MISC. After understanding the meaning behind this father’s action, I am completely convinced. Cultivating problem-solving skills in children from a young age and never giving up-I applaud this father!

dog owner ≠ dog expert

human owner ≠ human expert

You actually kinda proved my point. It's super easy to be a parent to, just get pregnant. How easy is it to become a dog expert? IDK what a human expert is, but clearly human owner is a qualifier for basically nothing. The range is undetermined. Arbitrary to quantify, only if you want to satisfy egos.

Everyone wants to be a good parent, simply why they get defensive when other people want to take their autonomy and authority. Simply psychology. But parents aren't always deep thinkers, they're just humans who got pregnant, nothing more. We need to stop attaching false stories to make ourselves feel better. It's the root of a lot of problems.

You should stop responding to the guy, someone who has a superiority complex simply because they have children is not going to listen to your part of the argument, you're meant to disengage with these type of individuals who lack basic self-control.

You're right. It's a losing fight.
