I’m pretty sure Randy Marsh alone could fill this entire list

[@RapFanatic4ever]

Randy is a legend

[@BigFella117]

@@RapFanatic4ever oh I agree, but you can’t deny some of the things he’s done are really stupid

[@smilinmadman]

From using South parks only internet to starting Covid. Randy did it all lmao

[@derrickhaggard]

And the thing about Randy at the Little League games he really didn't come to be your typical Little League dad he only goes to the boys Little League games to get drunk and start fights with the other dads which results in him getting rightfully arrested and then he goes on a drunken tirade about how his rights to be specific his "right to stand up for himself" is being unfairly infringed upon and then usually finishes said drunken tirade by stating in a drunken stupor "I thought this was America, I thought this was America."

3:30. Until 1995, this was actually very common. Adults would actually do "Pox Parties" where all the neighborhood kids would get exposed and infected with chicken pox from an infected kid. Since there's now a chicken pox vaccine, they're less common now.

[@frankbrodie5168]

Yeah you saved me posting the same thing. In the 1970's parents definitely weren't concerned with kids catching chicken pox. Ironically I couldn't catch a cold if I French kissed someone with a cold. I'm 58 now and have never had chicken pox or measles.

[@Chaos89P]

Other disease parties have cropped up in anti-vax "communities."

[@ryuiichikune6250]

My parents did this with me and my sister. And we never had any repercussions

[@kimberlybellard6972]

That’s basically what happened when the first vaccines were created. There were some milkmaids who contracted cowpox, which is in the same virus family as smallpox, and a guy realized that since they had cowpox they were already immune to smallpox. So he started giving other people the cowpox virus on purpose to fight off the smallpox virus

Honorable Mentions: *Slingshoting themselves at a networking building in protest. *Betting and losing all the money they won to buy back the town. *Being hypocrites with Terrence and Phillip's humor -In the episode "Death," the parents of South Park detest the juvenile humor of Terrence and Phillip when in that same episode they're laughing at the SAME KIND OF BOWEL HUMOR when someone has to use a Porta-potty! This is also present in the movie where they are against their children using profanity despite in an earlier scene, Liane can be heard saying a swear word right in front of the boys when they are sent to Mr. Mackey's office. *Their poor job at teaching the kids sex-ed. *Gerald causing a gender divide at South Park Elementary via his troll alter-ego. -Easily the worst thing Gerald has ever done *Saying "shit" so much, they unleash a dragon. *Removing everything important about Christmas in their very first Christmas special. *Assuming the missing corpse of Kyles Grandma was raped and blaming Korn for ghost pirates attacking the Halloween festival. -We later discover the whole thing was a set-up by Father Maxi to condemn Korn and Halloween for being unholy *Attempting to overtake the White House in a war re-enactment. *Believing a goat is Stevie Nicks. *Randy's multiple publicity stunts for Tegridy Farms. *Refusing to accept that Stan and Cartman broke the largest beaver dam and instead blame other sources. -Stan and Cartman even said that they were the ones that broke the dam. *Failing to notice the missing top part of Britney Spears head after a suicide attempt. *Randy Causes The Pandemic

[@Chaos89P]

With the last one, I think they knew, they just didn't care because she wasn't "properly sacrificed" yet. Had something to do with bountiful harvests and ancient paganistic practices being "modernized."

[@vamsm]

Taking over the White House was Cartman’s idea in order to win a bet from Stan and Kyle. The adults there were drunk anyway.

[@eternus154]

I’m surprised “My Future Self & Me” didn’t make the list. After finding out their future selves are fakers, Butters hired Cartman to get revenge on his parents. Randy & Sharon continued the lie as Stan caught on to their BS, even going as far as chopping off “Future Stan’s” hand when Stan cut off a fake hand. 😂

[@tylerriley2587]

I know butter’s parents fessed up the truth in the end and Stan knew what was up and what randy and Sharon were doing and he wanted them to fess up but they just continued to lie to him

[@justapeacefulmanwhosbornin7291]

I love Randy Marsh. Reckless, dumb but hilarious.

[@brokensoul8390]

With all the downright dumb and gross things that Randy has done, it's almost as if Trey & Matt are actually TRYING to make him the flagship character instead of Cartman

They are getting on in years. In the late '90s their stories centred on the four boys, but as time went on the stories started to focus on the adult characters, particularly Randy.

“Douche and Turd” is the most controversial and one of the worst South Park episodes ever. Stan did not deserve to be banished from town just for not voting. He was spat on by the townspeople, including his best friend, Kyle, his brown coat was torn off, he was tied up onto a horse, bound with a bucket on his head and sent away, then he got shot in the arm before returning home to South Park and voting with everybody not caring about his condition except his vote. This episode has effected me for 2 years now.

This maybe about ALL of the parents doing very stupid things , but its obvious that Randy completely dominates this list,

[@williamfincher2260]

A lot of those things can be avoided by taking the time to actually be parents, thinking for themselves, and actually listening to their kids when they have a problem. Butters's parents and the therapist never asked Butters if he was playing pretend or if he knew what was happening when he was blindfolded. They also never consider the possibility of Butters not intentionally trying to cause trouble or inconvenience them. A lot of the parents sometimes forget that their kids are kids; especially in Butters's case. When Randy discovers what Butters's Creamy Goo is, his parents just assume he is trying to be sarcastic, but he doesn't even know what sarcasm is, or what he was selling.

I totally agree blaming Canada should be number one. Rather than taking responsibility for their children’s actions, they would rather blame it on the country who made the film.

As a middle school cafeteria worker, I’ve seen, and inadvertently overheard, similar incidents of parents refusing to take responsibility for their children’s actions way too many times
