Pastor Dave Hoffman-Fear of the Lord

This is also the stage where little Johnny or Debra begins to learn self-control, which, at this stage, I define as obedience without understanding. Whether they understand or not, they cannot touch the stove! Whether they understand it or not, they cannot go out into the street, hit their mom, or talk back. I’ll always explain the good reasons why I make the demands I do, but my children must obey even if they do not understand or agree with my explanations. If you are lenient and permissive here, then their will is only going to grow stronger, and selfcontrol will be harder and more costly in the next stage.
