Dear Parents, it's another time to read the Mind of He that
has committed the lives of those Seeds into your care.
You'd wonder why some young girls feel more comfortable with
their peers than with you.
You'd wonder how they'd want to spend more time chatting
with folks on their mobile phones rather than speaking with you.
You'd wonder what on Earth they are doing with their phones
at hand almost all day.
Well, it's because they feel that's who and what accepts
them without complaining about their flaws and still with that show love and
laugh away some things.
They feel it's a place of SOLACE that they won't have to
communicate for fear of being reprimanded or thought of corruptness.
I saw sometimes that a girl in her teenage wanted to speak
with her mum about "Boyfriend" and the mum was like "At your
age? What on Earth do you know about all those?"
Listen, Dad and Mom, it's understandable that in your
dispensation it took you up to 18+ before you attained puberty or started
making use of a pad and having suitors coming around. But what do you do when
you have a girl of ten already menstruating and looks like a woman at 18?
It's to tell you how things have changed and you mustn't
continue with the ways and manners you were brought up ma.
Can you sit down with your daughter and have HEALTHY
conversations?
Dad, can you just sit with your boy child and play games
together and talk while you act as friends?
If you don't become our FRIEND we'll find it difficult to
share our FEARS with you, Dad & Mom.
The time is now to get closer and be flexible whilst you're
still correcting and training us in the (God's) WAY we should go.
Just joke around, and laugh out loud with your children;
when they feel safe with you they'll spill their hearts with you and by this,
you guide them well.
Tell them how MUCH you love them; if it is possible Say it
to them every morning and appreciate their outlooks and efforts every time.
This will boost their level of communication with you.
Don't be a parent that just supplies material needs,
academic needs, and money and leaves the EMOTIONAL NEEDS of your children unattended
to.
If their minds are not properly taken care of, it can render
all you've been providing somewhat useless so to say.
The Wisdom needed to be a Parent indeed, leaving no stone
unturned in our parenting, I PRAY that God grant UNTO us in Jesus' Name. Amen.
