Dear All,
Rearing children and helping them to grow up properly is a great work for the parents. To work with dedication and affection is a joyous activity-- whole-time, whole life activity.
There are two lasting bequests one can give to children. One is roots. The other is wings. Children will not remember parents for the material things parents provided, but for the feeling that parents cherished them. It's not only children who grow. Parents do too. As much as parents watch to see what children do with their lives, they are watching parents to see what parents do with their lives. While parents try to teach children all about life, children teach elders what life is all about.
Have a Nice Day!
