The Solution For Day Care

Train Up a Child in the Way He Should Go

Train Up a Child in the Way He Should Go

Comments 3 comments

Written By Ken Alexander We were accused of being excessive in our discipline actions by those who were into the gentle/permissive parenting movement. Flicking a cheek and making a child comply by picking up the raisins she threw onto the ground because she did not want to eat them are considered cardinal sins worthy of purgatory by some, yet ask the child who is now a well-adjusted, wonderful mom of her own, and she laughs and understands how important it…

This is why we must be reminded often. I don’t…
