How the society is now one has to be extremely careful with the way we bring up our children and then no body can raise our children better not even their teachers who spend most time with them
In this jet age they ( children) learn very fast from as early as zero years..
Parents needs to be alert with the activities of their children until they get to adulthood
But in all prayer is the strongest weapon

I think raising children is one of the most difficult assignments on earth. Most characters exhibited from children this days are being learnt from outside, most times schools and social gathering.
I do no think a parent will ask his child to dip his hands into fire, every parents would want his child to be responsible and well doing but most children decides to be irresponsible and use less to their society.
What is corrupting the children this days is the use of internet, even a 7yrs old child owns a smart phone and his free to access the internet not for knowledge acquiring but to enjoy social lives.
The scripture will say, train up a child in a way he should grow and when he is old he won't depart from it. As you rightly said prayer is the strongest weapon

There is this popular saying that most children born around the year 2000 down are rude. As insensitive as it may sound,  it is actually true. The rate of moral decadence in our society today is alarming and parents need to be intentional in parenting. Parenting is a very big task which must not be neglected.  If you don't inculcate into the children the right values at their tender age, they will learn by themselves from social media or strangers and they might learn the wrong  thing.
 
Parents are working tirelessly to put food on the table and make name for themselves too in the society.  While they are at it, they tend to delegate their parental responsibilities to maids, relatives,  teachers and even strangers.  Giving room for the children to learn and know things they are not supposed to know.

Parents should take breaks from their busy schedule and social media too to rescue their children and the next generation at large.  Teach the children the right values now or you will never have the opportunity to do it later.

Prayer will not solve everything, in raising a good child, a parent need to be committed to the task especially when the child is still very young because that is a very delicate stage and age to learn the good and bad, and because the bad can easily be learnt, every parent need to be careful and watchful of the  kind of friends their children keep and also be watchful of the kind of movies and television program that they watch. As a parent, you need to draw your child close, so that they will be able to talk to you when they are confused, so that they will not make bad decisions in life.

That's right, no one can raise a child better than his/her parents. She/he came from them and that's why there's the bond which is stronger than any other connection from other people. But there are also parents that are no good in raising kids, they just want to have fun and all of a sudden created a human being that they can't handle because of being irresponsible. As for the teachers, there are teachers that do care that much to their students especially the little ones and in the grade schools.

I agree about prayer but remember that prayer without action is nothing. You keep on praying but as a parent, you do nothing to do what's best for your child. We as parents serve as their guardian automatically is already bonded to them until we die. This is the reality about being a parent. We will always be a parent to our kids and someday they will depart from us and will make their own families. But even with that, they're always our kids and we'll always be a parent to them no matter how old they grow and no matter how what happens and even the world turns upside down.

I think that parents should be lifelong guardians for their children not only for a certain age but also after adulthood if they make a wrong decision and move forward according to that decision Parents must take responsibility to steer them away from the wrong path if they try and raising children is one of the most complex tasks in the world.Moral Decay Social Decline Political Decline Family Expectations There are many factors that hinder child-rearing Our social system has become such that parents want children It is not possible to educate or educate the children properly, parents are not able to educate their children in a self-directed manner, and our social system is responsible for this.The society has imposed certain rules due to which the parents cannot make their children drink red even if they try hard, due to which the children are not able to acquire patriotism even though they are educated and the country is not good for the nation Because of this I agree with your words that prayer is a very powerful medium and also one's responsibility is to blame one's prayer and neglect one's responsibility There are some moral issues of parents behind not bringing up their children well that the parents or family environment order in the family they are messy in their own life no matter how much you No matter how hard Law education tries, the children of that family will never be like human beings, they will always conduct social activities Finally, whatever you do through proper work education will bring good benefits to your family and if we don't try to change ourselves, the children will also follow our example worse.

The society and the environment we lived in have never been condusive enough that we allow our children to be brought up by the influence of what the society offers, we have to take good care of our children for our own sake and their impending future, children should not be left on their own to live the kind of life they want, they must also be monitored against the societal influence and we shouldn't take their responsibilities in the hands of the government when we are their parents and first guardians.

Giving your child a solid foundation comes down to us as parents finding time for them. They learn so fast and are influenced by what ever happens in school or kindergarden but even with those events, us as parents can influence how they view it. I feel like this covid era hurt smaller kids so much, especially in places where masking was mandatory. That influence is so hard to revert.

In America, one of the best things you can do is to change the birth certificates (BCs) for your children.

BCs have a form in which they have been drawn up. The form matches a standard, simple transfer of property form like the Uniform Commercial Code shows. When you sign the BC, especially if you are the mother, you transfer the child into trust under the government. You wind up being second to the government in the trusteeship. Government becomes the reigning Trustee.

The first thing to do is, when you sign any document with government, sign it on the signature with the words "non-assumpsit" ahead of your signature. Non-assumpsit means 'no contract'. Government will accept many of your 'agreements' with them this way. And you ultimately will not actually have made a contract with them.

Regarding the BC, you probably want it for your child. There are benefits in life that your child can gain through having a BC. But there are protections from the long arm of the government if you don't have a BC for your child... although you might have to show it in court. But your strength will be greater if you can show that there wasn't any written agreement, and the benefits were simply given. Think it through.

The next thing to do is to change your signature on any current BCs of your children. Change it so that the 'non-assumpsit' words are added to it. This may be difficult in some States, but it can be done.

Home school your children, so that they are not indoctrinated by government's worldly indoctrination. Teach your children about Jesus-salvation, teaching them from the Bible.

Exactly...time..most parents hardly have time for their children... imagine admitting a child as young as nine months into a school just because they hardly home

Raising a child in this society and during these challenging times can be difficult, there are so many things which can rather go against one's vision of  what a family is.
If one does not have time to raise them, then internet will raise them and whatever youtuber or influencer which in the spotlight in that moment. I would have thought that with all this technology we currently have at hand, raising a child would have been easier...
Hopefully someday things will go back as they used to be, with people giving more attention to their family and spending more with their siblings, instead of focusing on their social media accounts 24/7.

