Episode notes
Discipline Versus Destruction
- Discipline is distinct from destruction; the Bible advocates correction, not harm.
- Discipline is meant to guide children to grow into successful, virtuous adults.
Avoid Disliking Your Child
- Never let your child do anything that makes you dislike them.
- This helps children become likable and successful in relationships with peers and adults.
Paddle 'Holster' Discipline Example
- Father Mike recalls his mother using a paddle on the wall as a disciplinary symbol.
- The paddle's presence was enough to calm misbehavior without physical action.
