One
of the problems with polygamy is that
|
|
|
these
families usually have many children.
|
|
|
There
may be 20 or more.
|
|
|
|
In
African society, according to tribe, the father
|
|
|
may
not involve himself very much with his young
|
|
|
children,
much less if there are many children.
|
|
|
|
If
a father waits until his child is in the early teens, it
|
|
will
probably be too late to bond with that child.
|
|
|
|
|
Being
one person, it is difficult to love a large
|
|
|
number
of children well.

As
James Dobson has noted, children need
|
|
|
to
know that you are on their team, that
|
|
|
you
are on their side and are cheering for
|
|
|
them
to win. Then when you correct them,
|
|
|
they
will know that you love them, even if
|
|
|
they
think your correction is misplaced.
