Pro-social parentification/deification: Why children should have choices

 What is pro-social parentification? What is parentification? Putting a child in the parent role before they are ready, namely a selfless parent. No child should be forced to be in a caregiver role on behalf of an adult. 

It says in Matthew 25:31-46 KJV:

Then shall he say unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, everlasting fire, For I was hungred, and ye gave me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me no drink. I was a stranger, and ye took me not in: naked, and ye clothed me not; sick and in prison, and ye visited me not. Then shall he answer, him, saying, Lord, when we saw thee an hungred, or athirst, or a stranger, and did not minister unto thee? Then shall he answer to him, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did not unto one of the least of these, yet did it not unto me. And these shall go away into ever-burning fire.

This is a figurative, allegorical statement. Children are parents to me, but not in the selfless sense. They are selfish parents, and demand that *I* meet THEIR needs from afar, or else egress from the situation.

Entitlement, as denoted in the New Testament, by the Greek root word πλεονέκτης (Latin: pleonektés) is not only wanting things from a child, but wanting them to the point of imposing said item on a child. This includes a want, meaning "need", for a child to take care of you just like you were her child. 

I myself am this sort of behaviorally entitled parent, by nature. I switched the entitlement. Instead of trying to "win her over" in an entitled way, I acknowledged and was convicted of the fact that I am not entitled to a child liking or approving of me, and that I must earn that endeavor.
