Are all children of your profession an added challenge?

In youth ministry, you either love them or are driven up the wall by them.

They either know it all or resent the church.

They either answer everything or don’t utter a word.

They either ask the most insightful questions or try to undermine everything you attempt to do.

Now, these binary options aren’t the only places a ministers kids will fall, but they can all be true.

But, does a similar thing happen in other professions?

Are the children of teachers or school principals a polarising blessing/curse?

Are they also softened or hardened due to the experiences of their parents?

Is it the same for lawyers, doctors and garbage men?

Do they also run amuck or are they extra grateful and gracious for the peak behind the curtain?
