Can we all agree that without context its hard to judge whether a disciplinary action is reasonable or not?
these are probably trolls. At one point quora had a "partner program" where people would get paid to post questions, but only if the questions got enough engagement. The question generators realized that coming up with interesting questions was kind of hard, so they just started pouring out ragebait.
If it's too obvious people may realize it's a troll, so the ideal way to do it is phrase it in a vague way that leaves a lot to the imagination (here for example people can easily make the assumption that you're an idiotic and boneheaded parent)
Where's the fun in that?
