For parents, we are called to:

"Train a child in the way he should go, and when he is old, he will not turn from it"
                                                                                -- Proverbs 22:6

These days, there seems to be more insight into the psychology of raising children, and sometimes, even conflicting theories from considered authorities. Times are challenging, and raising children is an experience that doesn't get much easier, just different. One rule of thumb that hasn't lost its ground on advice is this famous proverb. There are no perfect earthly parents, but only one perfect Parent. To set all "trains" of parenting on this perfect Parent is a strong pathway for teaching love.

This poem portrays a sense of helpful encouragement and "reminders" in the influence of children. The day is still young...remember what it was like to be a kid?!
