CHILDREN - FAMILY RELATIONSHIPS

What can be heard by little ears should not be spoken by big mouths.
Children have more need for role models than for critics.
Parents who teach their children industry provides them with a fortune.
"It is not easy to straighten in the oakthe crook
that grew in the sapling."
"Parents should work together as efficiently
as two bookends."

Family Relationships
Ephesians 6:1 Children, obey your parents in the Lord [that is, accept their guidance and discipline as His representatives], for this is right [for obedience teaches wisdom and self-discipline]. 2 Honor [esteem, value as precious] your father and your mother [and be respectful to them]—this is the first commandment with a promise— 3 so that it may be well with you, and that you may have a long life on the earth.

4 Fathers, do not provoke your children to anger [do not exasperate them to the point of resentment with demands that are trivial or unreasonable or humiliating or abusive; nor by showing favoritism or indifference to any of them], but bring them up [tenderly, with lovingkindness] in the discipline and instruction of the Lord.
