Proverbs 4:8-10

Proverbs 4:8 Exalt her, and she shall promote thee: she shall bring thee to honour, when thou dost embrace her.
9 She shall give to thine head an ornament of grace: a crown of glory shall she deliver to thee.
10 Hear, O my son, and receive my sayings; and the years of thy life shall be many.
 
When we embrace wisdom and give God glory for for helping us attain it then God will bring honor to us. A foolish child will bring shame to the parents, but children raised in a Godly home with wisdom will bring honor to the parents. So it is important that adults learn to teach their children wisdom as early as possible. As we grow in wisdom God will continually pour out His grace and glory on us. Again we see that if strive to obtain as much wisdom as we can our days will be long. Remember one of the commandments ;
Exodus 20:12 Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee
