There is this parable that says an apple does not fall far from the tree. This proverb means that children often resemble their parents in behavior, character, or appearance.It suggests that traits, habits, or qualities, whether good or bad, are usually passed down from parents to their children.
Another proverb says that a snake doesn't give birth to a goat; it must give birth to something that has a long tail like itself. Some children inherit characteristics either from their parents or from their father.
Deep down they know that the character their children are portraying is the real them. I know a guy who doesn't steal, but if he passes by your house, something must disappear. He brought so much shame and disgrace to his family. It was when his mother had a stroke because of an event that happened, that's when he changed.
Now he is a man and has gotten married, but his wife doesn't know anything about his past. They have a son. If you keep something, and his there you will find it. If that child enters your house, something must disappear because of that people no longer allow him or his siblings to enter their house. Even though he is the only one who steals, it reflects on his siblings too.
Now nobody is talking about it but people that knows his father, know that it's the father's character. Some children are just acting like their parents, and the entire family will be pretending like they don't know what is happening.
Although some children just carry their own bad character from the womb, no matter how much you train them and try to discipline them, they will still end up being wayward like they were not trained at all. Then, at that time I will not blame the parents. Parenting is not easy; you can put in your best, yet your best will still turn out to be a disgrace and a mockery.
But some parents are the reason their kids turn out that way because tell me why you won't discipline your child from a young age. When people correct him or her or even spank them, you get angry or at times yell at that person in front of the kids.
There is no blueprint anywhere for parents not to have one bad child. Children most of the time get spoiled because of the kind of friends that they keep. As a parent, it is best to know the kind of friends that your kids keep right from nursery.
I still believe in training up a child in the way he should go because there are small things that parents ignore that have become big problems for them and society at large. Bad children can come from good homes, and good children from bad homes.
95% of the child's character and the motivation to misbehave come from home training. Some kids behave badly outside the house while their parents are unaware because of the type of family they come from. Therefore, they try hard to ensure their family doesn't know about their bad behavior outside.
