Show Notes:

Principles:
1. It’s not what we do as parents, but rather what we don’t do, that provokes our kids to anger.
2. We are to be a loving authority in our child’s life, not their best friend.
3. Children eventually become angry if you let them believe that life is all about them, and there are no consequences for their choices.
4. One of the ways God drives us to grace is by allowing us to experience the pain of living a rebellious life.
5. God wants you to be a present parent who lovingly disciplines.
6. You are going to have your child on the path to destruction if you continue to let them do what they want to do without consequences.
7. If parents do not discipline their kids, the world will and it won’t be because it loves them.
8. The biggest mistake is not allowing kids to experience little consequences, because later, they will be angry about the larger, unavoidable consequences of an undisciplined life.
9. Admonishment is not enough as fools advance in their sin.
