Being a parent is not that easy.... my only answer is you have to give unconditional love to your child...

I do agree that as a parent we have to have unconditional love. We have to love the child but maybe not the action. We have to live a life in front of them to show them the right path. We cannot tell them to do one thing and we do another. We are the example that they watch whether we want to be or not. God has blessed us with children and we have to rely on God to direct our paths and we have to teach our children right from wrong. They will not always make the right decisions but we still have to be there for them and love them through their mistakes.

You have to be a good role model for your children, let them know that you love them unconditionally but that you expect certain things from them, give them limits and boundaries, challange them intellectually, teach them to socialize and to stand on their own two feet. Also, have fun with your kids. Before you know it they'll be grown and all you will have of their childhood are memories...make them happy ones.
