Raising Children

DO YOU UNDERSTAND? Do you understand? Your child will one day be a man. What he accomplishes will depend on how well you taught him. Carefully teach him what life is, or he won't know how to live. Every child must know when to say yes and when to say no. Don't be on an ego trip. Don't be indulgent or forget to use sound wisdom and God's whip. I know using the rod is not what our country says to do. But if you spare the rod, you'll spoil the child, and the Bible says you'll be a fool. Janet Marie Bingham
