JohnC Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 What in the world goes through the head of parents who saddle their children with crazy names and then act surprised when people react to their lunacy. It's not surprising that children have social and psychological problems when they are parented by crazy people. Naming your child Abcde is an act of weirdness that rises to the level of malicious child abuse. https://www.cnn.com/2018/11/30/us/abcde-southwest-apologizes-scli-intl/index.html 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disagree, they can succeed just as well as anyone with a sane and normal name. No one specified what that success would be in. I mean, you don't see very many Dr. Porche's out there.......

Can the kid treat it as a Scrabble kind of name and make whatever they want out of it? Two vowels helps! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ExiledInIllinois Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 And there is our problem in society: SouthWest Airlines The almighty corporate ***** for the almighty $$$$$. Society would square itself away if it wasn't for corporate whores worried about every penny. BTW... I am as crazy as a bat, but gave my two children non-pagen names. At least give them a fighting chance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnC Posted December 1, 2018 Author Share Posted December 1, 2018 Just think. if you name a boy Sue it doesn't seem as crazy. However, the parents would be required to teach their darling Sue how to fight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark80 Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 (edited) If any company had the guts to say "we aren't apologizing for this, it's ridiculous" they would have a lifetime customer in me. I'm so sick of all the PC / SJW B.S.. What do you expect when you name your child something so idiotic. "Hey, look at me, I am so unique and clever with how I named my child." Too bad I didn't consider the impact it could have on them in their lives. So selfish. Such an idiot. You get what you deserve.
