Fear your child: Why to dutifully and fearfully submit to your child

Many parents think that their children should submit to them. This is a common belief amongst American parents. Most parents believe that they are entitled to their children submitting to them, and serving them. However, the fact of the matter is that Rome reversed it - parents are to dutifully and selflessly submit to their children, out of reverent fear.

Reverent fear rarely exists in a vacuum. Christian love is denoted by the Greek root word αγαπαο (Latin: agapao) and refers to, in this tense, prioritizing children first, and yourself last, to the point of dutiful and selfless submission to the every vulnerable need of children, expecting absolutely nothing in return from children or anyone else. True Love does not come from pride or desire, but instead from a place of fearful conviction, as denoted by the Greek root word ψοβός (Latin: phobos), with this conviction involving coming to the knowledge that you, as a parent and a human being, are a depraved and decadent sinner deserving of absolutely nothing, from children or anyone else. This leads to the sinner paying due penance for their depraved and decadent sin nature by serving their neighbor. Children were seen as your neighbor in biblical times. See Matt. 22:35-40.

Parents are to submit selflessly and fearfully to their children, just as they would God, with children surrendering and resting securely in the wake of said submission. See Colossians 3:20-21 KJV:

Children, obey your parents in all things: for this is well pleasing unto the Lord. Fathers, provoke not your children, lest they be discouraged.

The Greek root word translated "obey" is υπακουο (Latin: hupakouo) and refers to secure, vulnerable rest in the love and grace of parents. Children are to rest securely in the sacrifice of parents, just as parent believers rest securely in the Sacrifice of Jesus Christ. Parents are to be extensions of Christ in the family home, sacrificing for their children, just as Christ sacrificed for His children, with children being a Godhead for parents to serve, with children resting securely in the submission of parents, owing absolutely nothing in return to parents. Parents are the enemy of children, just as mankind is the enemy of God, with parents being subservient to them just as they are to Him, expecting absolutely nothing in return.

The Greek root word translated "provoke...to anger" is ερεθιζο (Latin: erethizo) and refers to damages or offenses, namely the slightest of personal offense perceived by a child, including, but not limited to, the slightest of offensive touch or speech perceived by the child, coming from entitlement. This commandment was intended by the Apostle Paul, and understood in its original context, as a moral statute prohibiting all forms of punitive parenting, including any form of punishment or controlling demeanor towards a child. In the Old Testament, punitive parents were put to death by way of bloodletting, after punishing their children one last time. Parents who punished their children were charged with kidnapping, with "kidnapping" being defined under the Law as the slightest of damages or offenses stemming from hostage-taking - child punishment was seen then as holding your child hostage merely for things they did wrong, therefore enslaving them. Paul here was lifting up this legal context to a group of Greek Christians who brought their pagan custom of spanking and punishing children into the church. Paul, contrary to popular legend, was anti-spanking, and opposed any and all punishment of a child.

Children, in biblical times, wore no clothing, at all, until they became adults. Women only wore clothing when outside the home, otherwise going in the nude, in order to serve their husband and their children, separately. Mothers served their children by way of providing for them nourishment and sustenance, namely breastmilk (until age 3) and skin-to-skin closeness and intimacy, respectively. The core aspect of Christian attachment parenting in the Early Church was skin-on-skin co-sleeping, where mother and child slept next to each other, snuggling and cuddling in skin-to-skin closeness and intimacy, and with the mother holding the child close to her bosom.

Fathers should also be involved in their child's life, albeit minimally and while regarding the mother as the real expert on the children. Fathers are to be passive with their children, like a human ragdoll, being guided about, dragged around like an old toy, not complaining one bit, being grateful for everything about their child. Fathers should also, in their passive attention to their children, encourage their child to go the right way, guiding them gently in their religious education. I myself, as an adult, am passive around children, meaning they order me around as to what they need from me, and I hearken to those orders. All fathers should learn to be passive around children, and that can be done by admitting to your parent attraction to your child, and re-channeling the attraction inwards through solo masturbation. Most all fathers are attracted to their children, especially children of the opposite sex. Repressing this attraction only leads to abuse once it comes out sideways onto the child. Instead, spend it away using masturbation, following the sexual thought about your child to the end instead of repressing it.

Children, as a collective, are an extension of God called to strike reverent fear and terror into adults, with adults meant by God to fear and revere His earthly extension. Allow yourselves to be policed by your children from beneath, as it is the role of children to hold parents and similarly charged adults accountable to their duties. We as adults are depraved and decadent sinners deserving of absolutely nothing from children. Instead, we are to be convicted of our original sin as adults, struck with reverent fear and terror from the child's every command. Beware, for the nature of children is wrathful and rebellious, so please and appease your child, and keep them happy. As an adult, I am afraid of a child and her wrath, and am convicted by the every cry and demand of a child. I hearken to the commands of children, struck with reverent fear and terror. I comply when a child wants something from me, and avoid the word "no" at all costs. A child is not to be kept down. A child is to be pleased and appeased, kept happy by their parents. I don't want to be in trouble with a child, so I show them respect. The righteous contention between parent and child should be a child who always wants something, and a parent who has the money and resources to please their child with a treat. 

The depraved and entitled parents who provoke their children to anger through punitive parenting will not inherit the Kingdom of God! Let them be forever cast into the lake of fire and burning sulfur, which is the second death prepared for Satan and his accomplices! Let them descend into the abyss which is the Hell of fire and torment, suffering God's Wrath forever and ever! Repent, for the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!
