Proverbs 11:29

This verse of Proverbs 11:29 strikes me today as I read the chapter.
It says, "He who troubles his household will inherit wind, and the fool will be servant to the wise. "

There are some household that are full of disharmony and discord that even the neighbors listen and know every single dirty linen washed in public. This ought not to be. The more the foolish family wash their dirty linen in public, the more stupid they appear to their neighbors. Each household member should be united and siblings should not be fighting with each other or cahoot/collude with one another against the other. Only foolish parents bring up such kids and the home seems to be the battle ground. Some families are so utterly dysfunctional, that it is best to shift out and live elsewhere where there is more peace and quiet in the home. A home ought to be a santuary from the stresses of work, and life in general and not a World War 3 taking place!
