Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

That's a stretch, imo. I've never seen anyone put a conscious effort into verbally emphasizing the less important parts of a sentence to their kids or anyone else. Those poor kids don't deserve that, just like babies don't deserve having their verbalization skills stunted by baby talk.
You’ve never heard anyone try to comfort a kid like that? I mean, maybe your argument against doing it is valid, but that doesn’t mean it’s not super common.
