Assalam-o-Alaikum and hello to my Hive family!
Welcome to another blog. I hope you all are having a good day. I’m also doing pretty well. Today, I’m going to write about an interesting topic that is very close to my heart. I had been thinking about writing on this topic for a while, but I couldn’t find the time. The topic is the importance of children in our lives.
Is there anything more important and valuable in our life than children? Are children our real asset, or are money and career our real assets? These are a few questions I will answer in today’s blog.
I am a father of three children—two beautiful daughters and one cute son. Believe me, they are everything to me. They are my real asset. I love them all, and they are very close to my heart. Before I had children, I used to wonder why people loved their children so much and took so much care of them. But when Allah blessed me with children, I truly realized their importance.
Being a father, I always try to take good care of them. I do my best to provide them with a quality life. I spend a lot of money to give them good education, and I am trying my best to be a responsible father. So far, I believe I am doing well in this responsibility.
A few days ago, my elder daughter told me that her teacher punished her for being absent from school for one day. I felt upset and immediately contacted the head of the school. I asked why my child was punished for a single day’s absence. He did not have a clear answer. I told him that if my child is ever punished or scolded like this again, I will take her to another school. Children are not made for punishment or harsh scolding. They are like flowers and should be treated with kindness and gentleness. I shared my child’s example to explain my point of view that children are the most lovable people on earth for parents.
Money, fame, status, and games are temporary things in life. We should keep them secondary. Our first priority should always be our children. They should be treated as the most valuable part of our lives. Your children stand with you in thick and thin. They are your real support. They encourage you in every kind of situation and circumstance.
When you become a parent, you start behaving more responsibly. You stop living only for yourself and start living for your children. We try to become better human beings because children learn from what they see. We cannot teach them only with words; they follow our actions. Our behavior is their real lesson.
I believe these are the main responsibilities of a father and mother:
We should give our children quality time. We should provide them with quality education and training, and teach them manners and ethics.
We should guide them in every situation and allow them to choose a profession in which they are genuinely interested.
Being a good father or mother is a challenging task. Many people struggle in this area because they cannot manage time and stress. Most of the time, parents start scolding their children because of financial pressure or mental stress. If we want to become good parents, we must learn to manage our stress, time, and finances.
I always try to give quality time to my children. On weekends, I take them out for lunch or dinner. A few days ago, we visited a famous fast-food place in our area. I took them there, and we enjoyed a lovely time together.
In the end, I would say that children are a blessing of Allah. We should raise them with the mindset that we are worshipping Allah through their care and upbringing. They are our true asset. We should love them and take care of them more than anything else in this world.
