It’s More than Just Growing

There are a lot of parent who have the view that children grow up whether anybody looks after them or not, though they do but tell me what type of adult do such children become thereafter? They become a shame to their parent, nuisance to the community and the society at large, they are the prostitutes we see all about in our streets, vandals, hoodlums, hooligans, street boys and the likes, and if any should die in such a condition he spent the rest of his life eternally in hell. As a good parent you are expected to train up your child in a responsible way so that he can become a responsible person in the later future. God himself will not spare any parent who neglects the training of his or her children.

Parents who want their children to be responsible ones should be available and active for them and the work of child training must commence right from the time they were given birth to, you are expected to feed them with balance diet, show love and affection to them, bath and cloth them appropriately and try to attend to all their needs, you’re to labor laboriously in order to ensure an all round development for your child.

In the training of your child don’t just play the role of a nurse, also be a teacher, counsellor and a guide, teach him the virtues of love, temperance, respect for others, patience, orderliness, comportment, self-control and also self-denial, when the child starts growing up accrue him responsibilities that is appropriate for his or her age while you monitor, instruct, and correct him when necessary.

One very important aspect you have to instill in your child is the fear for God, this is of utmost importance, tell him in a clear language that children needs the savior for them to be free from the curse of this world and to avoid eternal damnation in hell fire, prove to him the way of life by living an exemplary life and you must also maintain a close relationship with God Almighty because this is the basic requirement you need to be a good parent and to have a good mother’s heart.
