Many here in the children's rights community wonder whether a conservative Christian can be a gentle parent. A disproportionate of our survivors grew up in conservatives, and I am here to buck the trend, in a respectful and compassionate way that weighs both sides like an easel. I was born in original sin, and the child an extension of God to hearken to, and serve as an indentured servant. I am afraid, by being afraid of myself, in relation to her.
The notion behind gentle parenting is that parents are flawed, and not perfect merely for existing in relation to children. The opposite of sin is perfection, therefore all parents everywhere are born in original sin due to being woefully imperfect, at the very best.
The Greek root word denoting entitlement in the New Testament is πλεονέκτης (Latin: pleonektés) and refers to not merely wanting things from a child, but wanting them to the point of imposition of said item, leading to theft/abuse, as denoted by the Greek root word κλεπτω (Latin: kleptó). Entitlement is the attitude that "I am a parent, and I have the right to control/punish/discipline my child". All adults are prone to entitlement in relation to children.
All adults, by default, are marked for deletion, and will be destroyed and annihilated on the last day, and are entitled to absolutely nothing from a child except DEATH and PUNISHMENT, with adults being commanded to be lawfully, judicially, and selflessly subject to their child as her enemy, just as mankind is the enemy of God, and must humble himself before Him in lawful compliance, for children are the "least of these" in relation to adults, and are to be respected as such, with reverent fear in relation to children, denoted by the Greek root word ψοβός (Latin: phobos) referring to fear of one's nature in relation to children...I am afraid of imposing sexual abuse and entitlement onto children, to the point of avoiding antisocial "leer", and thus am conditioned to gaze from afar, no matter the closeness.
A true conservative does not, in fact, oppose the concept of privilege. I admit personal privilege, meaning surround sound privilege. The Christian acronym of pro-social innocence of wrongdoing means I presume privilege over everyone, but may put extra emphasis on children, as children are the most oppressed people on the planet...I don't know what it is like to be a child, but how on earth can I know what it is like to be anyone? I often guess, looking in perhaps in this movement, but I don't know. Thus, a conservative can be a gentle parent. Most just don't know that yet.

Any comment that
1. Endorses child abuse (including pornography of such)
2. Imposes want to the point of imposition, meaning entitlement.
3. Contains self-entitled parent rhetoric, to the point of self-victimization
will not be published. Flexible application. Debate is allowed, but only civil arguments that presume the best of intentions in their opponent, on both sides.
