Being a parent is tough stuff! Trying to raise a child (especially a daughter, in my case) in our society is always challenging... you want them to know enough about the world to be strong & confident & able to handle themselves when you aren't around to protect them. But you also want to always be around to shield them from the awful stuff that goes on in our world! I don't know where the happy-medium is, nor am I an expert in parenting... I just go by my own experiences & pray for guidance :)
Decisions about school, extra-curricular activities, clothes, trips... watching them grow up & want more freedoms (boys- yikes!) - - it goes on & on! I'll just keep turning to God, and that would be my best advice for fellow parents as well!
Proverbs 22:6
New International Version (NIV)
Start children off on the way they should go, and even when they are old they will not turn from it.
