This is a
phrase coined from the
Misanthropic Bitch web site at bitch.shutdown.com. It refers to the general societial
tendency to worship anything relating to
children. Members of the Cult of the Child say phrases like "What about the children?" and participate in things such as the
Million Mom March.
The rise of the Cult of the Child has led to things like Baby Gap and Kids R Us stores, lots of family friendly workplace policies but nothing for single folks, and minivans. You can find cult members residing in suburban and upscale areas of any given city.
