I...Thank you warrior hippie for that clarification. I was familiar with both versions, but I never knew that spoil is just a phrase, or a saying (I guess). Yet I think it is one that a lot of people are familiar with. I just assumed it was two different translations! That is helpful though. I appreciate you chiming in.

I like what you said about parenting being personal... and you have to look at each child individually, I think. Thanks for your wonderful series!

A comment about #1 - The word...Great explanations!<br /><br />A comment about #1 - The words "spare the rod and spoil the child" are not in the Bible. I don't know why this verse is misquoted as such (I'm not saying you are misquoting it in this post, I think you are using it as an example of what people say in regards to corporal punishment). Proverbs 13:24 actually says :<br />"Whoever spares the rod hates their children,<br /> but the one who loves their children is careful to discipline them."<br /><br />That's NIV, but no translation says anything about "spoiling" a child. And I agree with you that this verse is discussing discipline in and of itself.<br /><br /> Not to get in a big discussion, I just want to say I like your serious and this explanation of teachable parenting. :-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
