Unfortunately – due to hurt,abuse, and the moderngenerations of dysfunctionalfamilies – there is atremendous lack of true,whole parents, who aregreatly invested in raisingtheir children correctly,according to God’s Ways.This has resulted in manyhurt and broken children,who are manifesting (albeitmost of the time,subconsciously) their pain invarious forms, one of whichis learning disabilities.Another aspect to thisemotional root is the factorof time. In today’s world,time is becoming a veryprecious commodity,something that most peoplejust don’t have for anyoneelse but themselves. This is true for parents aswell as teachers. Many parents today are simply just too selfish to want tobother about their children’s problems, or go the extra mile in helping them.Proper, Godly parenting is time-consuming, with many sacrifices to a parent’sown desires and lifestyle – something many parents today are not willing toendure. This applies to teachers as well. Those caring, good-old-fashionedteachers are few and far between today … many now have the attitude of “Idon’t have time for this child, for his problems – just give him Ritalin!” 3For more information in dealing with emotional and inner healing, werecommend working through our “Healing Our Wounded Hearts” 4 series. Thisseries covers the role of the father, the blessings and curses overmotherhood, and the various aspects of emotional pain … and how to receivehealing for our wounded hearts in the Love of the Father, and His Son Y’shua[Jesus].3 We have come across this attitude through personal experience. Granted, we are not saying that all teachers are bad – only that this is the general trend. We also understand that there are other factors involved … such as the large class sizes, overwhelming amount of paperwork involved in teaching today, and the lack of proper discipline in schools.4 For more information, please see the full course description on the website, or contact the of9ice via email, kanaan@iafrica.com.4
