Proverbs 22:6 Posted: 23 Jan 2012 02:10 AM PST Train a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not turn from it. I have seen this play out so true. Both in my life and in my kid's lives. It is a 2 edged sword though. The downside is, of course if they are taught by example, bad habits, bad character, etc. But it also seems to me that other passages in the bible seem to say that we are all born with that natural "bent" or tendency to want to run away from God and disobey our parents to some extent. So parents, lighten up on yourself! it's not all your fault, nor can we take all the credit when they do well.
