Training a child in the way of the Lord is a parental duty and obligation given to them by God. Training a child does not only involve providing material things, food, Education and other things that the child needs to live a normal life, but also impacting good morals in a child's life and training him or her in the ways of the Lord.
The book of Proverbs 22:6 says:
Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.
A well trained child from childhood will grow up in better understanding of what he or she will face later in life, he or she will grow up in the ways of Lord. A child that's brought up in the ways of the Lord bring happiness to the parents, family and a blessing to society at large. But an untrained child will only cause heartaches to the one who gave birth to him or her, a disgrace to the family and a reproach to the society.
The duty of the parents is to train their children in the way of the Lord, teach them what they need to know in life so that they will grow up well. Remember that training is a gradual process, it may take time for children to become perfect, so as a parent never get tired, continue training for frustrations come later when you deny your children the necessary training. I pray that God strengthens all parents as they carry out their parental obligation in impacting good morals in their children's life Amen.
