Are you your child’s friend? Disciplinarian? Coach? Mentor? The reality is that there are times for all of those things at different points in your child’s development. The problem comes when we want to be our child’s friend when they are 4…or when we treat our 17 years olds like they are 4.
**There is a time to be a disciplinarian…and a time to be their friend…it all comes down to navigating the seasons of parenting with wisdom and discernment!
Each season has its own unique difficulties and roadblocks..but each season also provides a unique pathway to blessing for the child and parent!!
