Time. “Time is short” (1 Cor 7:29). The time that you will have with your children is very limited, therefore maximise what time you have with them. At the same time, train your children to redeem the time. You must allow your children time to play, but teach them to play only when it is time to play, and to be diligent to do whatever they are assigned to do without getting distracted at all other times. Moreover, when they are older, teach them to be disciplined in their use of time and cognisant of the passage of time so that, for example, they do not spend an hour in the bathroom.
