QOD:- Can you teach your child something you do not know?

I love to ask questions. I'm curious about way too many things but I also love to hear what others think. 

So my Question of the day is this:- For those of you with children, can you teach your child something you do not know? 

I guess what got me thinking was that I am in the process of implementing some sort of discipline for Smaller. He has a fiery character and will not give up if he thinks he can get away with it. How then, will I be able to teach him patience and self control and discipline if I myself have not got or mastered them yet? 

The bible says, "A man without self-control is like a city broken into and left without walls." (Proverbs 25: 28). I don't want my son to be like a city broken into. I don't him to be influenced by something that will not do him good. But someone needs to teach him how to be that way. And we know that kids learn by what they observe. What do you think? 

Smaller.
