Have you ever heard of the 'seat grip"?For decades now, fathers have taught their sons how to ride a bike using the “seat grip” technique. The father holds the bike upright by firmly gripping the back of the seat while running along behind the bike. The son steers and pedals confidently knowing Dad is behind him, holding him up.Finally, the day comes when Dad removes his grip. The boy is pedaling and steering on his own, but doesn’t realize it. He still thinks Dad is supporting him.How do you raise a boy to become a godly man? You hold him up when he’s young and vulnerable, but you let him feel what it’s like to steer and pedal by himself. When the timing is right, and confidence has been built, you release your grip.For ideas on how to grow your boy’s confidence, visit Trail Life USA or RaisingGodlyBoys.com.
