Mutual respect: Why respect is earned in parenting

Many parents feel entitled to respect from children. This is a common attitude towards children on the part of parents. However, the fact of the matter is that respect in biblical times was a thing in children, but only in the form of closeness to parents.

The acronym of mutual respect is denoted as part of the Christian doctrine of mutual submission, with the burden of proof falling squarely on the part of parents. See Colossians 3:20-21 KJV:

Children, obey your parents in all things: for this is well pleasing unto the Lord. Fathers, provoke not your children to anger, lest they be discouraged.

The Greek root word translated "obey" is υπακουο (Latin: hupakouo) and refers here to secure, vulnerable rest in the love and submission of parent. This word ultimately refers to a secure attachment between parent and child in the family home. This secure attachment comes from parent submission, where children are to submit to their children, giving to children without receiving, from beneath yet from above, expecting absolutely nothing in return. See also Matt. 22:35-40, 25:31-46

The Greek root word translated "provoke...to anger" is ερεθιζο (Latin: erethizo) and refers to damages or offenses, namely the slightest of personal offense perceived by a child, including, but not limited to, the slightest of offensive touch or speech perceived by a child, stemming from entitlement. This commandment was intended by the Apostle Paul, and was understood in its original context, as a moral statute prohibiting all forms of punitive parenting, including, but not limited to, any punishments, reprimands, or other controlling demeanor towards children. In the Old Testament, punitive parents were put to death by way of bloodletting, after punishing their children one last time. The parents who punished their children were charged with kidnapping, with "kidnapping" being defined under the Law as the slightest of damages or offenses stemming from hostage-taking - child punishment was seen as holding your child hostage merely for things that they did wrong, thereby treating your child as a quartered slave. Paul here was lifting up the Law in order to convict a group of Greek Christian parents who brought their pagan custom of spanking and punishing children into the church. Paul, contrary to popular legend, was anti-spanking, and opposed any and all punishment of a child in his secular writings. Paul may not have gotten along with the women of the church, but he sure loved children, and even took in a few orphaned children during his time as a deacon.

Respect for parents was a thing in biblical times. However, this respect for parents in the Bible, as understood when using the context as a guidepost, came in the form of closeness to parents, as opposed to fear of parents. For the first 6 years of childhood, children were in constant closeness to mothers, meaning that wherever mothers went, so did her child. For the first 2 years of childhood, children were constantly held by mothers, either in her loving arms, or on mom's back in a papoose bag when her hands are full. Between aged 2-6, children ranged next to mothers, following mom from room to room, not allowing mom out of their line of sight, morbidly fearing that mom would "go away and never come back". Whenever children cried, mothers cooed at the child before picking them up, and from there, mom diagnosed the need and then met it. Maybe the child was tired. Maybe the child was hungry. Maybe the child needed mom's milk. Maybe the child needed mom, period. When children under age 6 were out and about in public, mom wrapped up the child next to her bosom in swaddling blankets, with the swaddling blankets - and the child with them - being tucked underneath the loose-fitting, revealing dress that resembled an apron. Come nightfall, children co-slept next to mom in skin-on-skin format, with this co-sleeping warmth happening every night, until the onset of puberty, which was when children usually wanted their own place to sleep. Children went naked wherever they went, with mothers also going naked within the confines of the family home. This birth nudity setup helped facilitate easy skin-on-skin contact, with skin-on-skin warmth happening every time a child was even picked up.

Children growing up in the Early Church did respect their parents, but not like you might think. Children then were cooperative with their parents in most cases, but in an affectionate way. Children were in constant closeness to parents in biblical times, in a playful and connected way, with children attached at the hip in relation to mothers. Mothers were the primary caregivers of children, with children relating to fathers as a secondary attachment. Children never feared parents in biblical times, and ran to mom especially when they got in trouble.

