Choices young adults make

In the book he discusses how some good parents blame themselves and are held responsible by others for choices their children make.

“If you’ve launched only high flying sons and daughters, then you won’t comprehend the sentiment of these words”. he says the following, “Why? Because of the crazy notion that parents are responsible for everything their child becomes”.  (Dr. Dobson pg. 63)

Scripture to illustrate how God views this subject:

The word of the Lord came to me; “What do you people mean by quoting this proverb about the land of Israel: The fathers eat sour grapes, and the children’s teeth are set on edge”?

As surely as I live, declares the Sovereign Lord, you will no longer quote this proverb in Israel. For every living soul belongs to me, the father as well as the son both alike belong to me. The soul who sins is the one who will die (Ezekiel 18:-1)
