A Child's Dilemma by Don E Peavy Sr Monday, September 21, 2009 Not rated by the Author. Share Print Save Become a Fan Is it really the child's dilemma or the parent's?

Because she could not understand, the child went to her father: "Father, if I asked you for bread would you give me a stone?" "Heavens no! I care greatly for you." "And if I asked you for fish would you give me a serpent?" "Of course not, you are my child." "Why then make me take a bus when I asked you for a book?" "I think it is your bed time."

IS IT THE CHILD'S DILEMMA? YES...THE PARENT IS THE CHILD'S DILEMMA. THE CHILD REQUESTED A BOOK...A MAP...THAT WOULD INSTRUCT ONE HOW TO NAVIGATE THROUGH LIFE...MAKING MISTAKES HERE AND THERE...FALLING BUT GETTING BACK UP AND EVENTUALLY... LEARNING AND GROWING. BUT THE PARENT PROVIDED A BUS WHICH DOESN'T ALLOW GROWTH BUT FOSTERS 'DEPENDENCE'. GREAT 'THOUGHT PROVOKER' THAT IS DONE WELL. THANKS FOR SHARING AND BLESSINGS. JOYCE * HIS INSPIRATIONS
