Rebellious Teens

Young children do get frustrated in the comparison with their parents. In light of their greater ability to communicate, accomplish tasks and supply their own needs, the child's desire to be like them is understandable.

Yet there is no desire to hide because of the difference. Instead, the child wants to be like them and will constantly watch and learn. The difference is love, trust and respect.

Unfortunately, this usually changes to hiding and animosity in the teenage years...

Matthew 18:3

And he said: “Truly I tell you, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.
