I am a child, there are other children
around me, I have seen parents who discipline their children tagged ‘wicked’.
And I’ve also seen or heard of parents who would rather ignore the child than
to be called names by people or even the child.
I
know and believe the bible is balanced enough, specifying the parents’ and
children’s dos and don’ts. If you follow the word of God as a mother, you
shouldn’t have any regret. On your side, you won’t allow or provoke your
children to sin, you won’t overlook their evil ways, you will rebuke and
correct them in love.
Different children with different ways
of training, your best friend beats her kids doesn’t mean you should beat yours
and your elder sister doesn’t even touch her kids and they are good, doesn’t
mean yours should be untouched. Then what? Study the kid(s) and pray for the
kid(s), don’t compare them with others, don’t get too tired of correcting and
then decide to ignore them.
See training your kids as a course
given by God that you must not carry over. Do your best on the child and pray
and leave the rest to God.
