Respect in parenting: Why parents must respect children

 Most parents in this country want to be respected, and punish children in the process. This is a common mistake among parents. 70% of parents support spanking a child as punishment. The reality is that parents should respect their children first.

Every single adult is culpable for their mere existence in relation to children, and is to submit to the every vulnerable need of children as their enemy, knowing that one has a capacity to sin, abuse, or oppress a child, knowing never more that one knows of what childhood is like. Parents are to respect their children, and give them everything they need/want, such as food, water, shelter, and most of all, attachment. This is Christian love, and is denoted by the Greek root word υπακουο. It says in Ephesians 6:1-4 KJV:

Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right. Honor thy father and mother, for this is the first commandment with promise; May it be well with thee, and thou mayest live long upon the earth. And, ye fathers, provoke not your children to anger, but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord.

The Greek root word υπακουο (Latin: hupakouo) represents the rewards of proper parenting, meaning the child complies and cooperates out of blind, secure trust of parents, known as secure attachment. In young children, it is prolonged closeness to parents. In older children and teenagers, it is ultimate trust in parents, like a file folder, with children allowing parents to know anything and everything about them, and feeling safe and empowered with parents filing through the information.

The Greek root word translated "nurture" is παιδεία (Latin: paideia) and refers to the chastening of the Lord in parents. Behaviorism is for parents to impose on themselves, and for children to emulate. This ultimately refers to co-regulation, with children being able to express their true selves and big feelings, leading to the child being strict with themselves, as opposed to parents being strict on them. A child needs to learn how to discipline themselves, and punitive parenting makes them dependent on punishment as a means of controlling themselves. The Greek root word translated "admonition" is νουθεσία (Latin: nouthesia) and refers to the word "no" and its various variants, meaning any limit or boundary imposed by a parent on a child, positive or negative. This, however, is weighed against the Greek root word παροργιζο (Latin: parorogizo) and refers to God's definition of child abuse, which is damages imposed on a child, meaning the slightest of personal slights imposed upon a child, with controlling, demanding, or punitive intent. Simply say "please" and "thank you" to your child.

Let the parents who defend their glorified title burn in eternal Hell-fire, suffering the second death prepared for Satan and his angels! Repent, for the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!
