Child misbehaving? Why you might be the problem. NOD ep47
from No Ordinary Days · host Sean Allen
It's hard to admit when we're wrong. For some parents it's almost impossible. And yet, when our children exhibit disobedience or rebellious behavior, an honest assessment will often reveal that much of what we're seeing is the result of our failure in some area of their life. Have we expected too much or too little of them? Have we been too strict or too lenient? Have we neglected to spend time with them - to listen to them? In many cases, their misbehavior is, in fact, a natural reaction to these errors on our part and are their only way to draw attention to them. That is, if we have ears to hear and if our hearts are willing to accept responsibility and course correct for their benefit.
