Wally and I hosted a parenting seminar at our house Sunday. No...we were not the speakers...we invited 2 couples from our church that have raised 7 boys between them. Not just any boys...boys that love God and their families. Boys that are respectful, fun and would make any mom proud to have as a son-in-law.
We asked them "How did you raise such great boys?" For the next 2 hours they shared some wonderful advice with us and 2 other couples. It was a great time full of advice, great food and alot of laughter.
Here are some highlights:
1) It is never too late to influence your sons. It is never too late to implement rules and to enforce responsibilities.
2) We are their parents...not their friends
3) Pray is everything
4) You must be the one that talks to your sons about girls, dating, relationships. We can't leave it up to anyone else.
5) Remember grace
