@PurpleSnowman29 When the bible says train up a child, it mean set before them a standard,and it also gives us choice, as he says, Choose ye this day. Ive noticed that rebellousness comes from not wanting to be Controled,Many times people dont see christ when people pull them aside and tell them things, they see people in the church trying to control them. I always say, invite people to church, let them hear, read, accept, and make the changes that the word of god tells them to, not man.

Did Sallie Martin sing this too?

[kbolden07]

Hallelujah to that ya'll. My mama tell me that Clara Ward use to come next door to my house in that long Cadillac. I was born too late.

[Darneloh]

You're welcome!

[PurpleSnowman29]

Yeah, But we as parents have to be careful not control our children, but give them freedom to make their own choices, whether good or bad. We all had to learn that way. But I do miss Clara, she was such a beautiful little red rose. thanks for add Tim.

To add to this Willa was quite open about everything including in her life and especially Clara's.I think Willa didn't want her life to be like her mother's either. Madame Ward was something else she resented Willa becuase Willa went out and had a successful homelife.Gert was one of the main reason's Clara's not with us today. She knew how to control her own daughter with guilt. All in all it's good that Willa and her mother got right with each other before she died. That's all that counts!
