A neighbor of mine came to me crying! His erring son got mad over her father's scolding and engaged his father in a heated argument. Ending, he went out of the house and has not return for 2 days and they know not his whereabouts. It's the mother who is now suffering and crying all day. I don't know how to console her as I've never encountered such thing in my life as a parent. I believe I have been blessed to have a good son who treats me and his Dad with love and respect even if sometimes he would also gets reprimanded as he is not perfect after all. But as whole I believe we have raised him well. How about you?

I taught my kids what is morally, ethically right and I even lived what i taught them. I think I was able to instill to them what i want them to learn because they are living it.

There are cases when parents taught all there is to teach and yet their kids end up as failures. On the other hand, there are parents who are not worthy to be called parents and yet their kids end up as good kids.

Yes, we parents must live what we teach, we are the models of our children so our children are reflections of what we are as parents. Congratulations to you! Having a well raised children is a treasure to parents.

As much as possible we do take all the tips and advise by many including each members advice here regarding how to supervise children. I do believe that raising them in a nice way will not only them have the benefits in the future, we do have also as parents and will be proud when other people saw the character of our kid's.

Yes you are right the tips and advice we got from each other are really beneficial that's why I think mylot users are not only earning money here but also learning a lot from each other.
And yes the children who are raised well will have good future and for that we parents will be very proud of them.

I have raised my son well, and he respect me, I think I have done a good job in raising him. It wasn't easy.

It is not really easy. It takes a lot of effort, a lot of pain, a lot of sacrifice, a lot of love and a lot of things. But I would like to commend you for having raised your son well. My good wishes to your family!

Hi friend. Glad to know that your son treats you and your husband with respect. As for me, since my kids are still young, I see to it that I teach and guide them with their manners. I am a little bit disciplinarian, and if they have done something wrong or bad, I see to it that I tell them what is wrong with that. I'm glad that my kids are good listeners and practicing what I and my husband has been teaching them. I just hope that when they get older, they will never change and in the future when they have families of their own, they teach their kids too to show respect to them and to other people.
Keep posting. HUGZ!

Hello friend! Yes,discipline starts when they are still young, you are in the right tract! And I assure you they will never lose tract because when you train them young they will not depart from the good path they've been used to. Congrats for having raised them well!

i'm very proud of my two sons. they are grown w/children og their own & both are such good dads. it was rough at times because i was a single parent but we made it. they wers repiemanded many times, grounded, swatted on the butte if i thought they needed it.your friend's son knows hih mom is worried about him. he could at least contact her even if he's mad at his dad& put her worry aside.


myLot reputation of 96/100. salonga (1447)   ranked 1,548 out of 12,012 in parenting  4 weeks ago

Yes reprimanding, spanking and other disciplinary action should always be used when needed because that is part of correction and reproof. And you've made it despite being a single parent! Congratulations!
