenway1693 Oct 05 '24

The "kid" is an adult.

1

u/Augustus420 Oct 05 '24

And OP is the parent.

6

u/CaptainKenway1693 Oct 05 '24

I'm aware. The complaint that others are making is that the OOP's child is an adult, thus not a kid. They are OOP's kid, but not a kid. You can argue about whether that fits the sub or not, but they are arguing that it does not.

0

u/SeaweedOwn7904 Oct 09 '24

My evidence that it fits is a dictionary: kid is :often used as a generalized reference to one especially younger or less experienced” (Merriam-Webster) OOPs kid is still a kid since they’re a younger, less experienced person who did something stupid

1

u/glitterfaust Oct 09 '24

The sub rules states that once one is a teenager, they no longer belong on the sub.

1

u/SeaweedOwn7904 Oct 10 '24

It never states “once one is a teenage they no longer become on the sub” it only states that teenage kids aren’t allowed, nothing about adult kids, therefore it doesn’t break the rules

1

u/glitterfaust Oct 10 '24

You’re not good at comprehension are you lol

Why would an adult count and not a teen

1

u/SeaweedOwn7904 Oct 10 '24

You’re not good at comprehending a joke are you And it’s simply following rules to a tee, posting about an adult kid isn’t against the rules 🤭

2

u/no_________________e Oct 05 '24

We are jjk fans, cuz we can’t fucking read

3

u/younoknw Oct 05 '24

No, dont worry, hes a kid, only a few hundred months!

5

u/KrillingIt Oct 05 '24

They were right, their grown ass son isn’t a kid. r/lostlostlostredditors

2

u/MrTheWaffleKing Oct 06 '24

I’d wager he’s right. He didn’t post the cat as a kid, posted adults as if they were kids

2

u/Mountain-Hold-8331 Oct 05 '24

Nope just this OP is lost/illiterate.

2

u/Hulkaiden Oct 05 '24

How in the world did this post get this many upvotes and the OOP got removed. OOP was right

1

u/Resiliense2022 Oct 09 '24

Is there r/lostlostlostredditors or are we at the point of no return

1

u/Analog_Jack Oct 09 '24

OP can't read it would seem.

1

u/SeaweedOwn7904 Oct 09 '24

people saying “oh the kids not a kid since they’re an adult” I’m still my parents kid, and the dictionary would still count this since kid is “often used as a generalized reference to one especially younger or less experienced”, KAFS OP is not a lost Redditor, LR OP is a moron, OP was correct

1

u/glitterfaust Oct 09 '24

No. The subreddit is for children. The subreddit even states once one is a teenager, they no longer qualify to be posted on the subreddit.

1

u/SeaweedOwn7904 Oct 10 '24

It specifically states kid(not teen) this kid is not a teen, therefore it fits
