"Do not let your children do anything that makes you dislike them." —Dr. Jordan B. Peterson There are many ideas swirling around in the marketplace of ideas about how parents should raise their kids.

One popular school of thought (popularized initially by French thinker Jean-Jacques Rousseau) says that children are innocent until corrupted by society. In the 5th chapter of his bestselling book, 12 Rules for Life, Jordan Peterson shreds that idea and lays out psychological advice for parents who want to raise well-adjusted children who respect others and can function well in society.

In today's Sons of Thunder episode, Joel and Parker break down Dr. Peterson's thoughts and scrutinize them from a biblical perspective.
