My little girl has a new friend. They're just 6 mos apart.

He doesn't always want to share, that's o.k.,

I don't 'always' make mine.

She started throwing her crayons, for no reason,

other than to watch them fly.

Giving the attitude he does; so I told her,

we are to show by example.

She's picking up his bad manners, attitudes,

what-ever you wanna call it.

I'm thinking of cutting off the time she is exposed to him.

(I've started to baby-sit him, periodically and I can start working with him, minding his manners, etc...I have spoke to both parents, the dad said, spank him if I have to. The Mother, and I 'talk' about it more. Like I told both of them, that he gave me a 'snappy' retort. So, I told him he isn't allowed to speak to me / adults like that. That he should say yes ma'am. later, on his own he did. He is a sweet boy, but, he is a daddy's boy-rough n tough)

But, she's needs to learn to play with others.

They are both, the only child in his/ her home.

She needs to not pick up his traits / habits;

but, rather teach him, by example.

And that's what I told her; and then got to thinking....

I am raising her by the word of Jehovah, through the Bible.

We are still in the world. Jehovah's servants, know of which I speak;

and those who are Associated with J's W's.

After, I said that to her, I got to thinking....

we have the knowledge of God,

we have the responsibility to show by example.

Where is this Scripture that is given, to those,

who have understanding; the responsibility to teach others ?

And I believe it is alot more than just 1 Scripture...?...?

I believe I know it.

But, I need, want, desire the input of the others in my Christian faith.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~...

For anyone who thinks this is in the wrong category;

the Holy Scriptures, definately speaks on bringing up / raising children.