Parents are not deserving of respect from children just for existing. Instead, parents have to earn their child's respect, as opposed to respect coming for free from children. Parents are non-deserving of any respect from a child. Not even cooperation. Not even affection. Nothing. Nada. Zilch. The way to earn respect from a child is attachment parenting.

The depraved and entitled parents who provoke their children to anger through punitive parenting will not inherit the Kingdom of God! Let them be cast forever into the lake of fire and burning sulfur, which is the second death prepared for Satan and his accomplices! Let them descend into the abyss which is the ever-burning Hell of fire and torment, suffering God's Wrath day and night forever and ever! Repent, for the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!

Righteous pampering: Why God wants you to pamper and baby your children

Many parents think that children should not be pampered. The argument is that if you pamper your child, you end up spoiling them. This is a common fear amongst American parents. However, children in biblical times were pampered and babied. The fact of the matter is that you as a parent should pamper and baby your child. 

The acronym of righteous pampering denotes part of the Christian doctrine of mutual submission, with the burden of proof falling squarely onto parents. See Colossians 3:20-21 KJV:

Children, obey your parents in all things: for this is well pleasing unto the Lord. Fathers, provoke not your children to anger, lest they be discouraged.

See also Matt. 22:35-40, 25:31-46.

Righteous pampering isn't pampering or babying your child any old way. When using the context as a guidepost, there is only one way to pamper a child. For the first 6 years of childhood, children were in constant closeness to mothers, meaning that wherever mothers went, so did her child. For the first 2 years of childhood, children were constantly held, either in mom's loving arms, or else on mom's back in a papoose bag when her hands were full. Between ages 2-6, children ranged next to mothers, following her from room to room, not allowing mom out of their line of sight, with children morbidly fearing that mom would "go away and never come back". Whenever children cried, mothers rushed in, cooing at their children before picking them up, and from there, the mother diagnosed the need, and then met that need. Maybe the child was tired. Maybe the child was hungry. Maybe the child needed mom's milk. Maybe the child needed mom, period. When children under age 6 were out and about in public with mothers, mom wrapped up the child in swaddling blankets, with the swaddling blankets - and the child with them - being tucked underneath the loose-fitting, revealing dress worn by mothers that resembled an apron. Come nightfall, children co-slept next to mothers in skin-on-skin format, with this co-sleeping setup happening every night, until the onset of puberty, which is when most children wanted their own place to sleep. Children growing up in the Early Church went naked wherever they went, with mothers also going naked within the confines of the family home, with this birth nudity setup helping to facilitate easy skin-on-skin contact even when the child was merely picked up.

Past age 6, children played freely outside, naked. Children past age 6 engaged in wet and messy play, venturing farther and farther from home, with children exploring the terrain, coming home in a mess. However, children had to check in with mom first, and tell her where they were going. Come evening, children were called by name - one by one - with children being treated to a warm homecooked meal on a porcelain plate. Children then washed up before jumping into the family bed with mom and dad, recharging for another day's play.

Children under age 6 were very much protected, in a sheltered way. Children under age 6 only left the house while tied to the bosom of mothers in swaddling blankets. The reason for this was that children under age 6 did not appreciate the dangers that existed outside of the family home, with these dangers including things such as venomous snakes and scorpions, with there being no antivenom for the children then. Today, there exist dangers for children when outside, namely busy streets and would-be kidnappers. Most of the time, children that young stayed home, and only left the house when swaddled next to the bosom of mothers.

The depraved and entitled parents who provoke their children to anger through punitive parenting will not inherit the Kingdom of God! Let them be cast forever into the lake of fire and burning sulfur, which is the second death prepared for Satan and his accomplices! Let them descend into the abyss which is the ever-burning Hell of fire and torment, suffering God's Wrath day and night forever and ever! Repent, for the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!

