Kinda cool news

So apparently there is an International Bible Competition for Jewish young people

A student from a girl’s school near Tel Aviv beat 15 finalists to win the 2010 International Bible contest, traditionally held on Israel’s Independence Day. Or Ashual, 17, whose name means “light,” is a student at Amana girls’ school in Kfar Saba. Her father, Shimon, won the contest 27 years ago.

Like father, like daughter!

Not sure exactly what the questions are… probably doesn’t include the new testament. :)

What you value as a parent WILL leak to your kids!

Secrets of Disciplining Your Kids – It’s All In The Before

Some quotes:

  • Discipline is 90% prevention and only 10% reaction.
  • Discipline isn’t what you do when children misbehave; it’s what you do so they won’t.
  • It is well-trained, well-taught children that handle choices responsibly and with respect for the rights and needs of others

Love it!
