Proverbs 22:15
Foolishness is bound up in the heart of a child;
The rod of discipline will remove it far from him.
Lesson: Spanking a child drives out foolishness

Proverbs 23:13-14
Do not hold back discipline from the child,
Although you strike him with the rod, he will not die.
You shall strike him with the rod
And rescue his soul from Sheol.
Lesson: Discipline with the rod

Proverbs 23:26
Give me your heart, my son,
And let your eyes delight in my ways.
Lesson: Work to earn your child’s heart

Proverbs 28:23
He who rebukes a man will afterward find more favor
Than he who flatters with the tongue.
Lesson: Rebuke your children when needed

Proverbs 29:15
The rod and reproof give wisdom,
But a child who gets his own way brings shame to his mother.
Lesson: Impart wisdom through the rod and reproof, and do not let your children have their own way

Proverbs 29:17
Correct your son, and he will give you comfort;
He will also delight your soul.
Lesson: Correct your children
