A wise son makes a father glad, But a foolish son is a grief to his mother.Proverbs 10:1Parenting is tough enough without prideful willfulness and our proclivity to sin mucking things up.
When you do have wisdom on an issue and you watch your kids still choose a painful path, where is the line between reality discipline (letting the natural consequences do the teaching) and not being a party to their self destruction? (Prov. 19:18)
This is where I am struggling today, Lord. I pray you still my desire to micro manage. Help me hear from you to know what is right for my teenage children, and to know what I should do for where they are at in their growth. Teach me how to do this right. Amen.
