I am pregnant with twins and will soon be the mother of 9. I have taught all my daughters from the youngest age to learn how to submit to the will of their Abba (father) and to respect me as their mother. But I have also made a point of teaching them about what their future husband will expect, just as my husbands are teaching my boys about how to command their future wives and children with loving and firm leadership. I think it is a disservice to our daughters to assume they will go through a rebellious phase, when in fact religious folks such as ourselves often find that we can skip that phase if we instill enough respect for authority in our children at a young age. It is also a disservice to let a girl run wild only for her at 17 or 21 to marry a young man who suddenly expects her to submit... something she has no idea how to do since it was never required of her.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1366991985961475065.post-45430690867127489262011-04-26T08:13:18.046-04:002011-04-26T08:13:18.046-04:00If you'd like to make the rolls my dear daught...If you'd like to make the rolls my dear daughter and I are making in that silly photo (above) . . . cut-n-paste this link into your web browser: <br /><br />http://www.food.com/recipe/thanksgiving-cottage-cheese-rolls-266330Deb https://www.blogger.com/profile/05075536265028086261noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1366991985961475065.post-69451813695400437412011-04-26T01:06:17.682-04:002011-04-26T01:06:17.682-04:00Deb,

We used to say the "trainable two's turn into the terrific threes and later become the tremendous teens." If you are consistent when they are little, they will be a joy when they are older. Our 17 year old daughter and our 16 year old son are both living with very different attitudes than would be expected by the world. Praise the Lord for his wonderful promises concerning raising children with firm loving hands.Lisanoreply@blogger.com
