6B ♦ FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 22, 2006 DOBSON From page jB adolescence, about 15 min utes before the individual leaves home. I reject that notion categorically. The best preparation for adulthood comes from train ing in responsibility during the childhood years. This is not to say that the child should be required to work like an adult. It does mean that he can be encour aged to progress in an order ly timetable of events, carry ing the level of responsibility that is appropriate for his age.

Little by little he learns to sleep through the night, hold his own bot tle and reach for what he wants. Later, he is potty-trained and learns to walk and talk. As each new skill is mas tered, his mother “frees” herself that much more from his servitude. Each year the child should make more of his own deci sions, as the responsibilities of living shift from his par ent’s shoulders to his own.

I am not suggesting that we abdicate parental lead ership during these years; rather, I believe we should give conscious thought to the reasonable, orderly transfer of freedom and responsibil ity, so that we are preparing the child each year for that moment of full independence that must come.

POWELL From page $B y A pure river with the water of life, clear as crystal, flows from the throne of God and courses through the center of the city. On each side of the river is a tree of life, bearing 12 crops of fruit, with a fresh crop each month. No temple resides in the city, for the Lord God Almighty and His Son are its temple.

Nothing evil will be allowed to enter. Only those whose names are written in the Lamb’s Book of Life will inhabit the holy city. Its inhabitants will never experience death, tears, grief, suffering, and * JFmming » CMotuymmming • Oil Vhintings • fiifti Gusfom fftamenff 918 Carroll Street • Perry, GA 478-987-4079 „ ORDER TOLL FREE 1-800-743-8730 lex delivery, tight to youi door!
