When it comes to parenting and children, positive opinions are rarely heard.
> only angry and negative voice their opinions
i.e. bad people
> positively minded
i.e. good people
I know you probably didn't think about it that much. Personally, I could start a rant about toxic culture now, but I'll leave it at that.
If you don't want to create an aggressive response, maybe refrain from calling people that disagree with you angry and negative.
EDIT: here's a suggestion for a good way to phrase the actual meaning you might have been thinking about:
People that are happy about the way something is, are less likely to complain about it. Yes, true, but that by itself doesn't make the thing either good or bad.
And no, positively minded people are not necessary good people. That is absurd claim.
"People that are happy about the way something is, are less likely to complain about it."
I did not made that claim nor wanted to. Which is why II contrasted it with other topics, so that it is clearer that parenting is treated differently.
Lastly, your comment seems to be the only negative reaction. As of now, there is not even comment disagreeing with me (which would be different then negative of course).
"People that are happy about the way something is, are less likely to complain about it."
This isn't even what OP was arguing. It's more along the line of "People that are happy are less likely to voice that satisfaction than people that are unhappy are likely to voice their dissatisfaction".
It's not exactly strange for "X time allocation has doubled" and "X time allocation has halved" to both be bad.
If we back off the argument to looking at smaller changes, and truly looking at whether less or more is better... I'm not sure if parenting is special here. Maybe it's just that it's really easy to think of examples where people do too much, and examples where people do too little. So a change in either direction is a bad thing for those people, especially if they're more prone to follow along the way they were already going.
The fact that negative content commonly reaches the top is just a side effect of the voting system, which reflects human psychology.
As an aside, I think the rise of subreddits like r/wholesomememes and other purely positive subreddits on r/all was done intentionally to counter the rampant negativity on Reddit. I think it's great. I wonder what kind of cultural guidance systems the mods on this site have in place.
