Basically when a child is born,the family and relatives rejoice and celebrate.A baby is considered as God's gift.A newly born baby is a symbol of innocence and purity. We are even careful and cautious in handling this gift, and we are bound to treasure and cherish this helpless little creature. As parents or acceptor of this gift, we are compelled to take good care of what is assigned to us by our Creator.Our task as parents is to raise this innocent creature from being helpless into a person of humane character.
Sometimes, I wonder how an individual turn out to be someone detestable,loathsome and outcast of society.Aren't they the once innocent and helpless babies we used to cuddle in our arms because they looked so small and fragile? maybe, correct me if I'm wrong there was mishandling that happened along the way.I believe that a family is an important segment of a society.A father and a mother are the one responsible on how a person should turn out to be.I believe that Parenthood is an effortful kind of job.It's a great accountability to God and to our Society.The kind of human being we will raise will surely affect not only within the periphery of our homes but through out the community, and eventually the entire Nation.That's why, we should give the best of our ability to raise our young. Some parents may ask the most effective formula to raise up good children, I guess there's no ideal formula for us to follow. Simply install the importance of respect, honesty and integrity in their hearts and mind.Spirituality is also a considerable factor and the most substantial aspect is for us Parents to lead as good example to our kids.Children usually look up to their idols, who often times and most likely, it is either their mother or father, that's why while they are still in that stage make the most out of it, by molding their character and behavior for the better.So that when the time comes for them to explore and discover further in the outer world by themselves, at least that embedded nature we install inside them will serve as their guide to choose the better from the worse, right from wrong and honesty from cheat.
I am certain that life is a cycle or a chain reaction.Meaning good begets righteousness, as bad begets evil act.If we parents install in our children good behavior and spirituality I'm sure they'll turn out to be better citizens in our society.And better yet good future leaders for our ailing country.Somehow the fulfillment of a GOOD NATION in the future lies on how we rear our young ones TODAY.
