Dope Tech Episode 2

<<@CrossExamined says : Listen to the full podcast here👉📱https://bit.ly/3yChKf6>> <<@carlausoff6407 says : My bff was a helicopter mom, and she is going to be worse with her grandson. And she comes crying to me about the lack of respect and decency she gets from her adult children. Always emphasized with "I would NEVER do/say that to my mom." As I don't have children I am not allowed to point out that our parents never once tried to be our friends. We were loved, and cherished. We played and talked, but we knew that boundary.>> <<@user-br3ou2cs9o says : Sometimes you gotta whoop dat butt. Amen✝️🕊️>> <<@TrussAdams says : Every generation thinks that the following generation is messed up. My generation is complaning about today's kids, my parents complained about my generation, and my grandparents complain about their kids generation. Yet somehow we all muddle through. Just because they approach the world differently then we do does not mean they are lost. And sure maybe Life will have to teach them some harsh lessons, but life teaches all of us harsh lessons.>> <<@mandys6525 says : Discipline="disciple". Guide your children but proper consequences are necessary for some types of disobedience. Never discipline in anger but act in a measured way with the Lord's guidance and wisdom. I am a retired teacher and I have witnessed the "no/weak consequence parenting." It causes the children to feel lost but also not be prepared for everyday life. It's very unfortunate and sad that such has become the acceptable "new normal.">> <<@cgrassen says : I definitely don't support a Pollyanna approach to parenting but if Johnny just wacked his brother with a bat and the parent takes a rod to him. Are they not doing to Johnny what they didn't want him to do to his brother? Come on, think man!!>> <<@forhisglory1984 says : My school district believes all children are good and their decisions are a manifestation of society so we should not punish them. The children are in charge of my school.>> <<@garygloska7396 says : If God cast our sins into the sea never to be remembered than what happens it judgement day when we receive every reward and have to account for all we say or do whether it be good or bad???>> <<@waxwaine says : Tyrannical kids. Imagine them in the future as bosses or politicians>> <<@AprilMcMillanCreative says : Many people are jumping on this bandwagon and making blanket assumptions. Then (maybe through confirmation bias) they observe families with kids doing what immature people do and say that must be gentle parenting. Unless you live with that family every day, you are making an assumption about how the parents really operate. Just because they aren’t putting on a display of punishment in front of everyone doesn’t mean that they do nothing at all to address their child’s misbehavior. If anyone has a genuine curiosity and is willing to take an honest look, you should check out (1) Connected Families and (2) Flourishing Homes and Families. They acknowledge sin and offer reasonable approaches to solve problems without destroying trust. But people really need to stop assuming they know everything about a persons parenting by what they observe in a child’s moment, day or stage of life. Something that “worked” for your parents and your friends parents may not work for some kids. If you’re concerned about a loved one’s parenting, try asking them (with respect and humility) what is their philosophy and approach and how they go about deciding how to handle things as they do. We have to stop judging by appearance.>> <<@Paulthored says : Even worse potentially, is lacking a Parent. Lacking both Parents is bad, but _having only one missing is possibly worse..._ *As it comes with the issues of both Bad/Stretched/"Gentle" parenting, and the Absence of a parental figure.*>> <<@larzman651 says : 24 He that spareth his rod hateth his son: but he that loveth him chasteneth him betimes.>> <<@snarkyjoe3556 says : Crippling the economy for future generations is doing far more harm.>> <<@chloemartel9927 says : Our responsibility as parents is to enable children to be wise and discerning adults, able to function in society. It is crippling to them to raise entitled, narcissistic brats thinking the world will indulge their behaviors as their parents did.>> <<@teamxcelap2 says : Gentle parenting apparently encompasses a broad spectrum of approaches. And while they're certainly are plenty out there who don't spank and don't punish and only want to have pleasant conversations with the child, there are also plenty who understand that it's more about the appropriate application of what type of consequence. If a child hits another child or does something that puts themselves or others In Harm's way, the punishment will need to be swifter and more severe. But if a toddler, for example, is having a meltdown in a grocery store because they were told they couldn't have a candy bar, then you don't simply spank the child. Not because you don't want to instill discipline, but because you want to be effective in your correction. If a child is caught up in their emotions and at that age is not capable of controlling all those hormones and feelings rushing through them, then simply fussing at them or inflicting some pain with a spanking is not going to register with them. They're not going to be able to draw the connection between their behavior and the consequences.>> <<@annamae-zing says : True gentle parenting doesn’t walk away from discipline nor is it permissive. The actual term that should be used is authoritative (not authoritarian). It’s dealing with the issues your kids are having without being a bully about it but not letting them get away with it either. It has to be a balance.>> <<@gi169 says : Thank you CrossExamined.>> <<@user-im3bf8py3f says : We raised them!! It started with us the Gen X we knew all the things that we did and got away with and didn’t want our kids to do all that stuff so we started helicopter parenting placing to much emphasis on them raising a Narcissist generation.. 2 more generations later here we are…>> <<@mattk6719 says : I learned more successful parenting philosophies from the Marine Corps than I ever did from new-age psychology. Yet the Bible prescribes the best advice.>> <<@MaryBarrett-ez1sm says : True that!! Different upbringing different type of parents !! Its a whole new difficult world we are living in>> <<@JadDragon says : I see it first hand. Kids are getting worse and society is encouraging it. Jesus lives! ♥️ and is God 🙏🏻 Christ ✝️ and King 👑>> <<@kayheart1413 says : Use the rod- oh boy, I was a bad kid and the rod helped me. That’s the only way I understood; Oh man I was a bad kiddo😅. And I am so thankful to my parents. They were patient with me. ❤>> <<@thebuff7271 says : The entitlement, triggered, don't hurt my feelings generation..>> <<@jamesw4250 says : No. Harsh corpral parenting is. People often misunderstand what gentle parenting is and its because people like franky boy here misrepsent what it is.>> <<@DM-dk7js says : Pretty sure the opposite, beating children, created a whole generation of behavioral issues we see today. Children obviously are good by nature, we just need to mold them and put up safeguards.>>
