//EDU: Psychcentral's Guide to Screwing Up Your Children

Psychcentral went ahead and wrote this nifty little article on how to traumatise and damage your child's mental health for a long time. It's good that other websites are finally starting to catch up and good that I no longer  have to write it. Maybe in the future everything I'm thinking will be written for me (cross fingers). As for my favorite method- it would have to be:

"3. Ask your child to solve your problems
Share all of your worries, concerns, and relationship problems on a daily basis. Ask them for advice and act helpless in the face of solving your own adult concerns about work, money, relationships — and especially sex.
Always present yourself as incapable of taking care of yourself and your own problems. This will ensure that your child will feel emotionally burdened by your issues."
Road to being a villain carved of stone.
