"It may seem to a non-parent that this is mean-spirited and bitter."

"And perhaps some of the entries are. But a lot of them are just honest and good-natured venting, and also pretty hilarious shots of what massive damage kids can cause."

Remember that behind ever "hilarious shot" is a parent who decided that the first thing to do is ? not to comfort, not to discipline, not to flush the Desitin out of their eyes ? but to reach for a camera and take some pictures.

Is "Shit My Kids Ruined" a bad website?
	Yes, because parents need to focus on being present in real life with their kids.
	Yes, because it exacerbates hostility toward children.
	No, because it can help a parent transcend anger by recognizing the humor and shared experience.
	No, because it's a good warning or dose of reality to people who haven't had children yet.