Can you image what parenting in the future could look like? A busy couple leaving their children to entertain by himself with a VR headset...  ::). A toddler being educated and raised by strangers on the internet through a VRchat avatar.

Some parents see their children as burdens.  They prefer to send them to schools at a tender age so that thay can have the time to engage in other activities. But they fail to know that the most important task of a parent is to properly raise children. Even during holidays, children are still sent out for what they call in my country "Summer Lessons" just to ensure that they don't stay at home. It is understandable when parents have to engage in these actions because of work but when it is done because of pleasure or the inability to take responsibility, then it is very wrong.

Children of this age learn more from ICT, mostly social media. Parents should always monitor children's activities online to ensure that they are not been exposed to drugs, pornography, religious extremism, terrorism, underage gambling, and scams. It is also important for parents to know who the friends of their children are. They should ensure that they are hanging out with the right company.

Don't also fail to correct and sometimes discipline the child when he is wrong. And also encourage and reward him when he does the right thing. Spend time with your children and always discuss how they are doing in school and other places. Be friendly so that they can always tell you how the feel about certain situations. Prayers are more potent when you play your role as a parent.

Parenting a child now in this modern world seems to be very difficult, sometimes parents don't have time for there kids. The major thing a child needs is just love and care. And every parents is expected to love his/her child. Not the common love we see or hear because no parent will love his kids and send the child far away for studies at that little age. And sometimes what the parent don't get to teach the child the child learnt it from school or friends. If a child will be useful and be of good value to the society the parents must play a huge role in the life of the child. For example let's look at the story of Ben Calson, he wrote a book "think big" one of my favorite, Ben Calson was the dullest student in his class but he said his mom played an important role in his life, she will always force him and scold him to read his books, his mom made reading habit to be part of him, that's what I call a good parenting, so if Ben mom did'nt scold him he would not be where he is today.

Children these day lack to exhibit a reading habit all there attention is on social media, little kids these day I see dancing on tiktok I get amaze. Since the world is now a digital world but somethings should be regulated for our kids.

The challenges of this age is so enormous from financial aspect to the growth of internet and they all has influence on children.

A home that is not financial stable has a tendency of raising children who are going to be needy and having the need of necessities of life exposes children to the vices in society. The boys gets involved in gambling at early age, involve in taking of hard drugs which eventually lead them to gangs who are armed rubbers, kidnappers and other illicit vices including immoral acts and the ladies majorly involve in prostitution and child trafficking.

The internet has its positive and negative sides and so children who don't have good home training get involved to the negative aspect and turn out as internet scammers, hackers etc.

The parents have to focus at the early stage of the children which is the formative stage and it is very important to what a child becomes in the society. They say spare the rode and spoil the child, so the early stage is important in training a child.

There is a lot of distractions these days when you raise a kid. Everything has their own gadgets and parenting has become pretty much easier because they'll just let the kid sit on the couch and let it alone use the tablet or smartphone.

And with all of these distractions sacrifices the typical parenting that we used to grow with. Technology can really be either useful or harmful depending on how it's used especially on parenting.

Take note that as young as a toddler or less than a year old, there's already the gadget and his/her hand.

Parents pride themselves on the manner that their toddlers are able to operate on Android phones. It is good that toddlers have opportunity to learn fast but the rate of exposure to the internet is the issue. Some parents are really carefree about how their children access the internet and when we are talking about the internet we know what it is, that all manner of pornography exist on the internet whether implied or explicit. Most companies that would run their ads online would impliedly include female who are unclad.

This is the modern way of parenting today but it's just sad because it's totally different from how we were raised by our parents. Our internet is the outside play during the days and playing along with other kids.

But this time, the kids are enjoying watching other kids content by playing in every playground and with their toys instead of them playing there and with their own toys.

There's still a need to adjust for the screen time of kids and limit them so that they won't be exposed that much with technology.

This kids become so addicted to their gadgets that they care less about what's going on around them and their parents seem so comfortable with it, provided the kids are not invading their privacy or disturbing their peace.

It gives me so much concern when I see an entire family (both parents inclusive ) addicted to one gadget or the other.  And the kids are left with little or no supervision. What is the future of those kids?

These generation parents have got it wrong. With the way children behave nowadays,  you'll know all is not well and if we do not pay attention to these problem,  things will go out of proportion.

Raising children in today's culture is difficult. The civilization has progressed to the point that youngsters are now exploited to promote indecency in society and are taught to accept it as a normal way of life. The family is the best way possible to socialise. Your child should be able to learn the fundamentals of life at home, as well as the consequences of engaging in unlawful activity.

Allow them to stay away from it and always see bad as bad even if everyone else is doing it and good as good even if no one else is doing it. As you stated OP, prayer is a weapon against it; nevertheless, parents must exert more effort to achieve this.

In our society parents extremely careful about their children's. They think what is good for the children what is bad for there they try to do their best. Parents are always aware about their children's life and they are tensed about their children future life. That's the reason they took their children in a tight area for his bright future. In our society parents wants good future for the children but they don't think that what his child want to do and is his child comfortable that they want his child do in future for living.  That's the reason in our society parents create and pressure of the child for that kind of profession in future that his child didn't like. Many accepted everything and work their parents like. If somehow they look there is a hope to to have a success in the work the child want to do in future then the try to do that best but family didn't want to support him to do his work that he want to do. There is some kinds of parents in our society who will who support their child to do this that kind of work this child like. In my opinion if we are try to understand what our children like to do in future that will much helpful for them to being success in life.

Yes, in educating children, that is a tough task carried out by parents. Especially in raising our children in the digital era like today, it is very different from when parents were young when they were playing and playing. Now it cannot be denied that the development of technology is growing very rapidly, the presence of technology can make changes to the child's system, which will have a positive or negative impact, indeed technology can have a good impact on children being able to become independent and learn from the times, and there is a negative side to this. children easily open prohibited sites or are not old enough to open such sites, such as gambling sites, etc. It is true that educate your children according to the times. If we are successful in educating children, your child is a quality part of you.

