‏ 1 Kings 1:6

v. 6: David had never corrected Adonijah or questioned his actions. Because his father never said, Why have you done so?, Adonijah grew up spoiled and undisciplined. Both father and son made mistakes—David for not correcting him, and Adonijah for not accepting guidance. When parents do not discipline their children, they may lose their children’s respect and honor.
