Lack of home training is one of the reasons why many youths fail in the society, I've witness a situation whereby a father sent his son to buy cigarette and smokes it in his presence, in some other homes you'll see mother's using foul words on their husband, In the presence of their kids, all these are not good upbringing and affects the children negatively which in turn affects the society.

What are those measures you think parents should take in bringing up a better home?

I am the kind of person that believes that parents transmit their personal problems to their children, whether they realize it or not. If a couple has problems, their children would suffer from it, if there is a divorce or the couple fights too much, the children will notice and suffer from it psychologically.

I dont know how we could improve those sorts of problems in society, the only thing that comes to mind would be to make counseling, parenthood programs and psychological attention to be more widespread in those societies where they are more needed. So we can break the chain of transmitting our traumas and problems to the coming generations.

You're on point because I witnessed a case where a neighbour I'm close with was forced to pick between moving with her mom or staying with her dad due to divorce and this affected her mental health because she loved both parents and was confused of who to leave with, she had to go rent her own apartment just to secure her sanity, so I believe parenting programs and counselling as you said would go a long way in such situations.
