"Whoever spares the rod hates their children, but the one who loves their children is careful to discipline them." – Proverbs 13:24 (NIV)
Correction is a vital part of parenting, but it must be done with love, wisdom, and patience. Many parents struggle with discipline, fearing they may be too harsh or, on the other hand, too lenient. However, the Bible teaches that godly correction is an act of love—it helps children grow in wisdom, character, and obedience to God.
