Our Children, Our Responsibility
As a parent, the majority of us who are proud parents want nothing but the best for our children. Sometimes the choices we make throughout their lives may be construed as being rough, demanding and even pushy, but being that we want the best for our children, some sacrifices must be made to make sure they turn into the adults we hope they can be. Strong, independent, hard-working and most of all loved.
We as parents must set the perfect example if we want our children to live up to the standards we expect from them. Not every situation is easy. You may be a single parent, or a full family it doesn't matter. The important thing to always keep in mind is that we need to show interest in our children's daily routines, and we must know who their friends are.
Trouble lurks in every corner, and even though your child may attend the best school and live in the best community it doesn't exempt them from harm. These days we have to worry about pedophiles, drugs, alcohol; abductions and murders. We can never be too careful, and we should never let our guards down.
There is a lot you can do to ensure your child has the best life can offer, so if you have to enroll them in after school activity during the school year,so be it. At least this way they are under some type of adult supervision, learning, or even doing something they have a passion for like karate, dance or music.
The following story was written with kids in mind and shall go into further details on what you can do to be an actively involved parent, as well as help them stay clear of drugs. I will later draw up a list of other activities your child and you can utilize to bring you closer, and camps that specialize in whatever your child may be interested in, so you can make the decision together. Safeguarding our Children...