Raising children is full of struggle and not as easy as previously imagined. Many parents feel stressed because they are worried that the parenting style they apply can shape their child into a person who is beyond their expectations. Being a parent is a very difficult task and no parent is perfect.
Children continue to learn new things as they grow. And, along the way they may encounter certain situations that require parental intervention to help them find a solution. Situations like this are challenges that require full attention from parents.
We really need to accompany our children's growth and development, provide support to our children & always pray for the best for our children.

It is not easy training a child in this society where there are social and economic lifestyles to face at the early stage of their lives. That's why I give it up to parents who are training their children in a godly way without letting them fall out of good character to become a menace to society.

Training children comes with a whole lot of responsibilities and it is not what a family can do alone if they are not financially balanced, mentally okay, and know how to differentiate good from evil.

Children need to be guided properly at the early stage of their life. If a family is unable to catch them young to be of good character at their tender age, the family won't be able to achieve that again once the children grow of age.

Lmao! This is supposedly to be a joke to show how incompetent you are. Your grandma take care of dozen of kids too, but you failed to baby sitting just two kids? That is a lot to make fun of, whether you are too spoilt and unable to work hard, obviously all you gotta do is work harder, taking three jobs, trade crypto during lunchbreak, trade for passive income, earn from dropshipping, whatever, don't make your grandma disappointed! Joke aside, I can see how you would evntually raise kid into a spoilt brat too, but why should I care about someone else problems, I had seem enough how society is shaped toward punishing good samaritan, good guy always die huh? And good luck raising your child to be another good guy that would be as gullible as the good samaritan. :)

This is helpful for people or parents who are very religious, unfortunately many religious parents also often fail to educate their children properly according to their religious beliefs because religious parents often just force their children to follow what they are told without being able to answer correctly any of their children's curiosity, so prayer alone is not enough.
Parents must be able to be friends with their children and be the first person to help their children when they have questions about this world, so you have to be a parent who has a lot of knowledge and never let other people, including teachers at school or close relatives, be the ones who have a big role in educating your child because that is a mistake.

In other countries that have a failed society, other parents are considering home school because the schools that they used to trust are not reliable anymore when it comes to teaching their children the right way. Thankfully, this is not the case in our country because we still have schools that are strictly teaching children real education from their childhood until college in the universities. We still have the traditional atmosphere when going to school despite countless brainwashing all around the world and that's because our government is still active and well when it comes to updating the children about their educations and needs.

Children need to be loved. Parents need to understand that just giving birth to a child and providing for the child is not love.
Parents should have a close relationship with their kids. Kids should be able to talk to their parents freely about anything.
There's no point in being like a master to your children where you tell them to do and not do a thing and they just say "Yes ma/sir".
Be like a friend to your children. Let them be comfortable with you enough to come to you with every little business that goes on in their lives.
If they see someone they have a crush on, they should be able to talk to you about it. If they do something wrong outside, they should be comfortable enough to tell you about it. This way you can teach them the right way of life.

When you have a relationship with your kids, they respect you, and they idolize you. That way it'll be easier to teach them. Children are smart, they may not fully understand but they'll see how much you try for them, and that way they'll be more inclined to listen to you and do what you'd like even when they're not where you are.
Try not to do what you don't want them doing at any point in their lives, it doesn't matter if it's in front of them or behind them.

The mind of an infant is like a new computer. It absorbs whatever you feed into it and it overtime, recognizes and adapts your pattern and behaviors. You also install an anti virus software as it would most likely come in contact with different computer viruses out there.

There have always been and probably would always be vices in our society. That’s not going to change any time soon as it seems to be getting worse as time goes by. Parents need to do more on how they bond and interact with their kids. Teach them right from wrong and how to treat other people with your words and your actions. It’s not an easy job to train a kid right but it can be done.


Several religions of the world having tens of millions of followers have been for long offering prayers to the supreme being. That hasn’t stopped or reduced the wrongdoings and suffering that people endure. Thoughts and prayers alone won’t solve anything.

Proverbs 22:6. Solomon who is known for his great wisdom already tipped us off.

The world is in the age where children are being born into modern civilization, those that are not needed during the child’s early developmental stages but they can’t be avoided because we value and respect civilization more than any other thing that should be of more importance to us. What we should be aware and do is that, we shouldn’t allow our children to be caught up in this mess called civilization, thereby allowing them to lose the basic parental upbringing that will shape their future. If this type of mistake is made, their life become increasingly unbearable to handle for them because of the restrictions you will want to impose on them and can’t happen at that time.

Early child up bringing is important and most crucial both in education. Children need the kind of appropriate education that will increase his or her prospect in life and for better living and opportunity.

Civilization is not all that bad because there are certain advantage that comes with it for instance you can access all information you require in your academic endervour online online in the past that you must study through hardcopy document. However, parents can avoid some habits that are not good for children upbringing because at that stage of childhood, everything is assimilated as their bring is very quick to pick both right and wrong. The burden is on the parent in the training of the child, so avoid activities you don't want your child to know at least in his early stage.

In 19th century parents don't do much in raising their children but you will see child will be well behaved, Is the duty of every parents to serve as guidance to this children but still they can not do it alone they need the help of the society. In early century society help in taking care of children more than the parents but this is all done by the help of parents, parents don't follow their children around, during that period if the child did something bad and elderly person see it they take the action immediately by punishing the child and the parents will be very happy and also thanks the person and when the child got home he/she received another punishment again by their parents.

In this new era parents themselves found it difficult to raise their children because of the way the society had turned to, now parents take the full responsibility of taking care of their children not like before that society use to be, the main issue of this is as a result of social media that have free access, this is based on my observation, anyone can view it in different way.

The environment or society always plays a very important role in the lives of our children's because it is the first step in their lives. So we are to be very cautious about the environment we allow our children to react to. It is not that we shouldn't keep our children away from the environment, but the trust is that parents have to take very good steps in monitoring their children's behaviors so that children are not fully influenced by the habits of society because they can be good or bad. But with the challenges we are facing now in the 21st century, almost all environments face a high percent of bad habits that children can easily learn and be a great problem to control later in the future. So parents should not fully depend on any society to raise their children for them; parents need to be supportive of their children when they are growing so they can be positive.

