Who Owns Children?

So, who owns children? Many people today think it’s the government or the public education system. Earlier this year, President Biden even said “there’s no such thing as someone else’s child. Our nation’s children are all our children.”

But that’s not true! God’s design for the family is for one man and one woman to get married and have children, and those children are a gift from God! Our neighbor’s children aren’t ours. And our children aren’t theirs! Children belong to parents.

And why? Well, so dad and mom can disciple them in the Word of God, pointing them to Christ. That’s your ultimate responsibility as a parent.
