170: What Lengths Would You Go to Protect Your Child?


Listen Later

What length would you go to, to keep your child protected?

I've heard many parents say, "I would give my life for my child,"

"I would throw myself in front of a bus if I knew it would save the life of my child,"

"I would take a bullet for them."

All of these axioms are referring to the physical "I'll put my life on the altar if it will help my child."

How many of you are willing to confront another loved one if it keeps your child safe?

I know of a woman who knew that her brother was hugging her daughters to the point they felt it was uncomfortable, too close, too much and his hands were moving around too much. Her own daughters came to her saying it was uncomfortable, nasty and creepy when their uncle came to town and gave them hugs.

Would you go to that for these girls?

Would you put a boundary down and say "You know what, no more visiting this brother of mine"?

Would you also put a boundary down with the brother and say "You can't come to our house anymore and you're not going to be hugging my girls anymore"?

How many of you would be willing to confront and be uncomfortable in order to keep your child emotionally and spiritually safe?
