A devotee revealed his problem to Swamishri, “My wife and I have two different approaches to raising our child. Whenever our child becomes rowdy and mischievous I lovingly try to explain and correct him. But my wife hits and scolds him. Consequently there is a difference of opinion between us. What should I do?”

Swamishri advised, “A child is ignorant and unaware of the disturbances he causes. It is important to talk to him and make him understand with love. If you treat him with love then he will change and progress. By hitting him he will never advance in life. Hence make him understand and try to correct him with love.”