Teachers are great, but they can't replace the influence of parents. Parents have big responsibilities to do. You have got to keep an eye on what your kids are up to, who they're hanging out with and what they're absorbing online. It's a lot of work but it's essential to ensure they grow up with the right values and understanding.

Raising children in this current society has to be a full time job. It should not be a responsibility to push to the hands of another person like a minder. No matter how busy you are, you have to look for time and a way to fit in your responsibilities to your children so that you can always know what is happening in their life and not just be too focused on your job that you end up being successful in career, but raised bad children that you cannot be proud of, or children that will bring the family name to the mud. If you are not set to be a parent, you do not have to become one yet.

Prayer, strongest weapon? There are lots people who don't believe in prayers and they still raise well behaved children. There are also very prayerful people who are even religious leaders and yet there their children choose to misbehave in the society. Does it mean they don't pray enough?.

The society is already full of all sorts of vices. But we can still find ways of ensuring that our children get disciplined when they do wrong. While I was growing up, another parent or an elder can even discipline a child and still report the child to the real parents for more disciplinary actions. But today if you try it with some parents, you will be in trouble. People now spare the rod to spoil the child.

We can take actions not prayers. Know their friends, Know where about, put them in good schools where indiscipline is not tolerated and always be there for your children.

Raising children is one of the most difficult responsibilities one can be saddled with, most especially at this period of the age where information is flying here and there most of which is wrong and has a great tendency to mislead the younger ones.

For you to parent your children rightly you need to be very intentional about it and it will require you to take decision to deprive them certain privileges that will expose them to the vices in society.

Of course, you can't perform the role of a parent all by yourself and so you will need the religious organization, the school, and other social institutions to help you in the process, and because there is a high possibility that the information they feed your children could be flawed, you have to constantly monitor there thought process to ascertain there view on so many matters regarding life.

I think with the rate of technology advancement to train children of now into good morala are quit facinating and difficult. Although you might think you are training them well, but not knowing that socialization is advantageous and also disadvantageous. Example you teach your children the way of life and how to scale through hoddles in life, who should be there role model and there about. But as they meet some friends that lacks home training dey choose their lifestyle because bad things are easy to learn than good. Sometimes dey go to porn site and download or whatch ponography which will leed to early quest for sex at tender age. Some female might got unwanted pregnancy while some boys also fall to same trap. Likewise also drug and smoking adict. So training a child nowadays of internt is quite difficult.

You said it right, fascinating and difficult.

Difficult in a way that it could lead to speech delay for the infants when most of their parents are just like busy people working to their offices and will come home with their nanny taking care of their child.

While the nanny just takes care of everything and letting a huge screen in front of the kid watching all of those coco melons and other kids' stuff that can easily browsed on the web.

The "coco melon" really cracked me up. I didn't know any of those stuff till a child's mum broke it down to me after her child was crying and requesting to watch it. Back then, when we were growing up, we had our novels to read and not much of screens to watch, even with PG rating on some moves and documentary, it's still not easy to raise kids.

It's like the society is ahead of itself, racing to nowhere and certain morals are extinguishing and society feels safe and when the consequences erupts, mental health is blamed, what a pity.

It is very important that the same way we are busy working to earn money do that we can pay our bills should be the same way we have to take care of the children that we have. It is nit easy especially for a single parent to train there children even when they are doing extra work to make sure that they put food on the table for the children. Things are getting worse and with time if we don't take better care of our children, we might end up losing there value. Children are supposed to learn from us not just staying around us without learning thoroughly.

It's not easy and if you're talking about single parents, they have to deal with everything and that's why hiring someone to take care of their children is what they have to do as they go to their work.

There will be an effect to the kid if it's not his or her real parent takes care of them as they grow old. But as a parent, it is also your responsibility to at least allocate time for your kids.

With that, just having some good time, good food and good bonding with them will make them remember that as they grow older and the teachings that you'll tell to them will be remembered.

there are no perfect parents in my opinion kids would always have one or two things they will hate their parents for

if their parents were busy when they were growing up they might resent their parents for it but if the parents did a good job in making the kid feel loved and taken care of then as the kid grows up they will realize all the sacrifices their parents did for them and that would be enough

Yes, they’re no perfect parents anywhere but your opinion about kids always going to have something to hate their parents for is not entirely true.
I also don’t think parents having a busy schedule and not having much time to spend on their kids could make their kids resent them. They’re quite aware of the busy schedules of their parents and may feel bad at their absence, but certainly not resentment.

Our society makes childrens life hell. Because society forces them to do what against their comfort zone. Children who like to do something the society say what they will do in future he has no bright future with his dedication and this type of work he loves. Because of society many lost their dreams that makes the children's sad and broken but they have nothing to do because their parents don't understand them. Why they will understand them every parents are tensed with their children future what they will do in life that's why the force to do that work their parents like. Because of that kind of mentality what society will say what are you going to do that's make a children depressed that's why many children's committed suicide and many fell into depression.

That is true.

But being responsible is different, we all know that there's no perfect parenthood and even kids too. It is just so happen that the current society and with the modern technology, if we're going to combine both of them, it's always been impactful whether negatively or positively.

The dependence of it is always based on how the parents do handle the grooming of their own kids. I just hope that I'd be also one of the good parents out there despite that I'm quite a busy guy and I do understand about being busy on work and at the same time raising a child.

Being a parent is not easy either and with the current work environment they have to spent more time doing their duties for their bosses than their loved ones because money is crucial for everything. And mostly both parents has to go for the job to meet their needs so the kid is actually brought by a third person.

Teachers play a vital role but they also forget their responsibility of teaching discipline is a basic manner.


This is Bullshit! you need to take responsibility for whatever happens.

It's about educating yourself on raising children, and not being a main character of your life anymore. You sometimes need to put your life on hold as it was and focus on what's important.
When you get your first child, your priorities and some of your values will shift. You should put more focus on practicality and psychological well being rather than delegating your work to some spirit, or what ever you believe in.

You can pray if you want or not to pray if it suits you, but that doesn't really affect the outcome, especially if you are trusting solely in praying. It might relax you as a form of meditation, but don't count that as a parenting. You need to do parenting yourself and not trust invisible dad from the sky to watch your kids. There's an actual physical parents that child needs to be present and noticing them in order for them to grow up as emphatic, and balanced, good human beings.

