The other day I heard a very powerful message on an Christian station, it was a message about children and how it is our responsibility to set the right example for them. One important quote stood out to me he said "You cannot impose what you do not possess".
How can we impose any morals and values in our children that we ourselves do not follow, we have to realize as parents that yes our children hear us, but they also watch our actions. All children are rebellious at some point but however if we do impose what we possess on them it is more than likely they will listen to what has been taught to them, but not just taught but also shown to them in our actions. Everyday I think we as parents need to look at ourselves to make sure everything we say to our children can also be shown through how we conduct ourselves in society. Do we actually listen to what they have to say or do we talk over them? Today is a different day and time and some of the older methods of raising children has since long gone, children were always taught to do as they were told, but today children are much wiser, and in a sense weaker, given the technology age giving them so much access to things that we did not have as children ourselves. So let us all learn how to live, learn, and pay attention no one is perfect but there is nothing wrong with striving for perfection and teaching our children to also do the same.

Shaking my head: It's time for a change
I know most our tired of hearing about this but I just had to say it. Know your worth ladies and the decisions we make not only affect us but the ones we love. People say wisdom comes with age but I beg to differ comes from the mindset. We all should grow as we age but when you don't make the necessary changes in your life to grow we often continue down the same path of destruction. Time to wise up and wake up so much of social media displays the negative what happened to positive outlooks. The video down below is what some of our young people need to see we don't need anymore future middle-aged porn stars. I'm not judging just stating fact.
