Set an example of positive hope in all life situations. As children grow up, they need to find their boundaries. It's an essential part of growing up that parents or guardians must correct and indeed punish their children. Too often we feel that to take a disciplinary measure represents a failure on our part. This is part of our misconception about failure.
Failure is only bad if it remains failure.
Failure is an opportunity to learn, to improve, to develop, to grow. Correct discipline guides your child along this path. Well-considered and properly administered discipline is first choice. He said, My son, don't be angry when the Lord punishes you. Don't be discouraged when He has to show you where you are wrong.
