How To Train Up A Good Child by RACOme: 1:40pm On Apr 25, 2022
With the rate of happenings, around the world, especially in this part, parental training is really of great importance in the life of the younger ones (leaders of tomorrow.)

Sometimes when you hear about what underage children are doing, you will be forced to ask if they have parents.

It is important to note that whatever a child becomes in life, it must be attributed to their upbringing, whether good or bad.

How can the parents train the children to be useful not just to the family but also to the society at large?

This question has been ringing in my head for a while now so I decided to share my thought on GOOD PARENTING.

It is important to start the training and discipline very early, even before they are one year old. There is something appropriate for every age.

Good parenting involves a great deal of consistency and routine, which gives children a sense of control. Good parenting focuses on developing independence in children, so redundancy becomes the aim for parents. Good parenting involves a style that considers children's age and stage of development.

Teach them early to respect and obey constituted authority, that is, you, the parents. Then as they grow older, they learn to obey the laws of the land.

There has to be a set of values to instill, if not, the wrong ones will take hold. Christian values are my preferred ones. Teach them to fear God.

Be a good example, children will pattern themselves more after your actions than your words. So if your words and your actions tally, the better.

Be very strict, when they are younger and ease up as they grow older. Apply the cane if necessary before they get to three years. As they grow older the need to apply the cane will lessen and the need to shout would have become minimal.

As they grow older, become their friend and mentor. Teach them how to relate appropriately with the opposite sex. Teach them about types of relationships and the appropriate times to have them.

Teach them sex education and be very liberal and realistic as you can get. Let them get more interesting lists of gifts from you than from their peers if you can manage it.

Make it fun and educational. Learn the appropriate names for body parts and don't cringe at the street versions. Teach decorum and street smarts.

Teach your boys to have sense and face their life purpose early. Teach the girls to keep their virtue and pursue their dreams. They don't have to wait for marriage to be successful in life.

Teach them yourselves about the vices peculiar to their age and society in general. Show them consequences for such vices and prayerfully guide them to avoid them.

Boys and girls must learn how to cook and be domesticated from an early age.

Teach them to respect elders. Teach them to spot predators. Teach them to pray for guidance. God is their ultimate parent.

Teach them a lot of physical skills. If left alone, children nowadays will focus only on digital screens.

Give them an exciting childhood to remember.

Discipline appropriately, and don't compromise on showing a lot of love.

With these steps, I think the parents have done their best in their upbringing.

The rest is left to God

Parents are the problem. You cannot give what you do not have. Many of our parents are indisciplined. Many of them are hypocrites. Many of them carry curses they pass on to their children. A lot of parents are overgrown kids and that is why our society is so messed up.
