in my life i've heard a lot of people saying things about their kids here and there like
"what would u do if your son was gay?" or "i'm getting my daughter birth control because she's going to do what she's going to do" i always disagree with these sort of statements.. it starts with you as a parent a big purpose of marriage itself is to bring up God-fearing children.. so try to keep your family in tact, keep your family in order, keep them under the Word of God, and make sure everyone knows their place and role the main scripture that plays in my head when i hear people and their fearful statements about their kids is: proverbs 22:6 Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it. i hear a lot of people with kids saying things that are fearful concerning their children- they certainly aren't statements of faith they say things that seem to insinuate that they have no control or power or influence over the way their child will turn out.. that just isn't true.. the whole "your kids are going to rebel whether you like it or not" thing doesn't have to be true.. even the prodigal son who fell off track came back to his dad because at the end of the day he still knew and saw righteousness as a child i feel like a lot of the people who say their kids are going to rebel, are in fact rebellious people themselves.. and they are just saying "i know its coming, because i know what i did when i was their age" even with that- you can repent of your youthful sins and turn it around and break that off your family so your kid doesn't come home with a pack of cigarettes, or so your kid doesn't end up falling in with the wrong crowd, or getting some kind of std this is just something i wanted to address... overall i feel people need to really consult the bible concerning how to raise their kids because it will alleviate the fear and worry
