Okay, this is a really, really poor parenting plan, but sadly it is one that I see in place in the lives of many children. Realize that this list was created with my tongue firmly implanted in my cheek.
- Give your children everything they want. “Never, Never, ever tell your children, “No.”
- Put your children before your spouse.
- Do not give your children chores.
- Take your children’s side when there are conflicts with teachers, principals, coaches, and other adults.
- Believe EVERYTHING your child tells you.
- Do not discipline them, let them learn “naturally.”
- Send them to Bible Class (Church) without going yourself.
- Never think your children can do wrong.
- Always criticize your children.
What other advice can you give on how to be a poor parent?

1 Just be their friend. That’s what they need most—you as their friend.
2 Teach and reinforce that they are entitled—the world owes them. They are after all, God’s gift to the world.
Nice addition. Very nice. Thanks
