[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Brushing up on the parable of the prodigal son might be helpful. I'm not Christian but I've always liked the relatability of it, I see it in many families and agree with supporting your kid who needs help.[/quote] I agree with this. Except, the prodigal son is an analogy for God accepting you back when you return. It's not really a reliable parenting method. Behavior is predictable. Bad behavior is rewarded. Parents get more of it. Good behavior is ignored. Parents get less of it. Some parents have favorites and just like one child more than another. [/quote]
