Mother has the total responsibility of raising the children to become good human beings and good citizens. I personally, feel raising good citizens is far greater responsibility than just raising good and successful children. The citizens build the nations, which is the future of our children. If we like to be selfish, we should be selfish in giving good overall future to our children. In the process of our being more self-centered, we are somewhat deviating from our other equally important responsibility.
Woman is the primary force between the parents who is responsible for creating good citizens.
True, a father carries a lot of influence over children in building their character. Yet, it is the mother who inculcates good values in the children. Unfortunately the deterioration of our society is not solely to be blamed on the films and the media. The first and foremost influence on the children is the parents. With our shifting of the priorities, we are not able to give enough time to our children.
