It has been a while since I have been upset by anything posted here. Most times, it is about art, it is funny, it is cute, or it is nice. This series has a good intention, and it truly has some very funny entries. However, many entries are funny at first look but if you think about them, they reveal very, very questionable parenting ethics. Shaming your children publicly? Using normally positive things and turning them into punishment? Even using psychological violence? What seemingly might be "old style parenting" and getting rid of an "anti-authoritarian" style of raising kids truly reflects the immaturity of those parents. Since when is it wise to replace trust by fear? Since when does incomprehensible punishments lead to learning? I am sure that this posting along with some comments I left will get me tons of downvotes since people are here for the fun, but seeing something I perceive to be so wrong simply quenches my desire to post funny or puny comments.

A lot of the behavior by the parents is no better than the wrong done by their kids. It's no wonder the kids are acting out.... just look at the parenting here.

I feel sorry for all the parents who had no one to set the example of a good parent. Sadly, Most are doing the best they know how.

Great :))

Most of these are great ideas but parents that have to bully or publicly shame their kids into behaving are crappy parents.

amazing tips for future

Wow, most of these were TERRIBLE. The topic title was "15+ genius ..." but I couldn't find more than one. Keep it simple: spank your kids.
