When a child has wronged some-
one or is at fault, a parent must
never unfairly side with his child.
To do so would be very harmful to
the child as he would never learn to
do what is right and correct himself
when wrong.
A parent must also be watchful of
his children’s behaviour towards
servants and the children of ser-
vants.
He should ensure that they do not
cause trouble to servants or harm
their children.
Servants may not complain, but in
their hearts they will harbour hatred
towards the child which could cause
them to curse the child or harm the
child.
When a child is obstinate in
demanding something then the par-
ent must not fulfil its demand. Doing
so will spoil the child.
