parent advice

KJV

Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.

KJV

And, ye fathers, provoke not your children to wrath: but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord.

KJV

Fathers, provoke not your children [to anger], lest they be discouraged.

KJV

He that spareth his rod hateth his son: but he that loveth him chasteneth him betimes.

KJV

Chasten thy son while there is hope, and let not thy soul spare for his crying.

KJV

13Withhold not correction from the child: for [if] thou beatest him with the rod, he shall not die. 14Thou shalt beat him with the rod, and shalt deliver his soul from hell.

KJV

6And these words, which I command thee this day, shall be in thine heart: 7And thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up.

KJV

3Lo, children [are] an heritage of the LORD: [and] the fruit of the womb [is his] reward. 4As arrows [are] in the hand of a mighty man; so [are] children of the youth. 5Happy [is] the man that hath his quiver full of them: they shall not be ashamed, but they shall speak with the enemies in the gate.

KJV

Correct thy son, and he shall give thee rest; yea, he shall give delight unto thy soul.

KJV

My son, hear the instruction of thy father, and forsake not the law of thy mother:

KJV

8My son, hear the instruction of thy father, and forsake not the law of thy mother: 9For they [shall be] an ornament of grace unto thy head, and chains about thy neck.

KJV

The rod and reproof give wisdom: but a child left [to himself] bringeth his mother to shame.

KJV

¶ Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee.

KJV

11¶ My son, despise not the chastening of the LORD; neither be weary of his correction: 12For whom the LORD loveth he correcteth; even as a father the son [in whom] he delighteth.

KJV

1Hear, ye children, the instruction of a father, and attend to know understanding. 2For I give you good doctrine, forsake ye not my law. 3For I was my father’s son, tender and only [beloved] in the sight of my mother. 4He taught me also, and said unto me, Let thine heart retain my words: keep my commandments, and live.

KJV

When I call to remembrance the unfeigned faith that is in thee, which dwelt first in thy grandmother Lois, and thy mother Eunice; and I am persuaded that in thee also.

KJV

14But continue thou in the things which thou hast learned and hast been assured of, knowing of whom thou hast learned [them]; 15And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.

KJV

7If ye endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not? 8But if ye be without chastisement, whereof all are partakers, then are ye bastards, and not sons. 9Furthermore we have had fathers of our flesh which corrected [us], and we gave [them] reverence: shall we not much rather be in subjection unto the Father of spirits, and live? 10For they verily for a few days chastened [us] after their own pleasure; but he for [our] profit, that [we] might be partakers of his holiness. 11Now no chastening for the present seemeth to be joyous, but grievous: nevertheless afterward it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto them which are exercised thereby.
