    I was once an Italian kid. My parents would have beat me if I pronounced spaghetti wrong.

    So no. They don’t.

      And if they do, they won’t be able to tell you after

      Kids are about the only thing Italians can beat in a fight.

      Amirite?

      Ah yes, threats of abuse, famous for always having the outcome they intend

      [edit: especially when dealing with children who are still developing their ability to speak and comprehend speech]

        It was a critique of being raised by Italian parents in the 80s/90s. Please be aware that I made a joke

          It was good. I enjoyed it. Not everything needs to trigger some morally righteous response in our world.
