Enabling is probably one of the most insidious sins out there
This is is what the Western Church has called "scandal." Its also another example of how the English language has drifted. Scandal is considered a "mortal sin" by Roman Catholics precisely because enabling or encouraging others to behave in a detrimental way is evil.
Correct, and doubly so for children. Parenting is taken VERY seriously among real Catholics, because it is a solemn and serious duty to guide your little ones along the right path. Less so among Churchians, who you'll find frequently espouse postmodernist bullshit and exhibit a derision of this duty. I'm very thankful for my own parents, who were not the disinterested and absentee parents as were so many of their generation.

Millstones. That's what I worry about.
