Upvote this so more people can see the ridiculousness of some parents.

From the Youtube description (written by the mother):

>Video of Michele Bachmann trying to get her photo op in with my 8 year old son

No. You came to her to what is obviously a book signing. Bachmann is at a table. There are copies of her books behind her. It's clearly a book signing. You were clearly approaching her under the guise of getting a photo or an autograph. Saying she was trying to get a photo with your son is a LIE. You are a liar.

>It's hard to hear but he leans in

Unbelievable. YOUR OWN VIDEO SHOWS BACHMANN LEANING OVER THE ENTIRE TABLE TO LISTEN TO YOUR CHILD!

>and tells her that his mom is gay and she doesn't need fixing. GO ELIJAH!

Your son clearly felt uncomfortable repeating the line you told him to say. That's why he was barely audible. That fact that you don't seem to recognize this (and even encourage him) says a lot about your parenting ability.

And, yes, I'm questioning your ability to be a good mother. You're really congratulating him ("GO ELIJAH!") at blindly repeating what you told him to say? That's pathetic. That's not any better than those stupid, stupid participation trophies they give for 20th place.

>Love that look of shock she gets.

It wasn't a look of shock. It was her realizing that this poor kid was being used by his mom. Bachmann gave you a pretty icy look at the end. What did you expect her to do? Have a debate with your son clarifying her position on gay marriage? Did you expect her to go off on you in front of her son? No. She politely waved good-bye to your child and moved on.

Parents like this need to grow up. If your principles and beliefs are truly correct and good, you shouldn't need a child to make a point. The point should stand on its own.
