    it also teaches their kid that selfish motivations and material rewards are the only things of value, and that they're worth liying, cheating, and even stealing for-- as long as you don't get caught, because right and wrong are only a matter of the consequences one may personally face. and, even then, it's a cost-benefit analysis. again, the zero-sum game.
