Do you believe children are inherently good? Do you believe a child to be capable of deliberate calculated malice? Has your child ever encountered a bully? Which child would you focus on during such an encounter; the bully? Or the victim? Little children grow up to be adults. The behavior in the child is indicative of the person they truly are deep inside before God. As we journey with our child, it falls to us to prepare them for their future. We cannot change the world around our child, nor can we prevent conflict in their lives. Fortunately, we can weave into our children moment by moment, the art of being proactive. We journey with our children only once. The substance we pour into their soul, or lack of it, will remain with them long after we retire to the grave. In our “Lil” story, conflict arises reducing Grace to tears. Nonetheless, she walks away the victor as she applies the power of proactivity.
