25 percent of parents responding to a recent survey say they
don't discipline their children for bad behavior because they want "an easy life."A study, reported by the U.K.'s Daily Mail, says three in 10 adults admit to being a "pushover" when it comes to their kids, and more than half see themselves as more of a friend than a parent, saying they'd rather talk things out than dish out punishments....This is what happens when the family unit starts to fall apart....Discipline is not a bad thing! If we don't discipline our kids, then our kids don't discipline their kids and so on. We end up with a society of dependents who have no sense of self worth or responsibilities.
Psalm 127:3
Sons are a heritage from the LORD,
children a reward from him.
Proverbs 20:11
Even a child is known by his actions,
by whether his conduct is pure and right.
Proverbs 22:6
Train a child in the way he should go,
and when he is old he will not turn from it.
Proverbs 22:15
Folly is bound up in the heart of a child,
but the rod of discipline will drive it far from him.