You don't need to worry about that. BD-level of crazy is whole another scale and government will take custody of those children in no-time.

This reality was not tied to a specific time because caring for children was and still is a difficult task at all times and in any place. The peculiarity that characterizes our time is that the requirements for living, including basics and luxuries, have become very expensive due to the world’s integration into a globalized totalitarian system that makes economies affected by each other.

Today, due to the Ukrainian crisis, there has been a disruption in the distribution of grains to many countries of the world and an increase in the prices of all materials that use grains as raw materials. The rise in feed prices in the countries that produce them also leads to an increase in the prices of milk and all its derivatives in most countries of the world.

All of these indicators make it difficult to ensure easy living conditions for children, not to mention the security instability that threatens the modern world due to racist movements and conflicts for interests.

There are so many distractions these days that it is hard even for an adult to talk about raising a child. As the world gets better, so does talk of crime, corruption, and many other things. Gadgets have a way of making parenting easier for busy parents, but when children become overly dependent on them, it can have negative effects on them. and parent rely on their children's gadgets so they don't even have enough time to spend with their children, and that will have psychological effect on them.

Well even though there may be some element of truth in what you said,  but the truth is that that is just a statement based on assumptions and we have to be very aware of that and its possibilities,  we can't say that all the kids that falls that age of 2000 are all rude since we still have some children's who are born in that age who are still very well behaved and have control them self and behaved most respectfully,

But if we say they have high mental alertness to attract whatever character that is exhibited around them,  that I may accept and be the reason why some of them may be rude is because of the environment they grow in and the behaviour of their parents determined also behave.

This is the era of information technology and it brings with it all manners of negative vices and the youth are the major carriers of these vices. Technology has brought so many innovations that has made humanity more comfortable to live in the world but at the same time we are facing serious training challenge in our hands.

Children learn so much unhealthy stuffs from the visual media, television and the rest, they browse online to see things they age is not ready to graple with and so they also exibit them wrongly. I believe the biblical verse that says spare the rod and spoil the child is very much suited for this era. Parents have to be on toes to be sure that they turn out good children and youth to the society because good and sane society actually starts from the training young people receive.

It appears that children are being born into a higher level of age in this day and age. Children tend to learn faster at a young age, perhaps this is because they are exposed to computers at a young age, making them so familiar with them that they misuse them. Children who are raised differently and lack proper morals in society are frequently victims of excessive internet exposure. Lack of regulation on its use for children has reduced it to a toy tool for them to explore and interact with things they are not supposed to at their young age, fostering bad habits and behaviour in society.

The family is the first stage of a child's socialisation, if they fail in that aspect, they will fail in every other aspect and are more likely to be influenced and involved in illegal activities. Keeping a good and proper check on your children's activities is the best thing for every parent to do in this new age; if the parents lacks in this regard, it begins to be the doom of the children in society.

I agree, which is why me and my wife are basically a pair of teachers for our child. We haven't been working as teachers most of our lives because there were more profitable trades out there, but we have the necessary education. I've noticed that our daughter is doing great when it comes to all the basic skills at very young age. She remembers stories and tells them from memory, sings songs, recognizes letters and numbers. We're not pushing her or anything, but we've decided not to send her to day care and instead we work shifts and spend time with her at home.


I agree. We don't teach our child how to pray. In a time of need she should seek smart solutions, not help from a higher power.

Prayer works but there is time for everything , it is not bad to train your child to know God but the child might End up becoming a religious fanatics . When a child is born it is assumed that the child’s brain is empty and whatever you tell the child registers in his or her brain consciously or unconsciously.however, one of the major factors that affects a child’s upbringing is the environment where the child stays while growing up .This might be the domestic environment, school Environment, church Environment and so on.

Parents are one of the major players of a child’s upbringing but the Environment determines the child’s future because if the environment is corrupt there is a possibility that the child will also be corrupt and vice versa when   The environment is good .Peer group also facilitates in a child’s upbringing because the age brackets and kinds of friends that the child will keep in future will also affect the child positively or negatively.

Society fuck childrens life. Parents are already ever and tensed with the children's future in our country. The forces the children to do work against there comfort zone. That make a children depressed a lot. They do work against they comfort zone if some time they fail to do this work societies says your son can do this do that etc. then the parents force the children to do it properly that's the main reason children's who don't take pressures committed suicide. The current generation children's are so much confused what they will do. They are continuously forcing by their parents for the work they don't want to do.

Home schooling can work up to a certain age but to get to know society school is the best place and as a parent will only nurture the kids with the best thing in all the way. So they never got exposed to the reality of the world which is why they can't able to face it when reality hits them hard. Give all your love as you wish but also teach them the reality of this world which is never going to be as sweet as we behave to our kids.

Parent should be hold responsible for anyhow there children is behaving in the society. There are parent that care less for their children and do not ask questions about their activities and what they do at all. We all have the right to know what our children is really doing so that we can kind them from going the wrong part.

 Just like the way we see today seeing children that are not of age betting and doing some ridiculous things that is never accepted at there age. We need to talk to our children and guide them on the certain way they are supposed to behave in the society.

You're right and I believe that it's important to spend time with your kids at young age, where the personality develops at rapid pace and a child learns the fastest. I see so many people make the mistake of putting kids in day care since the age of 1 and then hey wake up to a teenager they share no connection with. A child that escapes from home to spend time with friends because the world is familiar and home is not. I want my child to value home and family the most and know there's always support and understanding waiting there.

I'm not going to home school her into her teenage years, although I feel like doing that on your own before primary school is a must these days.
People tend to think that home schooled children are soft, unprepared for the real world, but they aren't. You send kids to all the extracurricular activities they want, but they can choose what they want to do and get a like-minded group of friends there.

With what is going on in the society today, every parent have to be very careful on the ways they raise their wards from the influence of the society, considering how corrupt manners are looming around everywhere, we must not allow our children get exposed to the environmental influence because they are something we cannot accept seing our children growing up with, there are lots of vices happening today and there were not secluded from children, parents should take full responsibility of their child support and make every necessary provisions for them in other not to seek for external extension.

