(This is, of course, spoken in jest, sort of)

Most everyone is aware that an infant is like a sponge, soaking up most anything and everything it experiences.

The first prerequisite to raising a useless member of society is to live in the worst possible environment you can muster.

That is not to say that the material world has anything to do with it per se, as we are all aware that many of the most useless members of society come from the affluent and well-todo segment.

What you must do is show your infant as much disrespect and hatefulness towards others as you can manifest. Drink, smoke, and use as much profanity as you can. After all, you want to be an example to your child. Isn't that right?

Never show love or tenderness to one another, especially not to the young child in your care. After all, it's a tough world out there and you wouldn't want your child to grow up being, loving and caring, now would we?

If your child wants something, be sure to buy it for them; maybe that way you won't have to pay any extra attention to them, and that way too, they won't have to learn to use their abilities; a sure way to cultivate a selfish, self-centered person, who places value on things, rather than love and self-respect.

Be sure that when you do pay attention to your child, that it be full of malice, hatred and is abusive, if not physically, then definitely emotionally.. Make sure that your child is afraid of you. Everyone knows that when someone fears, that fear will, in time, turn to hate. It's pretty simple really; just be your wonderful self and all the rest will fall into place. You can enjoy years and years enduring your wonderful prodigy and look forward to your wonderful grand children, who are most likely learning the same lessons you taught your child.
