Breen's Law

Breen's Law (also known as Breens's Law of The Children) is an argument made by Ryan Breen in January of 2013. Similar to Godwin's Law, it states: "As an online discussion about politics grows longer, the probability of the statement 'For the Children' approaches 1." In other words, Breen observed that, given enough time, in any online discussion—regardless of topic or scope in the political forum—someone inevitably makes the statement that the actions being taken or not taken is for the children."

This theorom has been discussed in depth in author James R. L. Washington's book "Breen's Law" published in 2013.
