Bible Question:
I have a friend who has a five yr old daughter. He is in the process of getting a divorce. He is a Godly man, and is trying to make a decision regarding custody of his daughter. He suspects his wife is a lesbian, he came to this assumption by the company she continues to keep with women who he seems to feel are lesbians. I trust his judgement on this. He is torn between keeping his daughter himself, or letting her stay with her mother. His daughter has been separated from her mother for several months, and just recently had the opportunity to see her again. My friend does not want to see his daughter so upset when taken from her mother, but he is concerned about leaving her in that environment. Is there any spiritual advice that might help him, or point him in the right direction when making this decision? |
Bible Answer: Greetings sufficient grace, The bible tells us that the husband is the head of the household. As the head of the household and the father he is responsible for his daughters spiritual education. This I believe extends to all situations, including finding the best environment for her to be brought up in. So the basic question is whether she should be brought up in an immoral or moral environment. I don't believe the best choice is an immoral environment, which means that she should live with her father. Being brought up in the wrong environment is more harmful than for her to be raised by her mother. In addition, by the father raising the child, that does not mean that the child would not be seeing her mother. And if it truly is a lesbion situation the father could carefully teach the child the truth and still let the child have a good relation with the mother. Hope this helps. prayon |
