I’m going to raise my kids by (the following rules): If you have something nice to say, say it If you have something nice you can do, do it
Its not particularly difficult to parse and aside from some punctuation issues it sounds like this kid has their head screwed on right
heh… doodoo
This relies on knowledge of the common saying “If you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say anything at all”. If you’ve never encountered that saying, this post probably looks like word soup.
is it not word soup even knowing that saying?
My brain parsed it fine. Maybe I’ve spent too long online and I’ve adapted to the lack of punctuation.
you ain’t raising anyone with that shit punctuation

This reads fine? It could use some commas but otherwise makes sense

where would commas go to make it make sense? 🤔

Alright, it needs some other punctuation, too, but that’s not so bad.
I’m raising my kids by “if you have anything nice to say, say it” and “if you have anything nice you can do, do it”.
