If you never have headaches through rebuking your children-you shall have plenty of heartaches when they grow up!
It is a common thing for a little child to be the idol of the family.
Wherever that is the case, there is a rod laid up in store in that house!
You cannot make idols of your children, without finding out, sooner or later, that God makes them into rods with which He will punish you for your idolatry!
Pro 13:24 He that spareth his rod hateth his son: but he that loveth him chasteneth him betimes.
Pro 19:18 Chasten thy son while there is hope, and let not thy soul spare for his crying.
Pro 22:15 Foolishness is bound in the heart of a child; but the rod of correction shall drive it far from him.
Pro 23:13 Withhold not correction from the child: for if thou beatest him with the rod, he shall not die.
Pro 29:17 Correct thy son, and he shall give thee rest; yea, he shall give delight unto thy soul.
