What is gratitude as a parent?

 Many parents are entitled in this country. A parent is never grateful for anything their child does for them, and if a parent is truly grateful, they aren't really a parent at all, but simply are raising children/have raised children. I have never met a single parent that was grateful for their child. Just my mother, and she is a good parent, and she never brags to anyone about it. I love children, and am grateful that they exist. I want them to exist feeling safe and within eyeshot.

Love is gratitude. Love is submission to children. Love, in the New Testament, is denoted by the Greek root word denoting love is αγαπαο (Latin: agapao) and refers to lawful, judicial, and selfless subjection to a child as their enemy (GRK: υποτασσο), just as mankind is the enemy of God, and submits to God as such, with children in His place as the "least of these", knowing that one, as an adult, cannot possibly know what it is truly like to be a child. This all leads to indentured servitude, where the parent is bound and beholden to the child for a time-space.

Gratitude is not simply "asking for more". Think more wanting more, but in a pushy, coercive, or otherwise controlling way, meaning anyone who seeks to control another person, at all, apart from preservation of life or limb, is ungrateful, and thus entitled.

Ingratitude is when good works go unnoticed, but in a disrespectful way. It is related to the concept of pro-social ego exposure. An example would be if a responding officer at the Reading Police Department bent over backwards to accommodate me if I were to press charges, and give me helpful advice, and I happen to attack him and say "you hate all us pedophiles" and be constantly belligerent or at the very least downright rude...The officer has a job that involves a high burnout rate, and was responding on the side of things that was intended to disprove guilt and pin it where it should be. The officer, by rights, could just say "you are being incorrigible, attacking me with that sick thing by mention. I'm not helping you anymore. Go KYS if you are still afraid of persecution - meaning not abuse because I downright think you deserve it"

Now, if being unable to explain something very frightening that happened out of nowhere, like a rape, gets one called "incorridgible" and kicked out of the precinct, the police are the ones being ungrateful to your trauma, meaning the officers responding and taking the report, then cracking jokes on the side. I don't like that policy at all, but I just brush it off when I am sexualized based on my status in the movement.

These principles of gratitude can be applied to parenting as well. Parents should be grateful for their children, meaning avoiding disrespecting them by complaining about them. Parents are to shut up, and submit to their child's needs in a shamefaced and understated manner.

THE UNGRATEFUL PARENTS SHALL BURN IN ETERNAL TORMENT! I am grateful for the existence of your children, even if YOU take them for granted.

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.

Many parents think that time-out is a safe alternative to corporal punishment of children. This is a common attitude amongst American parent...
