Dr. Dobson's advice: When facing openly defiant and provocative behavior from your children, you cannot be afraid or retreat; you must take control of the situation. Raising children is not the domain of cowards. If your child is not properly disciplined during infancy and childhood, it will be very difficult to correct them once they enter adolescence. Instilling respect for parents is the foundation of proper education. Between harsh, oppressive discipline and indulgence and leniency toward children, there is a middle ground. Children can grow up healthily in an environment of loving discipline. If an 8-year-old child is exposed to adult sexual behavior prematurely, they are unlikely to wait 10 or 12 more years before applying that knowledge within the bounds of marriage. Those excellent parenting principles are timeless—they originated with God and remain as effective for us in the 21st century as they were for our ancestors.
