It’s Sunday afternoon and here I
am, ready to write a blog entry in front of the computer. The issue I have chosen
for today is bringing up children.
Often, when my kids were younger
I thought what difficult was to bring them up correctly. Being parents is one
of the most stressful and difficult tasks I have ever had. It is said that kids are born with a silver
spoon in their mouth. I have always thought
they should be born with a manual where we could find some advice for helping
us with their upbringing. I am just kidding of course, it is impossible to have
rules for upbringing children. The way a child is raised depends on a lot of
things. Not only parents but also the rest of the family, the school and the environment
in general contribute to child upbringing.
I am not a specialist person to
say what the best way to raise the children is. But, as a mother myself, I
reckon the most important thing is the way we act and behave because children
learns by imitating what they see around.
One day, somebody told me
something that I have never forgotten. It was a day I was worry because I told
one of my kids off severely and I didn’t feel very well. I’ve always been very
strict with my children and sometimes I was no sure if I was doing right. What that
person told me was the following: “parents are never perfect but always do
their best”. That´s true, being a parent is not easy at all but is rewarding. So,
if you are a parent don’t hesitate and keep trying doing your best. Good luck!
