A Bigger Responsibility

The best thing you can give your child is 'a good example' ...where your child watches and observes you very closely and considers you as an 'icon' or 'example' and learns from it.Children learn what they live ....Parenting is leading them by examples.That is why,our role modeling as parents to our children is the most important responsibility.Its like we are writing life scripts on 'how to lead life' to our children ,that will be acted out by them for the rest of their lives....Parents are the highest form of influence in a child's life.Children also get much of their sense of security from the way their parents treat each other.Therefore,building a healthy relationship between parents will have a powerful effect on the entire family ....The way we illustrate and deal our life experiences and actions .....the way we handle our differences .... reflects on their learning process.The thinking and actions of parents are inherited by their children.There is a need for parents to be aware of displaying a total positive,spiritual,healthy outlook in life....erasing all the double standards that have been set,which will nothing but destroy a child's personality.But,on the contrary,with positive thinking and good actions,a child learns to trust and respect ....feels your unconditional love and values them ....learns to believe in spiritual and moral principles that you have instilled in them .....accepting them to become responsible,caring ,contributing adults in the near future.

An Unknown author has expressed it rightly....

If a child lives with HONESTY ,he learns what TRUTH is.
If a child lives with FAIRNESS,he learns what JUSTICE is,
If a child lives with ENCOURAGEMENT ,he learns what SELF CONFIDENCE is,
If a child lives with FRIENDLINESS,he learns to CO-OPERATE.
If a child lives with FEAR,he learns to be APPREHENSIVE.
If a child lives with CRITICISM , he learns how to CONDEMN.
If a child lives with SECURITY,he learns to have FAITH IN HIMSELF.
If a child lives with HOSTILITY,he learns to FIGHT.
If a child lives with ACCEPTANCE, he learns to LOVE.
If a child lives with RECOGNITION.he learns to have a GOAL.
If a child lives with PITY,he learns to be SORRY FOR HIMSELF.
If a child lives with JEALOUSY, he learns to FEEL GUILTY.

Indeed,we do have a bigger responsibility!!!!!!
No Doubt,Children learn what they live !!!!!!
