It is not acceptable for an adult to throw a temper tantrum. If we do not accept it from children, we certainly should not be required to accept it from adults. But then, an adult temper tantrum is that child who was never told it was inappropriate behavior.
When I hear a parent excuse their child’s whiney behavior as being tired, I want to spit. I get tired too, as am sure you do. That does not give me or you the opportunity to gripe, whine and complain, in short act like a total moron. Tired is a good day’s work, it is alright. And healthy to boot!
Dr. Spock (is that how we write his name? who cares!), the pain in the bottom gave us the wishy washy family values of never telling our children when they are wrong. The dimwit ruined several generations before we got Dare to Discipline. Yet, those people are running around, pouting, whining, making complete asses of themselves and we have to bear the consequences.
Grow up, stop the whine and get to work. Never mind your aches and pains, we all have them. Live with it or take some drugs. You know who you are!
When God puts a vision in your heart, do not discard it as just another dream unattainable and impossible. Nothing in this world is impossible unless you are asking outside of the will of God.
When we hear the word Fear, the connotation is negative. But is it always negative? The Fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, says Proverbs. A healthy dose of fear keeps us safe and sound. If a child did not fear, he would put his hand on the stove and get burned. If a person did not fear drowning, they would jump in without knowing how to swim and drown.
