TWENTY WAYS TO RUIN YOUR CHILDREN

1.      Spoil them by giving them everything they want.

2.      Relieve them of all responsibilities by making all their decisions for them.

3.      Nag and yell at them when they do wrong, but never spank them (it’s out of date).

4.      Foster an over dependence upon you so that drugs and/or alcohol can replace you when they are older.

5.      Criticize each other openly so that your children will be totally confused over disciplinary matters.

6.      Wife: dominate your husband so that your children will have no strong father image to respect.

7.      Husband: blow up at everybody but refuse to help anyone with their problems.

8.      Tell them how disappointed you are in their behavior, but don’t try to correct it.

9.      Don’t assign any responsibilities through chores, etc. (you might overwork them).

10.  Praise them for their looks or talent but not for their character.

11.  Encourage your daughter to wear seductive clothing.

12.  Reward your children when they are sick.

13.  Don’t keep your promises to them (they might believe in you too much).

14.  Never show any outward signs of love or affection, such as hugs and kisses.

15.  Keep dirty magazines around the house (so your kids can grow up faster).

16.  Overreact with extreme sympathy to every cut and scratch.

17.  Talk all the time and never listen to them.

18.  Be preoccupied with your own needs and neglect your children.

19.  Never pray out loud with your children.

20.  Get a divorce.
