It is one of the most powerful things any person alive
can do, to choose to raise a child.
Whether he or she is a
genetically related child or one you have gained from another family, a
child is a life long commitment. It's worse than having a puppy (lol)!
There is a well known saying that
to have a child is to wear your heart forever outside your body.
To
some extent that is true. Think teenage angst was bad? It's noting on the
first time you have to deal with your own child's heartbreak! |

With our busy lives it is so easy
to become geared up to making sure our children have all the essentials
covered, such as food, shelter, learning to read and write, and all those
important jobs done, that we forget that so much of what our children need
us for is for us to impart a spark of desire in them to succeed, to become
all they were made to be.
It's the drive of many parents to watch their child
surpass them in their life in some way. Whether it is with a talent, a
discovered passion, or their standard of living, children should be able to
combine what they learn from our mistakes, and our life lessons with the
lessons and opportunities they themselves face and collate them together to
succeed.
To have a successful child we need to create a
childhood that breeds success. The best part about this is it doesn't cost
you thousands of dollars in private school fees or in plenty of extra
curricular activities. In fact with just a little time, some listening and a
whole lot of talking you can beat those things in most part hands down.
Helping a child succeed in today's
world is a little different than it was a few generations ago. Back then, it
was considered wise to teach your child to become a salary and wage earner,
working in a stable job from the moment they left school until retirement.
Success was measured by how long you stayed in the same job. Consistency and
stability were the favoured attributes.
Then it was all about working your
way up, about starting out in the business, any business and working your
way up to the top, not worrying about whose toes you may step on on the way.
More recently things have changed.
The more recent generations coming out of school accept they will probably
have at least four to five career changes over the course of their life.
They know how to flaunt their talents and sell themselves and aren't too
scared to do it.
