Of Poor Modelship

Having a week long discussion about parenthood, it is becoming very clear that there is something wrong amongst our parents in society today. The belt has been loosened for too long now and  basic matters are falling out of hands. The fact that mothers' Day was celebrated three months ago, we still note with dismay that our older community are still struggling to be accepted by some of their children. Their formeree felonies of how they treated and handled their children is back haunting them. Some misappropriated family wealth, others perhaps were harsh, drooped in character, illicit drinking and open day immorality drove away the respect and sympathy of their generation thereby leaving them to fate to determine how they live.

It is not a good picture at all in the eyes of both God and humanity to be treated to all sort of mannerless act demonstrated by the so called adults. Careless sickening habits  have taken place openly in the presence of those who were not supposed to see such actions taking place. Witnessing occasions that put our parents into contempt. A father beating a mother in the eye witness of their five year old son and on a different scenario, strong words being exchanged in form of abuses yet again these similar souls will later demand respect.

Sincerely speaking, where on earth does such kind of behavior stir discipline and dignity? Why can't parents learn to think straight and act normal? When will they understand that a lot is expected from them and learn to effective their parenting styles? A lot needs to be done to correct this stature of poor models. Let a parent be a parent and a child be a child. Draw the distinctions and let acting up and taking up of responsibilities begin from there. We are tired of some buffoonery parents whom it is hard to tell whether they are grown ups or children. Style up parents!
