questions concerning parenting? I don't mean the ones who have serious, thought out answers but the ones where they state "not like I'd really know, I don't have kids."

Oh I know.... haha that is too funny. People without kids have all the right answers... One of my sisters, at one time, had all the right answers and and kept telling us (my other brothers and sisters and myself), all the things we should do, and things we were doing wrong. Actually it is comical. She just had her first child 2 years ago, and we were at a family gathering last month, and she was talking about a problem she had with her daughter.. and I said to her "well you had all the right answers when our kids were toddlers" haha.. She got pissed, but everybody else in the family burst out laughing. Ignore those.. they have no clue about raising kids. And under no circumstance do I ever listen to them. And really I have no clue as to why they think they should answer questions like that, nor give advice here or within their family. And for the record, I never listen to child psychologist reports or anything like that if they do not have kids of their own. And.. nieces and nephews or friends with kids... they do not count.. because they are not your responsibility. Nieces and nephews go home, you only spend a minimal amount of time with them.

You really don't have to be a parent to answer questions. Just like you don't have to have pets or be in a relationship to answer some of those questions. Some people work in daycares, or have nieces and nephews they are raising. Some people had to raise their younger siblings, because their parents were killed at such a young age. You never know. So, you should keep your mouth shut.
This is a public question and answering thing. Everyone is allowed to answer whatever they want. Whether they are just in it for the two points, or to put their opinions in. You know? It's not illegal for anyone to have an opinion.

just because they don't have kids, doesn't mean they don't have neices and nephews and much younger brothers and sisters, i've been around many small children, yet i personally have none. And i can see where the parents are going wrong on certain things, and i have proven my point in these areas. And just because someone doesn't have children doesn't mean they were born yesterday, some things are just common sense. anyways, we all were kids once.and we can look back to those days and those experiences too.

I used to be a childcare provider and thought I knew it all! But, let me tell you it is 100% different when it's your child!!! People just won't understand until they have kids of their own! :)

So they can get 2 points! They do not care about the question.

Cause before you have children you think you know EVERYTHING about having children. Remember when you saw the terrible 8 year old having a fit in Wal Mart and you were with your adorable baby... and you looked down at him/her with adoring eyes and said... My Child will NEVER do that. Then 6 years later yours DOES. hahahaha yeah.

They are there for the points and it is annoying. Report them, they are not actually answering the question.