Expanding child abuse definitions: Why the Bible calls for more laws protecting children from abuse

Many parents think that the Bible is silent on issues relating to child abuse. This is a common belief amongst American parents. Most American parents follow the secular law in abusing children, with most parents abusing their children. However, God's Law is not silent on child abuse. All forms of punitive parenting are banned in the Bible.

The Greek root word denoting parental entitlement is πλεονέκτης (Latin: pleonektés) and is defined as, officially speaking, wanting things from children, to the point of imposition. Unofficially speaking, parental entitlement is a parent or parent in loco parents being sorely disappointed when children don't give them what they feel that they deserve. Parents are deserving of absolutely nothing from children just for existing. All parents in biblical times were seen as parent entitled when they as much as got angry towards a child. When this sense of entitlement was perceived as offensive or damaging by a child, it was deemed child abuse. See also Colossians 3:21 KJV:

Fathers, provoke not your children to anger, lest they be discouraged.

The Greek root word translated "provoke...to anger" is ερεθιζο (Latin: erethizo) and refers to damages or offenses, namely the slightest of personal offense perceived by a child, including, but not limited to, the slightest of offensive touch or speech perceived by a child, stemming from entitlement. This commandment was intended by the Apostle Paul, and was understood in its original context, as a moral statute prohibiting all forms of punitive parenting, including, but not limited to, any punishments, reprimands, or other controlling demeanor towards children. In the Old Testament, punitive parents were put to death by way of bloodletting, after punishing their children one last time. The parents who punished their children were charged with kidnapping, with "kidnapping" being defined under the Law as the slightest of damages or offenses stemming from hostage-taking - child punishment was seen in biblical times as holding your child hostage merely for things that they did wrong, thereby treating your child as a quartered slave. Paul here was lifting up the Law in order to convict a group of Greek\Christian parents who brought their pagan custom of spanking and punishing children into the church. Paul, contrary to popular legend, was anti-spanking, and even took in a few orphaned children during his time as a deacon.

Parent anger, in most cases, was seen by parents as something to shield a child from. Lashing out at children was seen as akin to a viper striking out at a child. Most parenting in the Early Church was motivated not by anger, but by worry or concern for the child.

The Bible is an anti-spanking document. The writers of all 88 books of the Bible advised parents towards attachment-based solutions in their secular writings, as opposed to punitive measures. Even King Solomon advised parents against punitive measures towards minor children, with the rod verses instead referring to the 40 minus 1 lashes meted out as a sentence for crime (with minor children never being whipped). For the first 6 years, children were in constant closeness with mothers, with the latter years of childhood being full of wet and messy play.

Punitive parenting is defined in this post as anything fear-based in parenting. Children should not have to fear their parents. Instead, children should be close to their parents. 

The depraved and entitled parents who provoke their children to anger through punitive parenting will not inherit the Kingdom of God! Let them be cast forever into the lake of fire and burning sulfur, which is the second death prepared for Satan and his accomplices! Let them descend into the abyss which is the ever-burning Hell of fire and torment, suffering God's Wrath day and night forever and ever! Repent, for the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!

"Benign" deprivation: Why children need all of their needs

Many parents buy into it. The argument is that parents don't have to meet all of the needs of their children. The idea behind "benign" deprivation is that children should not be comforted when they cry, except under certain specific times when it is "warranted".

"Benign" deprivation is a violation of the Christian doctrine of mutual submission, with the burden of proof falling squarely onto parents. See Colossians 3:20-21 KJV:

Children, obey your parent in all things: for this is well pleasing unto the Lord. Fathers, provoke not your children to anger, lest they be discouraged.

The Greek root word translated "obey" is υπακουο (Latin: hupakouo) and refers to secure, vulnerable rest in the love and submission of parents. This word ultimately refers to a secure attachment between parent and child in the family home. This secure attachment comes from parent submission, where parents give without receiving, from beneath yet from above, expecting absolutely nothing in return. See also Matt. 22:35-40, 25:31-46.

