The hatred, dislike or lack of respect for children beyond what is the justified amount authority over them. This can manifest itself as denying the child certain freedoms such as choosing whether they take life saving vaccines, exploring their sexuality at their own discretion or just simply demanding unearned respect by virtue of being the adult.
