Correction or Destruction? Why You Must Never Discipline a Child in Anger (A Life-Changing Staff Meeting Story)

So, at our staff meeting today, I asked everyone to share “a day they will never forget and the lessons they learnt from that experience.”

Little did I know that question would open a conversation that would change something in me forever… and it might change something in you too.

So, read carefully ❗

One after the other, everyone shared their stories…  some funny, some inspiring. Then it got to one of our new staff who joined us just a few days ago.

She started quietly “It was the day I lost my right eye.”

I was like,  “Which eye❓”

She’s always on transparent glasses, so I never noticed anything unusual…

Then she said “My dad beat me out of anger when I was younger. His hand mistakenly hit my eye. After so many treatments, I eventually lost it.”

At that moment, I went silent ❗

Because, I had planned to beat my son tonight for something he did earlier. But after hearing her story, I changed my mind immediately.

As if that wasn’t enough…

Another staff shared that his dad can barely hear properly today because his grandfather once slapped him out of anger, and that single slap damaged his ear for life❗

They have to shout and her Dad read lips to understand their messages.

Those stories broke me! And they taught me something I will never forget…

Never discipline a child in anger…. Never❗

Because one minute of uncontrolled anger can create a lifetime of pain and regret❗

Sometimes what we call correction becomes destruction❗

So, please, if you are a parent reading this, let’s learn to control our emotions. Correct with love, discipline with sense, but never in anger ❗

May God help us raise our children with patience.

May He protect our homes from actions we will regret forever.

Please feel free to share this to your friends and families so we can all caution ourselves when angry❗

HAVE A RESTFUL AND PEACEFUL WEEK EXPERIENCE

Salvation Prayer

If you don’t Know Jesus as your personal Lord and Saviour and would like to accept him into your life as your personal Lord and Saviour, Please say this prayer:

Father, I know that I have broken your laws and my sins have separated me from You. I am truly sorry, and now I want to turn away from my past sinful life toward You. Please forgive me, and help me avoid sinning again. I believe that Your son, Jesus Christ died for my sins, was resurrected from the dead, is alive, and hears my prayer. I invite Jesus to become the Lord of my life, to rule and reign in my heart from this day forward. Please send Your Holy Spirit to help me obey You, and to do Your Will for the rest of my life. In Jesus’ name I pray, Amen.
