Our desire as Christian parents is to help our children mature into godly men and women. We want them to believe the Father has a plan for their lives and they’re accountable to Him.

We are to teach our children from a young age about these important truths. Teach them biblical principles to shape their thinking, their choices, and their hearts. Let them understand they were accountable to the Lord for their behaviour—as well as to their parents. If kids believe they are accountable only to their parents, then when apart from Mom and Dad, they’re likely to think they don’t have to answer to anyone.

Children will not always agree with our decisions, so we should teach them to speak to their heavenly Father about it. Over time, they will develop the habit of talking with Him. This training will become very important in lives as they develop into young adults. Instead of giving a quick no to some of their requests, we must say, “Find out what God wants you to do. Whatever you two agree on, we will accept.” This may look/feel risky, but we have to trust the Lord and give our children the opportunity to practice what we have been teaching them throughout their lives—that they’re accountable to the Father.

Training in godliness begins before children establish a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. We continue the process by demonstrating righteousness all through life. Children need to know about the Lord’s plan for them and their accountability to Him. When we model uprightness, our kids can grow up accountable to a loving Father.

Matthew 19:13-15
One day some parents brought their children to Jesus so he could lay his hands on them and pray for them. But the disciples scolded the parents for bothering him. But Jesus said, “Let the children come to me. Don’t stop them! For the Kingdom of Heaven belongs to those who are like these children.” And he placed his hands on their heads and blessed them before he left

2 Timothy 1:5
I am reminded of your sincere faith, a faith that dwelt first in your grandmother Lois and your mother Eunice and now, I am sure, dwells in you as well.

2 Timothy 3:14-15
But as for you, continue in what you have learned and have firmly believed, knowing from whom you learned it and how from childhood you have been acquainted with the sacred writings, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus.

IT IS WELL. GOD BLESS

You can't be more appropriate Op, as the societal misdemeanor can and easily be corrected in its nucleus(family),but how many of our parents believe? Know and are serious about the things of God? Afterall, the child only needs to see papa/mama do it and its done
