		Parenting with Unconditional Love is Done Intentionally
	
	
		 
	
	
		 
	
		
	
		But now faith, hope, love, abide (in the sphere of) these three; but the greatest of these is (unconditional) love.
	
		 
	
		QUESTION FOR REFLECTION
	
		Does your Christianity show up in the parenting of your children?
	
		 
	
		
	
		Therefore there is now no condemnation for those who are in (union with) Christ Jesus.
	
		 
	
		PARENTING
	
		Phase 1
	
		INCULCATE INSTRUCTION
	
		
	
		Train up (dedicate yourself to) a child in the way he should go (narrow his path), even when he is old he will not depart (turn away) from it.
	
		 
	
		DISCIPLINE
	
		Training in a character pattern.
	
		 
	
		PARENTING
	
		Phase 2
	
		HELP TEENS BECOME ADULTS
	
		 b
	
		…bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord.
	
		 
	
		PARENTING

		For this reason a man shall leave his father and his mother, and be joined to his wife; and they shall become one flesh.

		STILL LIVING WITH YOUR PARENTS AT 30? 
	
		Get a life!

		Children who won’t leave home are being fools to themselves. And parents should stop mollycoddling them.
	
		 
	
		STILL LIVING WITH YOUR PARENTS AT 30? 
	
		Get a life!
	
		by Barbara Ellen
	
		 
	
		I tried to understand, I really did, but it was difficult after reading the latest report on adult children still living at home.  Almost three million of the UK’s 20 to 34 year-olds, approaching one in three men and one in seven women, are still living at home.
	
		 
	
		STILL LIVING WITH YOUR PARENTS AT 30? 
	
		Get a life!
	
		by Barbara Ellen
	
		 
	
		I could barely suppress the urge to grab someone and scream, “What the hell are you doing?  You get one life and you’re living it in your parents’ house! Whatever it takes, whatever it costs, however much your standard of living falls, you must save yourself and leave. At once!”

		I would try to shield your
