A PARENT'S PRAYER Please, I pray, Make me a better parent. Teach me to understand my children, to listen patiently to what they have to say and to answer their questions kindly. Forbid me from laughing at their mistakes or from resorting to shame or ridicule when they displease me. Make me as courteous to them As I would have them be to me. May I never punish them for my own selfish satisfaction or to show my own power. Guide me hour by hour that I may demonstrate by all that I say and do that honesty produces happiness. Reduce, I pray, the meanness in me. And on days when I am out of sorts please help me to hold my tongue. May I be ever mindful that my children are children and I should not expect them to have the judgement of adults. Let me not rob them of the oppurtunity to think by themselves and make decisions. Bless me with the wisdom to grant them all their reasonable requests and to deny them the privileges that may harm them. Make me fair, just and kind. Grant me the privilege to be loved, respected and emulated by my children. In Jesus name. Amen
