A perfect parent would raise a terrible son.
If you’re like many of us, when your head hits the pillow at night, your mind buzzes with the ways you could have been a better parent to your son.
But Ali Worthington, author of the book Remaining You While Raising Them, says to stop beating yourself up. She says even a perfect parent can raise a son who doesn’t know how to apologize or deal with a friend’s bad day. Our creator God is so kind and powerful that he can use even our weaknesses as parents to teach our sons valuable life lessons.
So the next time you feel you’ve messed up as a parent, apologize to your son, and know that God can use even your worst days for good.
