Second Commandment
Parents must harmonize authority with gentleness. The idea that the father should be as an ordinary friend as possible to his children is idiotic.

Children, looking at their parents, begin to form an idea about who God is and so authority must be maintained, but always with gentleness, never correcting without giving an explanation to the child — why this is being said to him; why this or that should not be done; or why something else should be done instead.
