Telling Your Kids that They are a Constant Disappointment to You

[DaShi]

I beginning to doubt that this will be something that they will thank me for later. Perhaps, it is still something we can laugh about later. Opinions?

Tell them they're disappointments whenever they don't get straight A's on their report card. Asian kids seem motivated.

Honestly, it hasn't been taking much lately.

If the child is a constant disappointment, it means the parents have done a poor job.

A great way to turn them into unmotivated adults.
A great way to make them loathe you.

Try some praise when they do well.

It would take a certain kind of special parent to use this to motivate children.

I do not mean special in a kind way.

Them = disappointment (you are a sick person, that be a major mindf#ck)
Their actions or lack of effort, etc., okay.

QFT. Children should be given praise when they do well, and correctly gently (if possible) when they do poorly.

That post is very unclear.

Soft children.

I have learned a lot about interacting with other entities from Cesar Millan. Always make sure they are in a calm submissive state before giving them food or affection. If they are acting up, tie them to a treadmill until they're exhausted. Learn how to make them show respect by clawing their neck or kicking their butt if they don't respond properly to "tssssstttt". And remember to be the pack leader!
