Walking Therein

Child Discipline - Well-Written.

   We have been having some pretty serious dicussion lately, so I decided to visit my dear friend, Mrs.Diamond's , blog. She is truly a wonderful, loving lady and Mother. And, she is in Canada - which is cool.

   The post I found at her blog is truly inspiring and much-needed. I will post a few tidbits of it, and you can visit her to read the rest of Keeping Our Children's Hearts! It is well worth your time.

"Eph 6:4 And, ye fathers, provoke not your children to wrath: but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord.

Discipline is not merely punishment. I think a lot of people get mixed up right there. 

Pro 22:6 Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.

Spanking may improve a child's behavior and for that reason many parents think it's worked!  But if it hasn't touched and changed their hearts..."

This is one of my favorite parts of her entry:

"Sending a child to their room alone for long periods of time for a "timeout" is simply creating a breeding ground for sulky, brooding attitudes."

She also talks about expectations of a child in the Worship Service, which is also near and dear to my heart.  Take a look-see.
