If you are thinking that your career and hobbies are taking time away from your kids, you ought to repent.

Don’t Like

Truth be told, too many parents are more devoted to their careers and hobbies than their families.

When You Like and Love Your Kids

So what should a person like this do to find the peace and contentment that’s still missing in their lives?

The first thing is to repent. One of the problems is that this parent has helped produce kids he actually doesn’t like. Staying busy and away from the kids is a catharsis. But so is taking time to raise kids that you actually like.

I’m not saying these parents don’t love their kids. I’m sure they do. Training and disciplining kids in those early years yield kids we can not only love but actually like. Camping out in the book of Proverbs is a great way to make it all a reality.
