Heart of a child

Heart of child

Foolishness is bound in the heart of a child; but the rod of correction shall drive it far from him (Proverbs 22:15).

A wayward child needs to be punished by his/her parents. Nowadays, parents do not use rods to correct their children. The rod need not be any physical object to cause pain or injury. It can be a word of rebuke. Foolishness is bound to get into the tender heart of a child and the parent should keep an eye on the child always. Once the child becomes an adult, the seed of foolishness planted in the heart becomes a poisonous plant which produces sin.
