>“I have the right to teach them respect,” the parent wrote. “Again, not everyone deserves respect, empathy, honesty, kindness etc. from my children.”

People who treat others without kindness, empathy, and compassion are often miserable people. They compound their misery because of how they treat others. Think of when you hate someone and how it actually makes you feel at that time. Yes, hate is a normal human emotion, but most of us can not focus our hateful feeling for another 24/7 so we get a reprieve. These people live off hate, which I just could not fathom. And if that group of people they hate were to disappear they move on to hate another group.

I am not Christian,(I am a Buddhist) but I do know that Christ's message was one of kindness, love, honesty, empathy, and respect. These people are not Christian as they do not follow Christ's teachings.

Galatians 5:19-21

19 The acts of the flesh are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity and debauchery; 20 idolatry and witchcraft; hatred, discord, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambition, dissensions, factions 21 and envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who live like this will not inherit the kingdom of God.

So basically according to their own Bible, the one they love to quote so much they will not be inheriting the Kingdom of God.

Galatians 5:22-23
22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law.
