I'll admit, subconciously I've been thinking a lot about a friend who's dealing with a lot of junk her father dumped into her life through his perverse selfishness. I apologize. Mothers can be just as abusive to their children, I admit. Mother's are blamed for a LOT in counselor's offices. <br />The intent of my post was simply that this is not the way God designed family life to be. The dysfunction in families is growing worse as the centuries roll by - we're treating our children as if they have less and less value. I believe God created family for the nurturing of the children, and protection from abuse. <br />This generation can stand up and put an end to a lot of this, if we recognize what's going on and persue God's ways, instead of the depraved ways of sinful mankind; if we begin to recognize the lies we've believed....<br />Thanks for your comment George!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4768323097181006164.post-13810034178551832282011-04-18T12:40:41.654-07:002011-04-18T12:40:41.654-07:00I wonder why they don't think the same thing w...I wonder why they don't think the same thing when it is the mother who abused them, which happens far more often. Or, when the mother denies the father access to the children, which happens in 40% of the cases involving separated parents.George MCCaslandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15007479301944534709noreply@blogger.com
