Proverbs 30:17
"The eye that mocketh at his father, and despiseth to obey his mother, the ravens of the valley shall pick it out, and the young eagles shall eat it."When I was a kid, I would not swear EVER outside because I was afraid the dragonflies would come sew my mouth shut. This carried over to the inside, and I've never had a problem or temptation to swear.
So, when I read this verse, I wondered if it would have the same affect on my kids (hee hee). After having a very rough day with disobedience, tonight for a Bible reading, Daddy read this verse, and had a great talk about what it means to obey and disobey. All I will say, is my 5 1/2 year old's eyes were the size of saucers! I think this will be one of those verses we will memorize together!

Hi Jen - so TRUE with the scripture verse...now with Becca in school, she knows all the words, doesn't use them, she knows the consquences- but guard your kids as long as you can, I have...and will continue to do so. Keep posting. Liz
