Listen "#459: Caterpillar Circle"
Episode Synopsis
In his book Bringing Up Boys, Dr. James Dobson compares parents of sons to a bug called a processionary caterpillar. A scientist once tested these caterpillars by making them walk in a circle, with a food source in the middle of their circle. The caterpillars just kept following each other, instead of stopping to eat, and eventually died of starvation, right next to a food source. Dr. Dobson says parents of sons often follow other parents in the same way. They put their son in lots of activities, trying to help him keep up with his peers. But in reality, most of the time, what boys really need is to stop, take a rest, and connect with the source of true life– our Creator God.
