Read Proverbs 22:6

  1. Parents: How has actually having kids changed your previously held ideas about parenting and discipline? How has the Bible changed your ideas about parenting / discipline?
     
  2. What have you learned about parenting from your parents (positive OR negative lessons)? How do you see these ideas in light of God’s Word?
     
  3. How do you and your spouse share the responsibilities for discipline? If you disagree in any particular belief(s) of discipline, how do you resolve it?
