As a parent, how would you go about raising your children to become chads?

Let's assume they have top tier looks/physical qualities. Your sons are all tall, robust, classically handsome studs with NW0 hairlines. Think the body of JJ Watt, combined with the handsome face of Chris Carmack — vintage chad.

And as for your daughters? Victoria's Secret model tier good looks.

But, as for the purpose of this thread... How would you go about raising them, to ensure healthy social development? I've been thinking about this a lot — here's what my gameplan as a parent would be.

1. Maximize social interaction from day 1.

Have them grow up in an environment where there's constant social interaction, from an extremely young age. Give them lots of siblings, so they grow up in a "Brady Bunch" type environment. They'll constantly be communicating and having disputes with their brothers and sisters... Petty quarrels about how Jimmy stole his Xbox controller — things like that.

I believe this is essential because constant, consistent social interaction is healthy and natural. It's the best way to encourage extrovert-ism. I grew up in a socially isolated environment and I can confirm it was not ideal for social development. I wish I had multiple brothers and sisters.

2. Have them interact and socialize with the opposite sex very early on

I think this is important for development. Some might disagree, but I feel it's important to understand how to interact and socialize with the opposite sex. Helps create normal social development IMO.

3. Raise them in a household of authority

I think it's important to be an authority figure as a parent — obviously. They may despise you for it, but it's necessary for healthy development. You have to be the bad guy... In time, they'll thank you for it. Especially when they become parents. I think parental authority teaches respect, and naturally develops healthy conflict resolution qualities.

You'll be the law, and they'll naturally rebel when they've come of age, which I think is healthy character development.

4. Co-ed schooling

This one I'm sure other will disagree, but I feel interaction between the sexes is vital for social development.

5. Push them into things when they're young and stupid

Fairly obvious one here, but you need to push children to do things when they're young. Their brains are too small and underdeveloped to know any better — if you don't push them into things they'll suck their thumbs and play on the iPad all day. This means get them into organized sports, or other social activities, so they can interact with other kids.

--

As of right now, those are my ideas. Esteemed members of the MISC, please give me your thoughts and criticisms regarding your beliefs on parental theory.

If your sons don't play football, baseball, and basketball at an ELITE level - you lost the game before it started.

heavily limit video games and television. This will enforce your child to take up other much more creative hobbies. If you do get video games, make sure they're creative ones where your kid has to build stuff (mario maker, minecraft, etc). I strongly believe the reason the past few generations have much more beta children is excess sources of entertainment which unload huge amounts of dopamine for doing nothing. This ****s up your brain and makes actual beneficial activities provide less much dopamine.

I agree — I believe being good at sports is key to ensuring your sons don't get bullied and picked on. It's a great platform for ensuring social success growing up.

If you can ensure they grow up with great athletic gifts — getting them into the gym early and eating healthy — you can maximize their physical development. This'll ensure, or at least give them a good chance to succeed in sports.

This is good advice. You don't want to outright takeaway these things, because it'll socially exclude them from their peers. Restriction is key IMO.

agreed but you want to avoid introducing that stuff at a young age. The earlier you introduce the worse the effects. You can easily spot bad parents as soon as you see they let their kids play with their phones/tablets as toddlers.

This 100%. Not soccer....not tennis (only exception is lacrosse in the NE and hockey in the northern cold states). Not even wrestling.

Lacrosse and soccer players in my state were baseball basketball football rejects. They knew it, I knew it.

I was a baseball star as a kid teen and it made my life so easy. Was never ever ever ever bullied. Not once.

This thread is full of cope. Being a Chad is 90% genetic.
It was all just satire. Sorry if I offended anyone with my trolling and sickening posts. Peace and love to everyone.

Yesterday was opening night of Pee Wee football season and I have a little team going. LOVED seeing these boyos yell and scream and be violently aggressive and learn to bond with each other. It's so natural for them once you hit that switch.

Young boys are so unbelievably conditioned to be passive and meek these days. Violence is never the answer! Don't raise your voice! Football is one of the last places where you can let boys naturally develop into alpha men.

otherwise get involved in baseball EARLY. baseball players can be many different types of body types and ethnicities (asians and Hispanics do well too). Just hire them a hitting coach and get them swinging in the cages early on.

pitching is more genetic though

Meanwhile, I'm sure you ended up making hundreds of millions as a professional football or baseball player. Also, unless things have changed since I was in school, Football and Wrestling are different seasons. No clue about baseball.
