Do not do for your children what they ought to do for themselves, but help them to help themselves. Do not allow them to trample on the rights of others in order to gratify their own selfish desires.

Teach them to respect the rights of others; but don't forget under any circumstances that they also have rights which should be respected.

You can no more compel the love and admiration and respect of your child by constantly antagonizing, and finding fault with him, and 'showing him the unlovely side of your character on the one hand, or, on the other, pandering to every unreasonable whim, than a young man could compel a girl to love him by adopting similar means.
