Hi, folks. I wanted to start a conversation to find out what parents and kids are struggling with recently. I'd like to help, if I could.
Blessings,

"Let not many of you become teachers, my brethren, knowing that as such we will incur a stricter judgment."If you can manage that you'll already have started off better than most.
Life functions on relationships.
Relationships function on goals, boundaries, and expectations.
If you don't know where you want to go and don't know how to get there... you won't.
Parenting is a relationship.
It takes at least two healthy relationships to have one healthy relationship.
Core principles.
"Let no unwholesome word proceed from your mouth, but only such a word as is good for edification according to the need of the moment... (Eph. 4:29)
"The soothing tongue is a tree of life" (Pr. 15: 4)
"To answer before listening — that is folly and shame... From the fruit of their mouth a person’s stomach is filled;with the harvest of their lips they are satisfied. The tongue has the power of life and death, and those who love it will eat its fruit." (Pr. 18:13, 20-21)
"Understand this, my dear [parents]: You must all be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to get angry."
"Do nothing from rivalry or conceit, but in humility count others more significant than yourselves. Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others." (Phil. 2:3-4 ESV)Works for parenting, too.
