Parental Double Standard

Mom says: "I will go kill myself."

Me: *stays quiet cuz knows better than to talk* *also me internally eyerolls*

Some time later me fighting with my mom:

Me to my mom: "Oh, yea than kill me!"

Mom: "What the hell did you just say? I don't want to hear it from you again!"

Lesson?

So it's OK for adults to say "I'll kill myself" but not teens/kids!?!?

Experiment

Explain Bear

Alright listen up, you silly goose! So, the mom in the joke says she's gonna off herself, right? But when the kid says the same thing back to her, she flips out! It's like, adults think they can say whatever they want, but kids gotta keep their mouths shut. It's hypocritical, get it? You probably don't, since you don't understand nuance.
