Cultivating Responsibility
I like this. Too often, the most well meaning parents do too much (work the children should do). Many others, busy with their own duties, do too little teaching. Unfortunately, this is a teaching seldom found anywhere. Psychology cultivates a "not responsible" attitude within it's own professionals, and a "don't be hard on yourself" in its counselees, so this idea is often overlooked. Church leaders often have a hard time to get the balance just right for the individual, what with so much to teach and given that teaching is mostly to groups. Senior pastors normally are taken up with too much else to do much family counseling, and in larger churches the staff is usually divided between hospital visitation on the one hand and children's ministers on the other. Let's focus on teach children a bit more. Thanks for a good word from a psychologist.
