if we want them to grow properly we need to attach ourselves with them.
Making them feel that we are just here and we will listen and understand whatever things they are trying to explore.
One thing of letting them feel that we are guiding them to the right path of life.
I highly agree parent should attached themselves to their kids. Teach them a good core value and do things that will earn the trust of the kids not only as a parents but also as a friend. Kids needs confidant and I can say a parent is successful with their parenting if the they became the confidant of their kids. The thing is kids are most vulnerable to all kinds of vices and bad influence if they are confused. And the best way to counter this confusion is to have a confidant that can advise them in the right path.
Parents, from the moment the child is in the womb, from that moment there should be no other reason to fight, as a child grows, values, education and behaviors, discipline and within discipline is the value of doing things well, teaching children the value of money and teaching them that there are things like casinos, that they should not get involved because it is a risk, until they are of legal age, and that is the easiest way for children and parents to maintain a very strong relationship, Thus, respecting the tastes of adults, it is from these foundations that good people are raised and made.
But there are children or sons/daughters who do really go opposite on what their parents been told them or do or leading them on the good way but since we do know that distractions are everywhere,
then it cant really be avoided that you would really be in lost path or track on good things.This is why we cant really put up all the blames into those guardians or parents because not all things
that their children is been doing does automatically means that their parents are irresponsible.Sometimes they cant really just be able to take control on their children
when it comes on certain manners.
