Children, Obey Your Parents-- Ephesians 6:1-3
There are wrong reasons for obedience.
In some cultures heredity is a reason for obedience.
In other cultures the reason may be based but on the belief
that if you don't properly venerate your ancestors,
they'll come back to haunt you.

Bill Cosby used to say:
"I brought you into this world and I can take you out!"
That might bring some laughs, but that is not a good reason for obeying parents.
