Dear mother, do you realize that allowing your child to disobey is a sin on your part? God calls children to submit to and obey their parents. (Ephesians 6:1, Colossians 3:20)
A child left to his own way brings his mother shame. (Proverbs 29:15)
Our culture is raising disrespectful, disobedient children, and it is being accepted as the norm. It is not acceptable in God's eyes.
Do not forsake the rules of your mother (Proverbs 1:8)
It is our job as others to raise up our children in the way they should go. If they can not obey us, how will they obey their heavenly Father?
It takes commitment, a huge amount of your time and energy, but the rewards are worth it. Not only will you be blessed by an obedient child, but your child will be blessed as well.
Immediate, first time obedience is possible. You will be weary at first, but find so much joy in your children if you persevere.
