#1213: Fully Charged

Every night, you make sure your phone is plugged into its charger. If you forget, you know that your phone won’t last through the next day. Your son is much the same way. If you don’t make sure his “battery” is charged at home, he will struggle to sit still and focus while he is at school. Make sure your boy has plenty of opportunities each day to do fun and fulfilling things. Create an obstacle course for him in the backyard. Give him a bunch of cardboard boxes and help him build a fort. Take him for a long bike ride. Chores and school are important, but let your boy be a boy. Then he will be “fully charged” to tackle life. For ideas on raising boys to be godly men,  visit Trail Life USA or RaisingGodlyBoys.com.
