The Honor of Parenting

 


While there may be some good shows out there, sadly many media today show parents thinking of children as accessories to their life, and sometimes also show the parents who devote time to their family as being foolish, unsophisticated or not respected as much as lawyers, doctors or other people who spend their time devoted to work.

Some shows seem to view parenthood as a joke to be made fun of – even to be mocked by the children of those tv families.

They don’t understand the total living sacrifice of unconditional love that is necessary to raise children with good hearts, healthy spiritual and physical bodies and good consciences who can improve society and the world.  They don’t understand how honorable and noble it is to be a parent.  They don’t understand that when you develop a True Parental Heart – that you also feel love for ALL children and families!

The world needs a deep and profound paradigm shift:

People who practice True Parentism must work to restore the dignity and respect back to parenthood and family and the parent/child relationship.

Before I had children I couldn’t understand how being a mother could be respected.  It seemed as though women were expected to become mothers by men because it was considered unskilled work for women (and men considered women to be of lesser intelligence).  I thought that by becoming a mother I would never be respected, because I would be considered the same level as breeding-cattle.

That stigma is the fallout resulting from much of mainstream media and secular society’s attitude toward women who are mothers.

Families are also being sabotaged from within by what their children learn as they are out and about in their daily lives.

Many school leaders and school teachers treat mothers and fathers as ignorant cattle who are not even capable of raising their own children well, without the school feeling it’s job is “correcting” the parents’ “mistakes” and trying to erase any morals or religion or values the parents may teach.

(Why do you think the homeschool movement is growing by leaps and bounds?  “Value-free” education has become value-less, especially when taken to the extremes that government-run education has pursued at times.)

It is a dangerous attitude of society’s disrespect and prejudice against parents!

And children absorb that attitude from many directions – is it really a surprise that children grow up not trusting their parents’ judgment and wisdom?

Children rebel because of the insane dreams the media and society feed their minds – they are taught that they are somehow smarter and more experienced than their own parents!

“Parents are too stupid and ignorant to make proper decisions about their childrens’ lives.” – that message is why many children think parents don’t permit them to do some of the things their peers, media and society encourage them to do.

True Parenthood and heartistic families is a revolution that needs to take over the world.  Those who are already practicing True Parentism have begun this revolution and we should all learn and grow and engage ourselves so that this revolution of heart can take over the world.

Often, secular society’s understanding of God and religion is a set of arbitrary rules, regulations and traditions that are old-fashioned and out-of-date and trying to push down people’s happiness.

Society and the media often teaches families how to fight and disunite and learn a false set of priorities that rot our hearts, minds and spirit.  Why then are we surprised when society is sometimes rotting around us?

True Parentism teaches families how to nurture and empower the whole family – for the sake of society, the nation and the world!  True Parentism teaches us to think of everyone in the world as connected to us – we are all God’s Family!

We, as parents, need to have a greater confidence and understanding of our True Value and True Dignity, and how to practice that True Love in our family – the True School of Love!

    Parenting is the most important job, with all the crisis around….. what has to remain strong is the T. Love,Value and Dignity in our family and among families. With this, we can be protected and win over, the destructing wind that comes from a particular sick society…….completly agree with the article. Tk
    All the best

    Strengthening the family is essential. Unconditional love within the family is essential. That is a strong base from which to live. Yet youth need to experience life on their own terms for each is an individual who has his or her own perspective but as the twig is bent so grows the tree. For those of us who were not so fortunate as to experience unconditional love within the family growing up, God's love becomes our unconditional love. It takes true faith to live from that base.
