What does the Bible say about the roles of parents and children?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible instructs children to obey their parents and parents to raise children with godly authority.

In Ephesians 6:1-4, the Apostle Paul outlines the distinct responsibilities of children and parents. Children are commanded to obey their parents in the Lord because it is right. This obedience is rooted in respect for the authority God has established. For parents, particularly fathers, there is a divine call to nurture and admonish their children in the fear of the Lord, avoiding actions that provoke anger. This dynamic represents the gospel's call to mutual respect and love within the family structure.
