3-24-2018 – A Word to the Wise: Parents who raise their children as friends, companions, and equals do their children a great disservice. A child does not learn correction by logic. Reasoning with a child about why certain conduct is unacceptable rarely works. A child will “why” you to death with no intent to obey. Furthermore, later relationships with authority figures will be impaired. Well did Solomon say, “By mere words a person is not disciplined, for though he understands, he will not give heed” (Proverbs 29:19).
