Difficult Teenager
Having children can be a blessing, but raising them can be challenging without the proper support, knowledge and wisdom required as a parent, whether biological or adoptive.
The missed emotions and joy of having them and sadness due to external or internal issues can make the whole experience of parenthood a living chaos. A parent is the custodian, the guardian, the teacher of wisdom and morality, and a disciplinarian of a child. Unfortunately, these days, most children have more power over their parents than the order way round. Most parents will tell you that their children are out of control and that the children run the show. The simple unmathematical truth is that most parents are afraid to lose their children to systems should they exercise any form of control or discipline. So, due to the fear of legal issues, some parents do not discipline their children, period. The sad truth is that, at the end of the day, they have only succeeded in feeding, sheltering and clothing their kids with no hope of the children becoming anything better. Then, the question is, as a Wise Man asks, “Why have the kids if they are only here to make your life a living hell; what is the point of giving birth to children if they will end up wasted and useless to you, the parent?
Proverbs 22:6 says “Teach the child the way he/she should go so that when they grow up they will not depart from it. Many parents have lost control or lost sight of their purpose in the life of their children. Whereas, the purpose of a parent is to ensure that a child grows up to be a good addition to their immediate family, community and society at large.
If you are a parent or a guardian:
- Losing hope for your children due to internal and external problems such as:
- Separation
- Divorce
- Custody issues
- Maintenance
- Other legal issues
- Simply not getting along with your spouse due to constant fighting and arguments
