Proverbs 22: 6 AMP
“Train up a child in the way he should go [teaching him to seek God’s wisdom and will for his abilities and talents], even when he is old he will not depart from it.”
I can remember my dad always saying this to me “this is going to hurting me more than it hurts you” and then he would spank me. I would cry and cry and stay in my bedroom. I was embarrassed and angry all at the same time. But I can tell you I would not do that thing again.
Today I see people have a conversation with their children warning them and that’s as far as it goes. I actually believe a good spanking changes the child's bad attitude and gets them tuned in again. I don’t believe you should spank them more than 3 times.
Spare the rod and spoil the child doesn’t work for me. I never spoke to my children but I would spank them and get the nonsense out of the way.
Prayer
Lor,d please guide us as parents when it comes to our children. Let us act fairly