But they never know what they want at that young age so they will travel in the path that their parent chose for them but in school curriculum they get all the basics covered and also they can pursue their extra curricular activities too from their high school itself but that's my opinion which may differs from others though.

Its big problem in our society if chirder try to do something their parents say it will create problem in their study. They forcefully block them to do something before complete their study. But the current situation of our country no one can give surety that you will get job after completing you study. But who will convince parents.

Currently, the society is corrupted and we need to train our children so that they don't get deluded or lose their fucus while growing up.
We are seeing the way things are getting worse seeing children doing things they are not ought to do. Out future generations might have more challenges to face if we don't educate the ones in this current generation. The government also have a role to play here so that the society would be condusive for everyone. The family and individual parents have a crucial role to play here.

Parenting in this modern world requires a lot, we can't just put all the blame on the society, society cannot just spoil your child, when you give your child to the society I think that's when society can spoil them, in essence we as a parents can protect our child from all sort of corruption and rubbish happening now. Little children are the leaders of tomorrow so we as parents should do everything in our power to protect them.
Most parents don't have time for their kids anymore all in the name of work, but there's nothing bad working cause parent work hard for their children so they can live a better life, but when there's no close relationship between the parent and the child the child gets easily corrupt, that's where peer pressure comes in, sometimes parents nowadays don't know the kind of people our children keep as friends. Keeping friends with a cultist sounds dangerous cause they will always initiate little children to that act.
Sometimes we hear stories like rape and other stories, but should we blame rape on parents, I will blame rape on parents, as a parent it's our duty to take good care of our children, sometimes I see little children hawking on the street and that's not right, they get easily corrupt on the road while selling. Parents have a huge role to play.

The society has always been a place where children can just grow without needing the support of their parents. No doubt it is only parents who can train their children the way they really want. I think children are just like plant, when you have a plant from tender stage if you want your plant to do well it needs to be nurture very well and If the plant is growing into the direction that is not okay by you, you have the power to make it grow to the direction been satisfied by you and this the sane way children.  Parents attentions are needed in the growth of children for them to make better and grow just the way they want to see them.

All parents play a role in a child's upbringing, but parents must be careful to keep up with the fast pace, technology and access to information of the modern world. As a simple example, children's Internet browsing and exposure to social media must be balanced and parents must review their own roles in keeping their identities in the online world. Also, the filtering and control applied to reduce societal neglect, family members must be explored and schedules developed for the child's previous activities. Today's society is full of nudity. So we need to play a role as parents in raising our children.

I know the society is very bad but children can still raised well if parents can really put all their attention on their children to make sure that they are giving them a good training.  The World is changing every day and terrible things are happening everyday, parents have a lot of duties to play if they do not want the environment to have influence on them. I don't think it is even right to even think of depending on the government to make the society better, do your things and never hope on the government.

Play a father or mother roles in the life of your children make the children to be a good children in the environment and, whenever the children go out to mingle with other children, there will surely be some people that will see that good attitude or bad attitude on them that will make them to talk about your role you play in their life in the society.

 You will discover that there are some children are doing well in the classroom more than other students which is the handwork of other parents who play their parents role in their home not to depend on only teacher alone which is the best thing for other parents to do to help their children to improve in the society.

As a child is growing it is the utmost duty of the parents to direct his or her path, I know that juvenile delinquency must occur but before then the patent has a lot of role to play, if it is the female child, the mother has to mentor her on sex education which is very important, as a mother don't shy away from the needful because if you do, you will find yourself to be blamed, most time adolescent age has a lot of effect in children because if hormonal changes and this changes are inevitable, so what people should do at this point as parents is to make sure the monitor their children advice them on the need to be well behaved so that they can reflect positively to the society and also pray for them while doing this.

The adolescent age is the time parents needs to put their eyes very well on their children because this the time children needs freedom to have pleasure the way they like, at this point if parents are so coll with their children it will really have a bad effect on the children.  The society have a great influence over children,  and if children lacks guardians that can take care of them , the society influence them. That's is why most of the people commiting crimes in the street is a result of bad parenting.

Times have changed a lot.  Everyone has become so much modern that now they don't have time to take care of children. Neglect of parents is the main reason for spoiling children.  Children are now becoming mobile addicts due to the modernization.Urbanization of their play area is mostly affecting the children now for mobile addiction.  We should provide more play space for children.  Give more time to children.  And pray that they become good people.

Raising child in this current society is really different from the past.
Most parents this days are lazy unlike before, this days most of the child are always on their mobile phone or tablets to play or watch.
It is not like before that those child should be playing outside having some physical activities to have fun like running or playing at a park.
Some parents also spend less time with their child cause of the internet they would spend more time on screen than their child.
If we want our child to frow up to be a better person, it is not prayer that could help them it is us we should spend time with them show them what to do and how to do it.
Be their role model so that they would copy it, instead of just giving them what they want just so that you could spend time on screen.

The problem with most parents now is that they don't care about the upbringing of the child as most parent is now after making money thereby discarding their parental care to their children which really affect the child while growing up because since their parents are not giving them the required attention they deserve, they would be exposed to people who are vulnerable in the society and can impact negative ideas to the child without the parents knowing. For sure we are in computer age that children tends to learn very fast and their brains are super intelligent as any thing they learn outside they tend to practice it be it negative or positive things.

Truth is that the internet can rather make and elevate these children. I think it is the carelessness of the parents that makes them have access to sites and social media platforms that they shouldn’t. Parents are meant to constantly supervise what their children are doing on their phone. Best is to limit them to games and learning platforms. For instance YouTube has YouTube for kids, there are limits you can place and the internet wouldn’t spoil a child.

Neflection by parents and broken home has so much influence the society and this has negatively affect so many children. Our society is full of corrupt children basically from this two reason.


The internet also have a bad influence on this children because they just watch anything they see there. Parents should try to monitor what their children watch online. Most things children practice are seen from either their parents, environment or on the internet.

