Gregor, grampa and All:
Just a parenting prayer! Yesterday, I dealt something I have not seen in all my years of teaching! I went with my son, to practice soccer, with one of the boys on his team, his little brother and Parents. I was concerned about the boys' behavior, that they have not been taught to share. My son points it out, to me.
But, when I was leaving, the Mother asked for a ride home, and she planned to leave her two sons with the Father, to practice. The youngest son, almost 5, chased the car, and she jumped out and started screaming and swearing at him, to stay there. My son observed the entire thing.
I want to be "Salt and Light," and I will have to discuss with with her at a different time, but I feel compelled to pray for that family, and I cannot let my son be around that behavior. You all can pray for that family. I usually surround him, with role models.
