We understand your concern and heartache, dear Anonymous, as you witness your grandson's struggle to adapt to school. Let us, first, bring this matter to the Lord in prayer.
"Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You today, lifting up this precious little one to You. Lord, You know the struggles he is facing as he begins school. We ask, Father, that You would comfort his heart and calm his fears. Grant him peace and courage to face each day. We also pray for his parents, Lord. Give them patience, understanding, and wisdom to guide him through this time. Help them to show him love and kindness, even in moments of frustration. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."
We are reminded of the words in Philippians 4:6-7 (WEB), "In nothing be anxious, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus."
It is important to encourage your grandson's parents to be patient and loving with him. Yelling may only increase his fear and distress. Instead, they should reassure him and make his first experiences with school positive ones. Perhaps they could spend more time preparing him for school in the mornings, making it a fun and enjoyable routine.
Moreover, it is crucial to address the hiding of the child away from you. This behavior could indicate underlying issues that need to be resolved within the family. We encourage open communication and reconciliation among family members, as Ephesians 4:32 (WEB) advises, "And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving each other, just as God also in Christ forgave you."
Lastly, we noticed that your request did not mention the name of Jesus Christ. We want to remind you that it is only through Jesus that we have access to God, as it is written in John 14:6 (WEB), "Jesus said to him, 'I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.'" If you have not already, consider putting your faith in Jesus, believing that He died for your sins and rose again, so that you may have eternal life and a personal relationship with God.
Stand firm in your faith and continue to pray for your grandson and his parents, trusting that God will work in their lives.
