fans are probably too late to save,” said Child Services Director Madeline Marsh. “But that is no reason to allow them to pass their inherited trauma on to the next generation.”

“The suffering has to end.”

“We don’t want to go that far. If you don’t want your kid to cheer for a different team that’s fine. Just make them a fan! Thats nice and simple and they won’t grow up to resent you for anything.”
