Third, let's except our responsibilities of parenthood and not fight them. Complaining about parenting certainly doesn't help. It's like throwing gasoline on a fire. Let's except this responsibility of parenting and this will free us to help our child develop and to give up their childish ways. Let's talk about parenting in the midst of today's many negative influences.
Studies indicate that the influence of parents far outweigh anything else.
Your home holds the upper hand in determining how happy, secure, confident, affectionate and stable your child is. Despite all the many distractions for your child you still have the greatest influence on your child. With the changing nature of families, it is important to remember that the key to a successful family is not whether it has two parents, but whether the parental focus is in the right place. Countless single parents give love and nurture and discipline to the children. The single parent can raise a child and guide him through all the stages of his life and into responsible adulthood just as two parents can.
