J. C. Ryle on Love and Raising Children

Posted by Bluegrass Endurance | Labels: , , | Posted On Thursday, February 13, 2020 at 5:30 AM

“Love should be the silver thread that runs through all your conduct! Kindness, gentleness, long-suffering, forbearance, patience, sympathy, a willingness to enter into childish troubles, a readiness to take part in childish joys—these are the cords by which a child may be led most easily—these are the clues you must follow if you would find the way to his heart.”

Jared Bell Waterbury on Raising Children

“In the domestic training of children and youth, there has been a gradual but very perceptible change from the system which was in vogue fifty years ago. There is more lenity, more liberty, and more indulgence, on the part of the parent; more insubordination, more self-confidence and more restlessness, on the part of the child.”
Jared Bell Waterbury

(1799 - 1876)
