There are many different ways that parents view children. Many parents shove their children aside, and don't have time towards their children. What is the best way to love your child? Fear. Fear your child, as this is the first component of love.
It says in Colossians 3:20 KJV:
Children, obey your parents in all things, as this is well-pleasing unto the Lord.
The Greek root word translated "obey" is υπακουο (Latin: hupakouo) and refers to secure rest and surrender in the provision of parents in terms of care, support, or accountability, with children owing nothing in return. This is a result of Christian love, denoted by the Greek root word αγαπαο (Latin: agapao) and refers to good intent leading to good works.
What capitulates the good works of Christian love for children? Reverent fear of one's child! The Greek root word translated ψοβός (Latin: phobos) and refer to convicting fear and terror that leads to action to help or protect a child, feeling convicted by the Holy Spirit to do good works, and when the good works benefit a child, it is love, as it is felt by the parent or other adult in the form of reward and gratitude.
Love is submission to one's child as their enemy, just as mankind is the enemy of God, and should submit accordingly. Parents are to sacrifice for their children as an extension of Christ, sacrificing for them like Christ Himself gave himself up for his own children, rendering oneself lower than your child as a parent.
Let the parents who punish, control, or coddle children fear the fire of Hell. Let them burn! Let them suffer! Repent, for the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!

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will not be published.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.
