Be Fun for Your Children to Be With
God said:
Fun is not a flighty unimportant part of life. It is an essential part of life. Children are supposed to have fun. Life is supposed to be fun. As it is, children are sometimes chastised for having fun as if the purpose of your raising your child is to squelch them.
If I were to give advice to parents, I would say:
Have fun with your children. You, the parent, have a good time. This is an exquisite time with your child. It will not come again.
This is a double-whammy, because as you have fun, you ensure that your children do.
When you and your child have fun together, you are raising your child well. You don’t need to think so sternly about raising your children. When your children have fun and enjoy with you, you are raising your children well. They will listen to you and respect you and, in turn, be loving and gracious to you and to everyone.
You are introducing your children to the world. Make the world a friendly place for your children, and they will know friendliness.
You are not spoiling your child by allowing him happiness.
As a parent, you need to get away from the idea that your child has to perform as the best behaved child at home or away. You are not spoiling your child by accepting and loving him. This is not letting your child go wild. Give your child the freedom to be happy.
