Think of it as giving your kid admin privileges to the family OS.
Daily life? They’re the user, you’re the server, fulfilling every request. Bedtime is a suggestion, not a scheduled task. “No” is a 404 error you rarely deploy.
Long-term issue? They expect the real world to run on the same open-source, user-led code. When they hit a firewall—a teacher’s deadline, a boss’s directive—they haven’t developed the script to cope with “Permission Denied.” The system crashes.
Permissive parenting means few rules, lots of freedom, and rarely enforcing consequences. Kids may get their way often. Long term, it can lead to poor self-control, trouble respecting boundaries, and issues with authority. Consistent structure is usually healthier.
