Don't push your child away!
Children are indeed God's gift to us and we are saddled with the responsibility of training them as we happen to be their custodian.
The bible affirms that train up the child in the way he should go, and when he grows up he will not depart from it.
We live in a world that expects children to be perfect, we tell them that we have high expectations of them forgetting that they are humans and when they fall short of these expectations we take measures that breaks the spirit of the child instead of lifting.
The child now develops a rigid heart after awhile and we began to wonder the fate of our child.
The words of a wise person can soften a child's heart.
Don't say because a child is difficult in his/her ways then you push such a child to a difficult place.
Don't you know that such a child might meet difficult people along the way.
What difference will it now make in the life of such a child when such child is being pushed to the edge.
Be patient and pacify your child with edifying words and not demeaning words.
Don't drive your child into the hands of those who are ready to give your child another different view of life that might lead them to the path of destruction
You can walk your child through the journey of life, be more loving, tolerant, understanding, teachable and prayerful and your child will bring you peace and joy.
