"How to raise a

juvenile delinquent," by the Houston Police

Department:

1. Begin in infancy to give

the child everything he wants. In this way he will grow

up believing the world owes him a living.

2. When he picks up bad

words, laugh at him. This will make him think he's cute.

It will also encourage him to pick up cuter phrases that

will blow off the top of your head later.

3. Never give him any

spiritual training. Wait until he's 21 and let him decide

for himself.

4. Avoid the use of the

word "wrong." He may develop a guilt complex.

This will condition him to believe later, when he is

arrested for stealing a car, that society is against him

and he is being persecuted.

5. Pick up everything he

leaves lying around - books, shoes, clothing. Do

everything for him so he will be experienced in throwing

all responsibility to others.

6. Let him read any printed

matter he can get his hands on. Be careful that the

silverware and drinking glasses are sterilized, but let

his mind feast on garbage.

7. Quarrel frequently in

the presence of your children. In this way they will not

be too shocked when the home is broken up later.

8. Give a child all the

spending money he wants. Never let him earn his own. Why

should he have things as tough as you had them?

9. Satisfy his every

craving for food, drink, and comfort. See that every

sensual desire is gratified. Denial may lead to harmful

frustration.

10. Take his part against

neighbors, teachers and policeman. They are all

prejudiced against your child.

11. When he gets into real

trouble, apologize for yourself by saying, "I never

could do anything with him".

12. Prepare for a life of

grief. You will be apt to have it.
