Matthew 18:6 But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea.
It is apparent that there is a special place in the Lord's heart for our little children. Both in the New Testament and Book of Mormon, Christ called the little ones to come unto him and told us to all become like them.
I believe there are many ways in which to offend one of the little ones. Besides the obvious cases of abuse, I feel that failure to properly train our children is also an offense to the Lord.
It is important for us to do all that we can and sacrifice our whole lives to rearing our children and showing them the right way to go.
Proverbs 22:6 Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.
