The parent cannot yield to the authority of the child. Much authority has shifted in our generation to children who do not have the maturity to make sound judgment. That is why so many children are insecure. There are children who assume superiority over their parents. They flaunt independence from their parents.
Unregulated lives can lead to destructive behavior patterns.
Children must submit to the policies of the parents if they operate under the divine institution of the family properly. In every young person's heart is a spirit of rebellion. We are born that way. We are born with an anarchistic spirit. We want to reign on the throne.
