Having children is something I look forward to when I get married. I would love to have exceptional children. Children filled with wonderful qualities. Children that are well-behaved.
The Role Of Nature In Having Wonderful Children.
Of course that's what this week's prompt is about having desirable children through genetic selection. DNA is the most important thing that determines the type of children a person will have. Because it's DNA that passes your nature to your children.
If I'm asked what qualities I have I would love to pass on to my children, I would mention 5 things. There are others but just these five:
Intelligence: I would love to have intelligent children. Ones that show Intelligence in their day to day dealings with people and how they tackle challenges. Children that reason very logically.
Vision: I would want my children to be visionaries, people that always have ideas on how to achieve great things and change the world for the better. Like Elon Musk is doing.
Ambition: I would also want my children to be very ambitious in life. I want them to be people that aim to achieve great things in life. I don't want them to be mediocres at all.
Compassion: I want my children to be compassionate towards their fellow humans. Be able to help others who are suffering.
Other qualities I would want my children to possess if possible are: Resilience, skillfulness in different things, funny, likable personalities, leadership qualities, etc.
The Role Of Nurture
Even though nature is the first thing that determines the type of children we have, nurture, though often neglected, also plays a huge role. Nurture is how we raise our children.
I plan to raise my children the best way possible. From their young age, I will teach them moral values. I will raise them to be learners, to acquire a lot of useful knowledge that will help them live better lives. I will buy them books as kids and they will read and learn. I will teach them how to behave in public. From a young age I will make them acquire a lot of useful skills like, cooking skills, musical skills, digital skills, etc. I will inculcate in them the habit of eating healthy food and exercising regularly so they are very physically fit.
From a certain age I will start preparing the boys to become fathers and husbands, and the girls to become wives and mothers. I will teach them everything they need to become wonderful parents and spouses.
I will teach them financial Independence. How to make smart financial decisions and how to become successful Investors.
Conclusion
I hope I will be able to do all these for my children and I hope nature will favour me and my children will get the best qualities that I possess even ones I don't.