The Greek root word translated "provoke...to anger" is ερεθιζο (Latin: erethizo) and refers to damages or offenses, namely the slightest of personal offense perceived by a child, including, but not limited to, the slightest of offensive touch or speech perceived by a child, stemming from entitlement. This commandment was intended by the Apostle Paul, and was understood in its original context, as a moral statute prohibiting all forms of punitive parents, including, but not limited to, any punishments, reprimands, or other controlling demeanor towards children. In the Old Testament, punitive parents were put to death by way of bloodletting, after punishing their children one last time. The parents who punished their children were charged with kidnapping, with "kidnapping" being defined under the Law as the slightest of damages or offenses stemming from hostage-taking - child punishment was seen in biblical times as holding your child hostage merely for things that they did wrong, thereby treating your child as a quartered slave. Paul here was lifting up the Law in order to convict a group of Greek Christian parents who brought their pagan custom of spanking and punishing children into the church. Paul, contrary to popular legend, was anti-spanking, and opposed any and all punishment of a child in his secular writings. Paul may not have gotten along with the women of the church, but he sure loved children, and even took in a few orphaned children during his time as a deacon.

The concept of "benign" deprivation gives parents room to ignore some of the needs of children, in order to focus on "real" needs. However, children growing up in the Early Church got all of what they needed, with this including most of what they wanted. Maybe the child was tired. Maybe the child was hungry. Maybe the child needed mom's milk. Maybe the child needed mom, period.

Children have five basic categories of needs; food, water, shelter, transportation, and attachment - and the greatest of these needs is attachment! In the Early Church, whenever a child was tired, it was deemed an attachment need, as mothers co-snuggled and co-slept next to children whenever the child needed a nap. This co-snuggling, in biblical times, was done in skin-on-skin format. 

A common method of "benign" deprivation is to say "no" to almost every petitioned request coming from children. In the Early Church, customary law prohibited parents from saying "no", by default. The only exceptions to this general rule was if the petitioned request was unsafe, unworkable, and/or immoral. Even then, the word "no" had to be given with reassurance and an explanation.

The depraved and entitled parents who provoke their children to anger through punitive parenting will not inherit the Kingdom of God! Let them be cast forever into the lake of fire and burning sulfur, which is the second death prepared for Satan and his accomplices! Let them descend into the abyss which is the ever-burning Hell of fire and torment, suffering God's Wrath day and night forever and ever! Repent, for the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!                                                                                                                                                                               

Punitive parenting: Why punitive parenting is not the way to deal with childhood behaviors

Many parents think that the Bible prescribes punishment or force in parenting. This is a common attitude amongst American parents. Most American parents cite the Bible to justify their punitive parenting habits. However, the fact of the matter is that punitive parenting, including punishment of all kinds, is prohibited in the Bible.

The Greek root word denoting parental entitlement is πλεονέκτης (Latin: pleonektés) and is defined as, officially speaking, wanting things from children, to the point of imposition. Unofficially speaking, parental entitlement is a parent being sorely disappointed when they don't get what they feel that they deserve from children. Parents are deserving of absolutely nothing from children just for existing. Parent anger towards children was deemed parental entitlement in all cases. When this sense of entitlement was perceived as offensive or damaging by a child, it was deemed child abuse. See also Colossians 3:21 KJV:

Fathers, provoke not your children to anger, lest they be discouraged.

The Greek root word translated "provoke...to anger" is ερεθιζο (Latin: erethizo) and refers to damages or offenses, namely the slightest of personal offense perceived by a child, including, but not limited to, the slightest of offensive touch or speech perceived by a child, stemming from entitlement.

Paul may not have gotten along with the women of the church, but he sure loved children, and even took in a few orphaned children during his time as a deacon.

Punitive parenting means any parenting that is fear-based. Most parenting in America is punitive in nature. In most American homes, children are frequently put in time-out, with there also being the occasional disciplinary spanking done "out of love". All of this is banned in the Bible, as it provokes offense in the child. Any time a child lives in fear of an adult, that is deemed child abuse.

