Our children is the future of the next generation. The parents serves as their model and children follows what their parents are doing, is this true? i have seen good parents with ungrateful children, if this is the situation - what will be the possible solution? any idea please -

Some parents shouldnt be parents. I try not to judge but when you see parents giving in to every single demand of their child its a bit hard not to judge. I am firm but fair with my children. They are 4 and 3 next week and so far I havent had any tantrums, they know they get treats once a week if they are well behaved and if they arent they do not get the treats. I think parents should parent like this, I am not for a second saying I am the ideal parent because what works for me will not work for everyone, but I see alot of ungrateful children that make me worry about our future, these children are our future prime ministers, presidents, rulers and to some extent that scares me!!

Thank you angelsmummy, it seems that being a good parent or almost perfect one is not a guarantee that one will have a good and responsible children - it is really scary -

It is very important that we teach out children the correct ways to behave, because of the fact that they are indeed the future of our world. I see a lot of children who just don't seem to know how they should behaving, and I think that this reflects badly on their parents, as they are the ones who are supposed to be teaching them right from wrong in their life. When I have children, I know that I am going to do my absolute best to make sure that they're the kind of children that I would like them to be, and that I can be proud of.

A child is the father of man...Today's children are tomorrow's youth... so every parent should show a role model to their children and have to equip them to live..the over freedom provided to children can be exploited and they get spoiled and turns ungrateful..They have to be redirected to life and make them a social well being...............
