As a coach, I find kids love to test the limits, and once they know them, our relationship becomes more fun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n One of my favorite students, who I\u2019ve taught for years, still pushes the limits with me, always seeking new ways to test me. But I love our blossoming relationship. She used to come to class and would never smile; now, her face lights up when she walks on the court. We still spend our lessons arguing, but she trusts my boundaries and knows they come with only good intentions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Kids don\u2019t know unless we teach them. I can\u2019t imagine the difficulties in raising children to become independent. Making children self-sufficient requires discipline and sacrifice. As always, I pray for parents as they navigate the stormy waters that come with children.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Following Jesus teaches us how to love others, not enable them, and help them become the best version of themselves. Applying Christ\u2019s teachings helps us learn to navigate life\u2019s storms. Live fully in the Son\u2019s shadow.<\/p>\n\n\n Lord, as always, I pray for parents and children. Please guide and direct them to discipline their kids and experience enjoyable behavior. Strengthen family bonds with healthy boundaries and hearts dedicated to You. IJNIP.