Most of the times, I'm usually more concerned on how children can be more conversant with the internet than their parents and improvise things in a way as a parent can not find loop holes to their dangers of the internet. These kids are getting more smart every day and one natural factor that can help restrain them is a proper home training. If not, then their are chances of them going astray since we don't follow their every movement, parents go to work and they go to school, it's hard to detect what they do during those period you were not with them.

It feels like everyone in this topic is still children themselves, not parents.

Some people write such nonsense, which is immediately clear - they stuff posts to get a couple of cents for advertising in signatures.

No offense!

The social media really effluents children a lot, and parents are should be blamed for this because they do not when it is the right time for children to have access to phone. When children have access to phone when they are very young they use it for stuff that will be a problem to them. We all know the disadvantage and the advantage of internet,  and children so much enjoy things that will be a problem to them , and I won't blame them because they think they are doing the right thing.

Op the topic is  a very big one but many see it as not necessary, there is allot to learn in this topic. Child raising in this jet age is a thing to puzzle how some parents are put  negligence on their responsibility, most in the area of some kind relationship handing everything to their teachers is very bad. Child raising in the time past when love is the other of the day is a collective effort of every member of the society to guide correct any one who is misbehaving any area found to be misconducts but today is not longer thesame every body mind their business. Though allot of technology devices is their to use in training up child but their are some things the child need relate with the parents that don't need external body to affairs, this area is where most parents failed and that has allot to impact on the child if not properly handle turn out negative.

Just yesterday, I took time to watch approximately 2 hours of the senate hearing in which representatives of  top social media platforms (Facebook & IG, 𝕏, TikTok, and Snapchat) were being questioned on the impact that their platforms are causing to the young ones in the society. Honestly, I understood the senates’ concerns but I also think that it isn’t just about the social media platforms. Parents have a role to play too. They are supposed to supervise their kids and ensure that they aren’t doing something improper.

It is detrimental to leave the upbringing of your children to their teachers and minders. They may spend most of their time with them, but it is important that as parents, make out time for your children. Correct them when they are wrong, praise them when they do right.
They learn very fast. Be their role model. They are watching you and learning more from your actions than from your words.

Yh,I suggest parents spen more time with there kids,and nurture and train them in the right and proper moral standard of the society.
The illicit, illegal,Cyber crime and pornographic materials online is alarming and taking over almost all sites the world herself needs to revive and bring back the days, values was prioritize.
Religious organizations should also improve and set measures to curb this nuisance in our society.

Absolutely The valid point. No one can love a children more than their parents. Teacher or others person just do thrir formalities and nothing else. But only partners grow their children with love and responsibility which create strong bonding between them but they are many parents who don't want to grow there children but send them to the Boarding school. And yeah prayer could be  the strongest weapon cause thus a children can become responsible, discipline, well behaved, aware about good and bad things from his childhood

raising a child isn't a one-man duty as it takes a whole community yo raise up a good or a bad child. But the truth is that times have changed and the kind. Of parenting style that was prevalent ten years ago isn't what's applicable in this current time. If you train up your child the same way you were trained, you've successfully trained up an outdated kid that will struggle very hard to meet up with the current trend of things in today's world.

For you to effectively train up a good child in todays world, you need to use a little but of the discipline of the 2000s parents and add to it the leverage kids In their 20s enjoy and then you teach them your own kind of parenting style.

This is a serious assignment that parents needs to carried out to help their kids not to get spoilt. The reason why kids gets into all this bad activities is because parents fails to carry out their duties. Parent this days fails to train their children in the best way for them to be able to do the right things as they grow up. The kind of parents that we have this days takes things for granted that is why so many young kids this days want to go into illegal lifestyle to make it in life.

it's not a very easy task in raising our children in this current society. Why because as parents one needs to create time for their children. These days we see how most children behave. They behave disrespectful and feels no one can tell them what to do and what not to do. And this is because of how some parents have raised their children. Growing up and seeing how life goes. I always tell myself I wouldn't bring up my children in the way they'll be new and scared of the outside world. Most parents have failed to educate their children on how to face the world and handle it in a manner they won't be scared. Parents should learn to educate their children on how the world works and not instilling fear in them. Those children who were caged at home are leaving reckless life when they are out of their parents home and then making wrong decisions because they feel the life they are seeing is sweet and better. It really isn't a simple task but every parent should try their best to make out time for their children, be disciplined, and educate them on the bad and good sides of life so that they won't go astray.

This is not always right everytime, there are parents who had abandoned their children for a very long time without caring for them.
Since we have good parents, we also have bad parent and we must try our best to make sure that we differentiate between the two.
The society is the one that trains children not just the biological parents. That is why they would always have to go to schools and learn behaviorally to be well suited for the society.

I second your though as I have seen this happening with a lot of my closed ones even my colleagues as they are way too occupied with their job and the running behind money which they do in order to provide better future for their children but at the same time they forget that spending time with their children is also very important as I have seen parents literally crying and regretting because they were too busy with their work and their children found solace with some random people who introduced them to drug. To cut a long story short we need to focus more on our children as we can earn money even at later stage but cannot relive the past and correct the mistakes.

There is a term called the generation gap, which is a natural phenomenon as a result of several variables that reflect on the individual’s personality and identity.
It is the gap between the ideas and beliefs of two or more generations. It includes differences or disparities in religious, political, and intellectual beliefs, values, actions, tastes, and others.

The mentality of parents in our time is completely different from those who raised you or me, and raising children has become difficult because the principles have changed and the way of raising has changed with them.
 Despite the new generations obtaining all the material things that lead to life, we have forgotten how to make a child grow up with a lofty mentality and principles.

 "It is easy to be a father and it's difficult to be a dad ".

The most considerable aspect of raising up the kids are environments.
Environments are like Influences that either corrupts good manners or it breeds up good manners. At no cost can parents bring up their kids by themselves alone without the contribution from others. It could be either by the strangers or familiar people because your child you be in school and has to interact with people, they would have someone they can just say high to by the streets even when you the parents are walking along with them.
At ris juncture, they as kids either learns by what they sets their eyes on or by who Interacts with them. Since no parent wouldn't want to corrupt their kids by themselves and even if they they, it would be act of ignorance. So primarily environment matters considering how are child is brought up.

