The Matrix

Are you trapped and don’t even know it?

The Matrix

This is the Parenting Matrix. Let us show you the way out.

The Matrix

In the 1999 film, The Matrix human beings never tried to escape their virtual reality because they never realized they were in one. Likewise many parents today don’t realize they are virtual prisoners of their own politically correct parenting techniques as well as virtual slaves to their own kids. They have bought into our psychology-induced system of parenting rather than that of a biblical worldview.

Though scripture says we shouldn’t think of ourselves as greater than we ought and that children should honor their parents, popular psychology hails man’s self-esteem. Also, the falsely fluffed “everyone is a winner” philosophy for our kids is a recipe for entitlement that rules our day.
