“You don’t have to give up all your perspectives, opinions, and thoughts on child-rearing. You don’t have to assume that everyone who criticizes your parenting is right. They might not be; they might be as self-deceived as you have sometimes been. But you do have to budget for that possibility. You must surrender the point to God in principle. The key to being a sensible parent is to be a sensible person.”
