Parenting

Isn’t it absurd to send children out to jobs and to school, and to school all you can to prepare them for these, and yet not to ‘bring them upon in the chastening and admonition of the Lord (Eph. 6:4)?’ Discipline is needed, not eloquence; character, not cleverness; deeds, not words. These gain a man the kingdom.
– St John Chrysostom
