Ben Sira 30:9

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

Ben Sira 30:9 In-Context

7 He that maketh too much of his son shall bind up his wounds, and his conscience will be troubled at every cry.
8 A horse not broken becometh headstrong, and a child left to himself will be willful.
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.
