Demands vs. requests: Why never to expect anything of your child

Many parents in America are demanding on their children. They give "lawfully ordained" commands towards their children, in a mosaic of scum that is the parent species of monster. Think wrecking through the supermarket, tearing down the aisles, because their child "won't listen". This is how we view those entitled spoogs and specks here at anti-parent.

Exodus 20:17 KJV cites the commandment against coveting, which is the root of all child abuse:

Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy neighbour's.

The Hebrew word translated "covet" is לחמוד (Latin: lachmod) and refers not merely to wanting things from children, but wanting things to the point of seeking to impose said want onto a child. Imposing any want on a child is abuse once it offends the child, by way of incurring upset, alarm, and/or discomfort.

The idea is to ask a child to do something, and not demand that they obey or trust you blindly. I don't demand or expect anything of a child. I ask polite, saying "please" and "thank you" politely, in a ushering, looking up manner, showing good Christian manners and etiquette, respecting my child (meaning yours) not merely to get respect in return, but because it is the right thing to do. It's hard being a child, and having limited voice, alongside limited words to voice that voice, so it is good to be kind and respectful towards children, and they will do the same back. You end up treating everyone this way once you take this shamefaced attitude towards children.

The Greek root word cross-referencing the Tenth Commandment in the New Testament is πλεονέκτης (Latin: pleonektes) and refers to a prevailing attitude of entitlement, in this case parental entitlement, namely "I am a good, loving parent, so you listen to me and respect me!" Nope, respect is earned in life. Colossians 3:20-21 KJV:

Children, obey your parents in all things, as is well-pleasing unto the Lord. Fathers, provoke not your children to anger, lest they become discourages.

The Greek root word translated "obey" is υπακουο (Latin: hupakouo) and refers to surrender coming from the surrender of loving parents. Parenting had a very different meaning then, and is denoted by the Greek root word γονεύς (Latin: goneus) and refers to a parent that is servile in an empathetic way, and one that admits their depraved and wicked sin nature, with parenting being indentured servitude. Parents were caregivers then, not lawgivers, except rarely with adult children. Minor children are simply to be cared for, and selflessly, judiciously, and without complaint or question as to their needs. This means putting on a brave smile for your child, and listening to and validating their needs, serving them first, and your needs last. Your needs do come into play, and you have needs to, but you assume they have needs first. You are to expect things of yourself as a parent, and not of your child. Your child is not there for you. She is an independent, autonomous human being and citizen of this country, but a care-dependent member of our society that needs your help, based on their lawful and binding decree. Love is not a feeling for a child, but a verb, and is submission to the child's every need as an enemy, just as mankind is the enemy of God. Love is atoning for your innate entitlement, power, and control you have as an adult in relation to a child, with said state being denoted by the Greek root word αγαπαο (Latin: agapao)

I, as a conservative parent of your child, expect nothing and demand nothing, perhaps when she is in my care, with me being the parent in loco parentis. I may have authority over children as an adult, but I surrender it at the feet of the child, and don't order her around like some crabby, ungrateful adult. I ask children things nicely, using good manners, and being polite when asking them. With that attitude, children are more than happy to listen, at least when explained why. At least the bulk of the time. It's like a casual friendship with children, as a group, and I, when one is in my care. You hang out, talk freely, or rather she does and shows you her world, and setting limits is like refusing to lend your friend $400 after his car broke down, because "I'm broke too". 

Let the depraved and entitled parents BURN! Let them languish in the lake of fire and brimstone, suffering the second death! Repent, for the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!
