HO PE FO R T HE NEXT G ENERAT I O N

Another concern we should have for our children is their eternal

destiny, we shouldn't neglect that. It's important as their diet,
education, friends etc. We should care about how much our children

is relating to God as we do about what kind of career, job and fate
awaits them. We should care where they will spend their eternity,

their eternal fate is much more important in shepherding their heart.

It saves you the strength of to keep counting three. We should not

neglect the kind of company they keep, and be concerned about who

our kids call friends and those people family. Children love

friendship. It is very necessary you observe the influence of those

friends as they grow. Also is very good you observe their habits (both

likes and dislikes) and attitude. Attitude they say is everything.

Observe their level of reasoning that's why in school they taught

them quantitative and verbal reasoning. My mother as little as the

way we eat monitors it. It was not funny but now as an adult, I

understand well when I see some character traits in children I

remember some of my mummy's corrections. Who is your child's

role model because it forms part of what model its values in life and

personality, is a matter of heart.

Have time to play and chat with your children. It helps you to

playfully access their mind and free their mind from the stress of

life, not to be too hard on themselves.
