Yep, you're really good at stating the things I'm not saying. You might have guessed from my chosen occupation that I do not hate children. I do hate it when parents pretend the precocious is precious, or that disrespectfulness is passed off as playfulness. Your child is not the center of the universe, not even YOUR universe (or certainly should not be), and if you teach him that he is you have completely failed to prepare him for the real world (the ultimate goal of parenting). The father who fails to discipline his child (yes, including corporeal) hates his child, according to the scriptures of all three major world religions.
