Are you feeding your children to the Wolves?

Well, with this in mind just look around you. Does it seem awful cold and nasty out these days. And I don't mean this in a atmospheric kind of way, I am speaking of the disappearing of morals and values and the self-centered greedy society we live in. It seems there is never enough, so families work twice as hard as they did years ago. And thus causing an empty nest of parents at the home front! Unfortunately it seems a lot of parents think their children can raise themselves! And if the foundation of morals and values isn't instilled early, you are not going to have a respected teenager or adult society. We are breeding a generation of wolves and monsters.

Now, for those of you who are trying and doing your best I applaud you. You deserve it, parenting is hard work! And for all of you who are not shame on you, for your lack is devouring our youth! And for one, I refuse to feed my children to the wolves. And boy this is a hard task, we not only fight the normal teenager challenges we fight the wolves! Those latchkey children that had to pretty much raise themselves. Children alone for too long have a use of unstructured time (e.g. watching too much TV, video games and computer access; internet chatrooms and adult websites. Too much garbage, you get out what you put in!

Today it is the norm to over indulge your children, and spoil them! Well, it seems like a quick fix for the moment but in the end you are leaving them with nothing. They don't feel they need bounderies and limits and as far as working for something, well they expect their parents to supply it. And those parents that don't fit that mold, well they tell our kids there is something wrong with your parents! We are too strick, too controling; sorry I don't care what everyone else thinks I'll know in the end I tried to do what was right morally and biblicaly! And every chance I get to talk to a teen I share in a brief way my beliefs. I have found the kids listen! So, they really do want our guidence and love! So, hold on to what you truly believe and hang in there, there is still lots to do.................

This article is good and really quite accurate. Moms really need to be home more or atleast when the children are home from school.
