Raising The Future Of Society

In the next few years society will go through a change as it does all the time. As children grow into adults they take on the roles that the older generations are leaving behind. This is why I believe that we really need to make sure we have taught great values to our children.

If we want hard working respectful adults in the future, it is an absolute must that we teach them to be that way when they are young. I see it more every day that there are disrespectful young men and women coming into the work force. These young adults have no respect for themselves or the people around them, and often have no work ethic in the least. 

I am not saying that all kids are bad, but I am saying that I have been seeing fewer values being shared among young people. This is because many parents these days try to be their child's friend instead of being th parent. Children will have more than enough friends in their lifetime, and what they need right now is a role model to look up to.

You should always treat your children with respect and be a "friend" to them, but your role is not the role of friendship. It is a different bond and one that parents should take very seriously. Do you want your children to spend time jail or not be able to hold a job? No we all want the best for our children, so do what is best for them and teach them to be the young men and women that our future needs. 

Our worlds greatest generation is almost all gone. The people that served in WWII are either very old and are no longer with us. If we ever want to get those types of people back it is up to the parents of today to teach Godly morals and values to our young people.
