How come adults get to boss children around?
It stands to reason that someone who has been around years longer than you might have some experience that you haven't had yet. We boss you around because you don't always know what to do and how to do it. I do think there are better ways to do it so the child still has some dignity left, but other adults aren't that considerate. Just remember what you like and then when its your turn to boss, do it the right way.

Why do PARENTS boss their children around?
it depends how you look at it. to you it seems parents are "bossing their children around" which I once thought too, but after I got over myself I realized my parents were only trying to teach me right from wrong and instill their values on me. it's not that they're trying to rule your life, they're just trying to discipline and protect you. if you want your parents' respect and "have your own life", then start doing things to earn it and show that they've done their job.
Why do parents boss around their children?
Because they came to us with nothing, and keep trying to kill themselves. Parenting is the eternal struggling of keeping them 1. Alive, 2. Safe 3. Healthy and 4. Happy.When they are babies that can't sleep on their belly/back/side … depending on when they are born. You absolutely have to ALWAYS put them on their back/belly/side or they'll just stop breathing and die.Then… they don't always swallow correctly so they could choke. And die.Also, they can't have water. Too much water and they drown. But you have to bathe them- where they spend the whole bath trying to drown themselves.Then they start wiggling and try to jump/push off out of your arms - they're like little kamikaze pilots… or lemmings.Also, they like to be bounced, but too much and you'll get “shaken baby syndrome” and they'll die.Then they start crawling- and trying to put everything in their mouth… or the electrical sockets. Everything you own instantly becomes poisonous/ a choking hazard or could crush them to death.Then.. They walk. But just for about 20 minuted before they run … into traffic.Heaven forbid you have animals- if you do, they'll spend the next 3 years trying to love/eat each other.“Stop!” or “be careful” or “don't hit your sister” or “don't bite the dog” are not skills that we, as humans, come with. We have to be taught. Along with literally everything else we know.And that is only a small sampling of the types of things that will kill them. Then there is the next step of worry- all the things that will scar them-Physically or emotionally.And all the contradictory advice! And the worry of everything that has/will/and will continue to go wrong. Are you fast enough? Strong enough? Smart enough?At some point the baby will be All Grown Up, and we continue to worry. Not because the child isn't trustworthy, or smart, or anything like that- just because worry has become a habit that has kept us all alive.

Why do white parents let their kids boss them?
Why do they let them talk back to them and boss them around? Does it really take a program like this just to discipline them? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bCO05NoDz... or are they just too scared to give their child a good whoopin. You know if that was a black parent, that child would have got a good *** whoopin.
What causes parents or guardians and general to be so condescending toward their children?
You may be confused about the meaning of “condescension”. It means patronizing superiority, and it is only disrespectful when the recipient considers themselves a peer.Because you mentioned “guardian”, I must assume that you are referring to dependent youth.If the parent or guardian is not superior, and does not serve as the patron of the child, then the child is being badly served.The adult must be the leader of the relationship and must have the ability to direct the child’s development. The adult must also “condescend” to meet the child where they are at to guide them forward. The child is not a developed adult where they could do otherwise.Parents are “above” their children and they deserve the respect, dignity and recognition of this status until the child is an adult.
Why do parents boss kids around?
because parents want to make their kids slaves it's sickening
How do American parents respond when kids say "you are not the boss of me"?
At the end of the day you are the boss of your kids. They are utterly dependent on you for support and survival. If you want to, you can leverage this power and force them to do pretty much whatever you want.I think that's pretty dumb though.What the kid is basically saying is "I'm feeling disrespected and like my feelings and desires aren't being taken into consideration." How would you feel if you felt that way? How would you want the person to respond? If they said "Yes I am, now do what you're told," how will you react in the future? You'll probably become passive aggressive. You'll probably want to rebel. You'll probably grow to resent them.How about if they responded with "OK, what would you like to do?" You'd probably appreciate their consideration for your feelings. That doesn't mean you, as the parent, necessarily do exactly what the kid wants, but negotiation would be good. You can set boundaries and let them know what's reasonable without accommodating the unreasonable.People aren't really that complicated, especially kids. They are walked over, ignored, ordered around, considered lesser humans, and generally treated in ways that if an adult were treated, would be a national emergency with endless protests and lawsuits. If you just defy that norm and treat them with a modicum of respect, they open up to you and love you like no one else. They just want to know you give a shit about how they feel. Once they know that, they'll tend to be a lot more open to what you think they should do. I think that's a far better way to persuade someone than threats of punishment and appeals to authority.
