Over the years I have heard people drive people into going through the same lane they went through it pains me more when I get to hear some parents allow their kids to face difficulties they face because they feel they are training them or so. Before I tell you my take let me give you stories of two different men who I have a first hand information about them.
This first man is well placed in the society and have acquired lots of wealth to himself and have gone so far to establish his kids. Any of his kids that want to get married he makes sure that he built a house for them and gets them well settle. This kids just start from there and presently are doing so well today.
Another man who presents himself as a poor man and he even leaves a life of pity up and down. To this man it is a crime to own an account with the commercial bank and all that. This man in question is a millionaire but allows his kids to Hussle for themselves, presently it is people that offers to assist the kids. He made the kids so vulnerable and unkept, all these got heightened ever since their mother died.
It will be an abomination for me to contiously allow my kids to go through same bad experience that I went through.
Growing up my mother told us that the father never cared about their educational pursuit because of that my grand mother vowed to send her kids to school which came through. I saw my mother starve herself of the basic things of live just to make sure she took all her kids to school, as I speak now five of us are graduates and are not ready to stop there. She lost my Dad to the cold hands of death so early but she didn't allow that to stop her in any way.
It will be too bad of me to say I want my kids to face the same challenges I face, to the best of my knowledge I wish for things to be so easy for them not that they won't have sense. My mother due to she was just left alone hadn't much time to give a personalized care to use, on my own part God being on my side I will like to bridge the gap. I will make sure to know the things they go through even to their tertiary institution. Many parents failed in their responsibility that's why the society is looking so porious today and some kids feels they have arrived the moment they get to the higher institution.
Providing that necessary guidance they need at every level of their life will not be a bad idea at all.
Many people would have been better they are today if they had that shoulder to mount on while growing up. My choice is the best to me because my kids are my responsibility and have seen it as that and will not want to push it to anyone else.
Another believe I have is that, I cannot wish to reap from where I didn't invest, my kids will grown with love and more if I show them the way of love and more.
Happy mid-week, this is my entry for this edition. Thank You for visiting.
