Ben Sira 30:11

11 Give him no liberty in his youth, and wink not at his follies.

Ben Sira 30:11 In-Context

9 Pamper thy child, and he shall make thee afraid; play with him, and he will bring thee to heaviness.

10 Laugh not with him, lest thou have sorrow with him, and lest thou gnash thy teeth in the end.

11 Give him no liberty in his youth, and wink not at his follies.

12 Bow down his neck while he is young, and beat him on the sides while he is a child, lest he wax stubborn and be disobedient unto thee, and so bring sorrow to thine heart.

13 Chastise thy son, and hold him to labor, lest his lewd behavior be an offense unto thee.
