No one should be offended...ever!

So it seems that we're living in a society where no one should be offended by anything anymore. Yes, everyone is forced to be politically correct about everything, lest someone gets offended. Why is that? What is wrong with us? Of course someone is always going to find something offensive no matter what anyone does.

I bring this up because the other day, I read an article about how a mom sued a school district because of a father-daughter dance. You see, the particular school that her daughter attended had a long standing tradition of having an annual father-daughter dance as well as a mother-son baseball game. Well, since the woman is a single mother, her daughter did not have a dad to take her to the dance. Therefore, her daughter was unable to attend.

I just don't understand. If her daughter doesn't have a dad, why doesn't she take an uncle or brother or something? Or just not go. But don't ruin it for everyone else. There were times in school when I was unable to attend a school event for one reason or another. It didn't bother me that I could not go.

What are we gonna do next? Get rid of proms because there may be people who are too poor and cannot afford to go? Oh, I know! We should ban dances all together because there are people who are rhythmically challenged and cannot dance. We don't want them to be left out! It's not fair that women cannot play in the NFL. I demand it gone!

Why do we have to ruin it for everyone just because a few entitled individuals complain? Why must we try so hard to include everyone in all things? It's already bad enough that we tell kids that everyone is a winner to make them feel better about themselves. Sorry to tell you this kids, but it's not true. In this world, there are winners and losers and it's wrong for your parents to lie to you like that. Instead of lying to kids, we should tell them that anyone can be a winner as long as they work hard enough. And in order to stay a winner, you must continue to work hard to stay on top. This way, we don't raise a nation of lazy individuals who feel entitled.

I'm tired of all this political correctness. It seems like people are getting more and more sensitive about everything. We are slowly becoming a nation of wussies.

I think it's about time that everyone just chilled out and not take life so seriously. In life, there will always be someone that will be excluded from something. Sorry to say this but it's true. It's impossible to please everyone. So quit complaining and suck it up!
