    The more you try to overtly meddle the more the kid will be convinced of their beliefs, reactionaries thrive off disagreement and arguments.

    Get them something normal, perhaps something the connects with nature. Your goal should be to get them to connect with you and the rest of the family, you want them too feel like they are part of the in-group.

        My brother/sister/nonbinary sibling in christ “make your kids feel included in the family” is absolutely not in any way psychopathic manipulation.

        • In the context of this thread part of the in group would imply a political in group which would be psychopathic manipulation. Ur implication was very simply “make your kids feel included in the family as long as they agree with my ideology”. Do not change the meaning of what u said post saying it. Do not bullshit on my leg and call it a brown kitten.

            I’m not the guy you originally replied to. I’m a random third party that read what he said, read what you said, and then commented what I did.

            I didn’t read “you want them to feel like part of the in-group” as political. I read it as “you want them to feel like part of the family”

            At no point was the qualifier, “as long as they agree with your ideology” included. You invented that yourself.

        How do you contact brain washing without other brain washing?

        They’re not going to logic out of a belief that they didn’t logic into.
