Quote by Juvenal
From where can your authority and license as a parent come from, when you who are old, do worse things?
Summary
This quote challenges the traditional notion of parental authority by questioning its basis. It highlights the irony of older individuals claiming authority as parents despite their own imperfections and mistakes. By highlighting the inconsistency between parents' actions and expectations for their children, the quote promotes the idea that authority as a parent should be earned through consistent and righteous behavior, rather than being something inherently granted with age.
