TLP and Parenting.
How would you go about parenting with truth love and power aligned? Is that not the ultimate challenge?
Truth: How do you expose your children to truth? How do you explain ethics, reality, and society at large to a child? How many parents blatantly lie about ethics and reality to their children? How many parents pass the test of truth? How can we grow?
Love: How do you expose your children to love? How do you help them fill their lives with connection, communion, and communication? How many parents understand the difference between love and attachment? Children by nature will attach to the closest powerful human as a means of survival, how do we explain the difference between love and attachment to children? How many parents pass the love test? How can we grow?
Power: How do you expose your children to power? How do you get a child to become responsible, self-determined, focused, full of desire, and self-disciplined? Children are hardly ever taken seriously, they can easily be shown their power is meaningless compared to the authority and violence of parenting. How can you raise a child to embrace their own power? How many parents pass the power test?
Sorry if this post seems a bit contrived, I hope the rest of you can expand on my ideas and understand the importance of parenting in the human existence. Most of us have had bad parents, I believe it is a major stepping stone of growth to improve parenting.
