is there any greater honor then being a parent? If so why do some take it so lightly?

Question

and treat their children like burdens instead of the blessing that they are.

Answer 1

it is an honor and a burden. The reward is in their becoming productive adults. They are fun to watch grow too. Life is amazing. To answer your question, i suppose some people misplace their anger and frustration and stress to their children. Some people are just mean. So often we hear about programs for children. I believe the programs should be for families, parents. A happy, stress free parent produces a healthier child. Without the support and finances raising children can be very hard. But the reward and pride comes in their success.

Answer 2

As a mother, l take my job seriously. lt saddens me that many children are not well taken cared of and grow up illiterate roaming the streets.
l think there should be a seminar for good parenting. Good parents on the other hand should be rewarded. Doesn't have to be money. A special mention in the papers will do.

Answer 3

Some are heartless enough to concern about themselves more than their children. I wonder how that could be but nothing in this world could compare with being a parent!

Answer 4

Because some of those parents are bad parents or they are poor or they don’t have time for their child.

Bad parenting result into bad children and this is why there are so many kids of my age and younger who have no respect for society, not even for themselves.

Answer 5

Answer 6

If you don't have the love and respect of your children, you've got nothing.
