Parental Guidance

I believe children are becoming an endangered species. They say it take 7 adults to raise children...two parents, 4 grandparents and a teacher. This is so difficult to fulfil.

Like the motion picture rating system...we have to personally decide what is best for our children until they become adults. We have to teach and guide them. There are so many important factors to raising a child...so much emphasis is put on education...but home is where the heart is and it starts there.

Today juvenile behaviour has reached astonishingly bad levels especially at adolescence age. Binge drinking, drugs, underage sex, obesity are but a few to name. I feel the most important one, is the complete lack of respect for our elders.

The most common cause of all this being...split families, mothers going out to work and the complete lack of understanding of our children i.e their diet, social behaviour, exercise, plus many more factors.

Generally, parents do not spend enough time rearing their offspring, they just let them sit down in front of some sort of screen...be it TV< DVD< or PC.

Exercise is also a key factor and has been especially lacking on the school curriculum as children need an outlet to get rid of their pent up energy.

Their diets needs have to be seriously addressed too..obesity is rife in the younger generation. A basis for their future has to be built...hence my phyto diet.