Alot are really happening, formal education is very essential in the life of every children, children first learn easily by vision of what they see, and the environment they found then selves has major role to play, one funny thing is that most parents don't easily have enough time for children, and at that point they will find themselves wondering in the street looking for who they can relate their troubles with and most do end up getting bad advice.the truth is parents are meant to keep a close watch of their children as they are growing up to adult hood. There is increasing rate of bad influence globally such that any child that has a good home up bringing hardly mix up with the bad ones.

Although society indeed teaches a lot. But, unfortunately, it is worst that most of the parents do not spend time with their children to grow up the moral activities in the children. The one and last institute is indeed the mother's lap, so we should understand that along with the school education, We must take care to make the kids aware of our presence and play our part in their better education. What the children learn at home, we see the reflection of that in society, so must take care of our children along with their random studies at all .

Undoubtedly, every age has its relative technological perplexities, so it has a tremendous influence on the people of all age bracket. The teenagers and the youths are the most victims if proper care is not accorded to them. Though prayers to the Almighty God is Paramount, yet one thing is needed as is stated below;
An adequate education on the Dynamics of the forces propelling the change of the society must be made known to the younger ones, and that the disseminated knowledge contains the advantages and disadvantages for people to learn and consider.

You are completely accurate; parenting is an important obligation that should not be handled lightly. Parenting is more than just putting food on the table, dressing them, and providing the finest education possible; it is also about keeping an eye on them, knowing how they are living their lives, what they are capable of, and what they like and dislike. Knowing who those around them are is also important since they may be connected to their fellow students at school or church, which can be an advantage and a curse at the same time. There is a lot of pressure to fit in and be cool, and it can be difficult for youngsters to resist because they want to be included and do what everyone else is doing. So all of this might be a difficult time for the parents. So that's why we're often told to "train up a child in the way he should go, so that when they grow up, they won't depart."

Boss you have mentioned many things which I found very interesting, technology advancement will be a problem to an extent in the future because most parents see themselves as digital parents and the have forgotten that there no way a technology can do more better than a human been because they are just programmed.
Parents should engage their children in discussion session to know there problems from time to time, they should be give attention despite how things is in the world today we should do our best as parents to train our children the way they should be an example to others to emulate.

It is a matter on how adults and parents see the ideal way to live their life's while having children, you know. There will be people who will always prefer to interact with their family in person and face to face, in the same way it has been done through all the human history, however, because of this new generations of parents feel more comfortable with the idea of technology shaping the way their interest with others, then it will be just matter of time before some company develops something like an Artificial Inteligence babysitter or something similar to it. So parents would not feel forced to give as much as family time to their children as before.

It is truly a double edged sword, if you ask me.

I would have totally agreed with you but your first statement where you said the character of children are beign learnt from outside that's a lie, before a kid knows anything he first learnt from his parents, I've seen kids just so young as 2 years exhibit character of beign insultive and arrogant and when I look at it one of his parents has such a character and the child only learnt from them, if a child came from a good home and learns bad character outside it is easy to solve such problem with discipline but not when he is learning from you as a parent that one can be very hard to deal with.

I understand your point, but do you think a child will get punished if his bad habit is being emulated from his parent, instead they should be proud of their child becoming like them. Children are easily satisfied with what they hear and see, both at home, around the neighborhood, school and where ever they find themselves.
Another reason why I said so, children spends much time not around their parents but in school where they get mixed up, do the calculation your self you will understand most of the habits children gets involved into are not learnt from home but outside.

A few actions parents could do in order to direct their children in a beneficial path. First, display the conduct you wish to see in your children. If you want children to be kind and respectful, display that conduct by being respectful and kind yourself. Second, have discussions that are open and truthful with your children concerning the risks as well as advantages of the internet. Make sure they recognize that not everything they see online is sincere, and that they should use precaution when sharing information online. Third, it is necessary to create limits and restrictions on usage of the internet.

All you pointed out are clear responsibility of the parents to help shapen the life's of their children and this should begin at the very early stage, let him be taught on morals and aswell see the reflection of that same thing his being taught in you as a parent, my people will say " An apple doesn't fall far from the tree", whatever attribute we portray their is high possibility of our kids becoming that same person. The internet is getting wild and kids should be restricted but how unfair kids are intellectually fit to manover such restrictions but first giving a child a proper home training is the best means to a successful society.

Parenting is one of the best things that one can do, contrary to others opinion about raising children as being difficult
Raising children in this time is not as difficult as many sees it as it is a matter of giving attention to your children and making them your priority
The truth is we have allowed the so called western culture to affect us in such a way that we have abandoned our first responsibility as individuals and that is the home and giving our children the right moral upbringing that we got from our parents

Am wondering how porous the entire society is, in terms of immorality, reckless behaviour and hardship itself, It will be almost very difficult to raise children in this kind of era, children are the blessing from God and I think parents generally should take anything con ning their children serious in other to avoid some mistakes from occuring, though as I Mentioned earlier I know that it seems difficult but we can start from where.
The environment plays a a role in life of a growing child, despite that some homes are trying to survive this hard times, lets also make It a priority to always take full responsibility of parents because sometimes the children grow to blame their parents for what they have become, som we need to do our possible best set a standard for our children to grow with.

With this upgrading advance technology, everything is in our hand. We can use it as we want. But we have to careful about what our children adopting cause there are bad things too including good one. so we should be alert to ensure they are adopting good things. Children can learns from Teachers, relative or other source like YouTube or other social media but this is parents, who should correction their kids if necessary. And yeah prayers could be the best weapons cause a region helps people to opt the right path and spreading peace everywhere

Nowadays, raising children is actually easy because everyone has digital tools such as baby swings, and children's games are becoming more sophisticated, but today's children have less morals due to this influence, where parental love has shifted a little so that Sometimes children look for other pleasures outside of the immediate ones. When they look outside without a filter, they all take it because there is no supervision anymore. Good education for children is actually both parents, they are the ones who know the characteristics of children. The solution is that if parents find it difficult to care for them, after they are 8 years old or have reached the age to take the education level, it is better for the child to go to school in a place where the children are boarding, because the boarding school is the second place for the child to prevent negative things.
