Matthew 7:3-5
3 And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy [child’s] eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?
4 Or how wilt thou say to thy [child], Let me pull out the mote out of thine eye; and, behold, a beam is in thine own eye?
5 Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy [child’s] eye.

"No other success can compensate for failure in the home."

Some questions to ask yourself:

• What can I actually control here?
• Why do I sometimes act like I can control things that are out of my control?
• Do I want to keep doing that?
• Why don’t I want them to see it differently than I see it?