Any anger towards a child was deemed parental entitlement in biblical times. Anger towards a child was seen as something not to expose a child to. Any anger towards a child was seen as akin to a viper lashing out at a child. Adult anger towards children was seen as something abhorrent, in a predatory way. Most parents then did not get angry at their children, and instead were motivated by worry and concern.

The depraved and entitled parents who provoke their children to anger through punitive parenting will not inherit the Kingdom of God! Let them be cast forever into the lake of fire and burning sulfur, which is the second death prepared for Satan and his accomplices! Let them descend into the abyss which is the ever-burning Hell of fire and torment, suffering God's Wrath day and night forever and ever! Repent, for the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!

How to pacify a crying child in public

Many parents think that crying children deserve punishment when they "embarrass" a parent with a public meltdown. This sort of meltdown is a common excuse for child punishment. However, the fact of the matter is that there is a simple way to pacify crying in a child - swaddling blankets.

Children's rest in swaddling blankets is a form of the doctrine of mutual submission, with the burden of proof falling squarely on the part of parents. See Colossians 3:20-21 KJV:

Children, obey your parents in all things: for this is well pleasing unto the Lord. Fathers, provoke not your children to anger, lest they be discouraged.

The Greek root word translated "obey" is υπακουο (Latin: hupakouo) and refers to secure, vulnerable rest in the love and submission of parents.

This secure attachment comes from parent submission, where parents are to submit to their children, from beneath yet from above, giving to children without receiving, expecting absolutely nothing in return. See also Matt. 22:35-40, 25:31-46.

The Greek root word translated "provoke...to anger" is ερεθιζο (Latin: erethizo) and refers to damages or offenses, namely the slightest of personal offense perceived by a child, including, but not limited to, the slightest of offensive touch or speech perceived by a child, stemming from entitlement. This commandment was intended by the Apostle Paul, and was understood in its original context, as a moral statute prohibiting all forms of punitive parenting, including, but not limited to, any punishments, reprimands, or other controlling demeanor towards children. In the Old Testament, punitive parents were put to death by way of bloodletting, after punishing their children one last time.

Paul, contrary to popular legend, was anti-spanking, and opposed any and all punishment of a child in his secular writings. Paul may not have gotten along with the women of the church, but he sure loved children, and even took in a few orphaned children during his time as a deacon.

The cries of young children - under age 6 - were pacified in biblical times by way of being wrapped up next to the bosom of mothers in swaddling blankets. The swaddling blankets - and the child with them - were tied from the left breast, then across the dot to the right leg, or vice versa, or both in the case of twins. From there, the swaddled child was tucked underneath the loose-fitting, revealing dress worn by mothers that resembled an apron. When children cried while being swaddled, they cried silently, in a pacified manner. The swaddling blankets worn by children in the Early Church were made of velvet, with velvet being grown throughout the Ancient Middle East.

Most public meltdowns are a reaction to the word "no". The idea is to use the word "no" seldom, meaning almost never. Whenever children were swaddled next to the bosom of mothers, they cried quietly and in pacified format when they wanted something off of the shelf. The child simply pointed to the item that they wanted, and then mom took the item of the shelf, just for the child who is snuggly warm in the bosom of mothers, with children enjoying the view from their rest in the bosom of mothers.

Today, you see children kicking and screaming on the floor of a restaurant or store. That almost never happened in biblical times. Swaddling blankets serve to pacify the cries of children. They do cry, but only silently, meaning tears only and without the wailing. Children also enjoyed the view from being wrapped up next to the bosom of mothers.

The depraved and entitled parents who provoke their children to anger through punitive parenting will not inherit the Kingdom of God! Let them be cast forever into the lake of fire and burning sulfur, which is the second death prepared for Satan and his accomplices! Let them descend into the abyss which is the ever-burning Hell of fire and torments, suffering God's Wrath day and night forever and ever! Repent, for the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!

