How the society is now one has to be extremely careful with the way we bring up our children and then no body can raise our children better not even their teachers who spend most time with them
In this jet age they ( children) learn very fast from as early as zero years..
Parents needs to be alert with the activities of their children until they get to adulthood
But in all prayer is the strongest weapon
I think raising children is one of the most difficult assignments on earth. Most characters exhibited from children this days are being learnt from outside, most times schools and social gathering.
I do no think a parent will ask his child to dip his hands into fire, every parents would want his child to be responsible and well doing but most children decides to be irresponsible and use less to their society.
What is corrupting the children this days is the use of internet, even a 7yrs old child owns a smart phone and his free to access the internet not for knowledge acquiring but to enjoy social lives.
The scripture will say, train up a child in a way he should grow and when he is old he won't depart from it. As you rightly said prayer is the strongest weapon
A few actions parents could do in order to direct their children in a beneficial path. First, display the conduct you wish to see in your children. If you want children to be kind and respectful, display that conduct by being respectful and kind yourself. Second, have discussions that are open and truthful with your children concerning the risks as well as advantages of the internet. Make sure they recognize that not everything they see online is sincere, and that they should use precaution when sharing information online. Third, it is necessary to create limits and restrictions on usage of the internet.
