Episode notes
The Parenting Pyramid
- Delight is foundational to discipleship, and discipleship to discipline.
- Biblical parenting follows this structure.
Invisible Fence Analogy
- Ted Sinn describes training a dog with an invisible fence through shock.
- He contrasts this with how children should not be disciplined before understanding the goal.
Parenting Timeline
- View parenting not just as a pyramid but also as a timeline.
- Delight begins at conception/adoption, discipleship in toddler years, discipline follows, and the cycle repeats.
