Chapter 21 — Never Punish a Child in Anger
From Training the Child’s Heart: Practical Hints for Christian Parents by Henry Clay Trumbull.
In this excerpt, Trumbull explains why discipline given in anger is always wrong, even when a child clearly deserves correction. He shows how calm, thoughtful correction honors the justice of God, protects your authority, and teaches your child what it truly means to do right. You’ll hear practical insight on the difference between stopping harmful behavior and delivering punishment, and how self-control in a parent leads to growth, trust, and lasting heart change in a child.
