Eight Ways To Provoke Your Kids to Anger

This article was a great encouragement to me by John MacArthur: Ways Parents Provoke

It's basically 8 ways that parents can provoke their children to anger.

Here are his 8 points:
1. Well–meaning overprotection

2. Favoritism

3. Pushing achievement beyond reasonable bounds

4. Discouragement

5. Failing to sacrifice

6. Failing to let children grow up at a normal pace

7. Using love as a tool of reward or punishment

8. Physical and verbal abuse
Read the whole article. It's great.
