This blog is a straight-forward look at one of the things this world needs more of...great dads. I think those words, "I'm your daddy" are some of the most wished for by children all over the world. Why are children left or neglected by fathers who have ignored their responsibility to their children? It's definitely not right, and this blog hopes to provide good, clear, encouraging, and challenging information for all dads and those affected by the choices of their fathers.

i have a friend who has some questions on parenting throughout early childhood, namely "how do you direct a young heart (under the age of two) towards a correct response after not getting their way?" (i.e. the young child is not given the object that it wants and begins crying.) my friend does not want to do anything to encourage that kind of behavior but also wants to love and comfort the young child. can you recommend any thoughts or recourses that might shed light on a happy medium which i offer as encouragement to my friend?
It is a very difficult thing to try and direct a young heart of that age. Mostly, at those ages, it is much more about being consistent to show them what it not allowed. It takes young children a while to get it firmly placed into their brains as to what is not allowed. This part of the process is what the Bible calls "driving foolishness out of the child" in Proverbs. The use of "the rod" in Proverbs is the consistent thought at this level of the child's development. As with any sort of correction and discipline, a soft, loving voice must be used to continually build that feeling of being loved in the child's mind.
helpful advice, as expected!
keep the blogs rollin...
