Family & Parenting

A family is a care-giving unit that may consist of a couple; a father, mother, and children; a single parent and child; a circle of friends; or grandparents and grandchildren.

“The family should be a closely knit group. The home should be a self-contained shelter of security; a kind of school where life’s basic lessons are taught; and a kind of church where God is honored; a place where wholesome recreation and simple pleasures are enjoyed.”

~ Billy Graham, “My Answer,” syndicated newspaper column.

Parenting means the caring and upbringing of a child. It includes the love and guidance given by parents, and though it is not an easy task, but the joy of parenting is unmatched. It involves the process of raising and educating a child from birth until adulthood, which is mainly done in the family by parents.

When it comes to parenting, there is no fixed method that fits everyone. Part of being a good parent is to be creative, loving, caring, and flexible. All children need compassion, consistency, affection, encouragement, and limits. These are the main building blocks that allow you to handle any parenting challenges you face.

“One of the greatest lessons we can teach our children is to live their lives with the ability to face fear and go beyond, to persevere and accomplish goals.” ~ Andrea Patten, author, What Kids Need to Succeed.