Adult attraction to children: Individual responsibility for adults attraction to children

Many parents and adults use the concept of collective responsibility to combat child sexual abuse. Collective responsibility involves gauging how quickly an institution responds to the embarrassment of having a child rapist on board with them - the more transparent, the better. However, pointing the finger is not the best attitude towards child sexual abuse. Whenever you point the finger, four more are pointing back at you. All adults are guilty in relation to children, merely for existing, as all adults pose some threat to children sexually.

1 in 10 children will be sexually abused before attaining the age of 18. However, only 1-2% of the male population are pedophiles, and so pedophiles can't be guilty for all of the sexual abuse happening to children. Most child sexual abuse is a crime of opportunity, with the act being a response to a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that the adult in question refuses to abstain from. Making the choice to abstain from child sexual abuse is a commitment to a child in the form of lifestyle choice.

The Greek root word denoting lust in the Bible is έπιθυμέω (Latin: epithumeo) and refers not to mere sexual desire, but instead refers to sexual entitlement. Sexual entitlement is defined as, officially speaking, sexual want, to the point of sexually motivated approach. It is okay to look the look, and maybe think the think later. But, there is a big difference between thinking the think and doing the deed. "Doing the deed" refers to, at minimum, flirting with or propositioning a child, or else to touching a child at all with sexual intent. The only way out of the approach is to allow yourself righteous masturbation to child fantasies.

If you have a sexual attraction to a child, it should be made safe to disclose that attraction. If you can identify by your adult attractions to children, identify by it, as an at-risk adult, in most cases, cannot express that emotional reality with others. Some pedophiles post a risk to children, but that risk - in most cases - is minimal compared to other adults. The way to disclose is using clinical language, including possibly clinical celebratory language if necessary. 

I myself am a flawed adult, and have a sin list a mile long in relation to children. I myself have a sexual harassment problem in relation to children. I myself would follow young girls around in public, wanting romantic closeness with the child in question. I myself was an obvious abuser, meaning I made my advances towards children obvious to the child and everyone else around her. Most pedophiles have a squeaky-clean track record in relation to children. I didn't, and so I use myself to point out what to find in an abuser pedophile. 

Only 1 in 4 pedophiles are guilty of child sexual abuse towards a child, with the rest posing minimal risk in relation to children. Most of the time, the pedophilic perpetrator surfaces in the form of sexual harassment. Most pedophiles have a form of immature autism where their sexual development is arrested in time. Most of the time, the pedophile has an autistic specialty in children in terms of knowledge and social skills, with their age-oriented sexual preferences reflecting their specialty. The word "pedophile" simply means "friend of little children" in Greek. Some pedophiles did commit actual rape towards a child, but those instances are rare. 

Most adult men in particular have sexual attractions to teenage girls. Most adult women presumably have a sexual attraction to teenage boys, as many teenage boys have sexually mature features. Most child sexual abuse is committed against teenage girls. Thus, any old adult could sexually abuse a child, under the right/wrong conditions. The key is to admit to those hidden desires, and be self-honest about them using righteous masturbation. 

With righteous masturbation, you get to explore all of the possibilities with a child known to man, but always landing with the same conclusion - nothing at all. I myself experience masturbation as cathartic, meaning it purges all unrequited lusts in relation to children. I personally also use righteous avoidance strategies, such as charring and tarring all prospects with images of Hell. Most pedophiles don't need righteous avoidance to keep children safe, but I am an abuser pedophile myself in terms of track record, and so I need the extra self-accountability. I also have confided in my mother, and appointed her as my accountability partner. 

The depraved and decadent, defiled adults who rape and sexually abuse children will not inherit the Kingdom of God! Let them descend into torrents of Hell-fire, which is the second death prepared for Satan and his accomplices! Repent!
