HOW CAN I DIFFER WITH MY PARENTS' OPINION WITHOUT BEING DISRESPECTFUL?

#familyrelationships #conflictinfamily #christianfamily What are the ways of achieving this? SEEING THINGS FROM BOTH ENDS OF THE CONVERSATION : We should get to understand our parents' perspectives well before we air ours. When we seek to understand them by giving them audience and asking them questions, then they will also want to hear us and understand our "stands" on certain issues we respectfully don't have common ground (James 1:19), • choice of marriage partner • Choice of course to study PRESENTATION: the presentation of facts and ideas that are different or in disagreement with our parents must be in such a way as to convince them and also be respectful at the same time. Your gestures must show that you simply don’t agree but still respect them, and if it comes to a push you are willing to concede to them, your tone and choice of words should be seasoned with salt and gentle, these aren't your peers that you can go yelling at they deserve your respect. PRESENTING FORMAT: Sometimes in the heat of the moment, we can say things we don’t mean or act a certain way therefore if your opinion differs, it would be wise to bring up the matter at a much more relaxed time and back your thought with sound argument that is convincing, such that they can see from your perspective. It is really important also to ensure that the way you live would speak to your parents that you are someone who can make a good decision; they wouldn’t leave you to make a terrible decision simply because your argument is right. UNDERSTANDING YOUR PARENT: people differ some prefer one on one conversation, while others aren't fans of such, you know your parent likes and dislikes, use those relaxed moment because these moments will enhance your parents understanding of your views . For example, speak to daddy after making him a cup of tea you brewed in the evening if that’s the kind of thing he likes or after a peaceful weekend. People can change their opinions; you simply have to be honest and polite. PRAY: there is some really important decision that parents would make on our behalf and it wouldn’t be what we would love at all, sometimes no amount of convincing would be enough we should seek the help of the Holy Spirit to speak on our behalf. Be honest and courteous: honesty brings honour to our parents and we should imbibe this in our daily conversation with them. If it is something you are convinced of or instruction from God, you can stand and persuade them more. Don’t simply obey their instruction even if it is a sin; because the bible says obey your parents, situations like going into prostitution for monetary gain, or stealing in fact. These are no go areas. Jesus when he was in the temple for 2 days and his parents thought he was In their company, after his parents found him and his mother spoke he still obeyed, he was respectful and still honoured them, he simply reminded them of the assigned place for him at that time We are a community of truth seekers who give biblical perspective to questions bugging the minds of Christians.
