Examples of parenting approaches that create a liberal worldview:

 

RESCUING PARENTS:  These parents rescue a child from living with consequences of his actions. They pay for his broken windows, clean up his messes, replace his lost toys, and pay his parking tickets.
The result:
The child grows up believing he should not have to live with the consequences of his choices. As an adult he believes it is the government’s duty to provide clean needles for drug abusers, condoms and abortions for the promiscuous, and a cure for those who choose a risky sexual lifestyle.

 

INDULGENT PARENTS: These parents confuse indulgence with love. They fail to realize the sense of entitlement they cultivate in their children by giving them everything they can afford: toys, computers, cell phones, DVD’s, video games, etc. In these homes the parents are intimidated by their children’s whining or complaining, so are hesitant to make the children suffer through healthy food, daily chores, and “waiting.”
The result:
These children grow up with an over-exalted sense of their own importance. They believe it is the duty of the government and employers to take care of all their wants and needs. In their way of thinking, for life to be fair -- everything must be equal. For them, compassion equals socialistic thinking -- the government must forcefully take from the haves and share it with have-nots.

 

PERMISSIVE PARENTS: These parents are soft and feel it unfair to require children to obey quickly. They think it harsh to discipline for each act of defiance, so repeat themselves and give multiple warnings. And out of fear of warping their psyches, parents permit their children to resist their leadership and talk back.
The result:
Children grow up without the ability to say NO to their passions and do what’s right. They are so narcissistic that for them -- expedience trumps integrity. They cheat in school, get away with what they can at work, and contribute to the rise in crime. Because they think it is their right to speak their mind, they are mouthy and outspoken towards those in authority. Since they grew up without serious consequences for misbehavior, they confuse indulgence with love and tend to be soft on crime.
