what my kids will become

Yes, I think all mothers have the same feeling, can not stop worrying about their kids, especially the future. My son only 22 months right now but I do worry sometimes what he'll become in the future. But I think all we can do right now is just try our best to be the best mother for them, always pray for them and then let them choose their own future. I know as a mother, we will feel that they gonna be our baby forever, but they are an individual person as well who will have their own little family and life in the future.

I do empathize with you coz I'm a mother of three young kids. I surely feel the same way. Giving them material things is easy but molding their personality is really hard. As a mother, we want our kids to grow as do-gooders. When they make mistake we try to subtly correct them so as for them not to repeat it. Most of the time they commit same mistakes over and over again and we ask ourselves, "Am I too lenient with them or too strict?" Well, they have their own free will and I won't feel guilty as long as I didn't falter reminding them. I try to be a good mother by showing them good examples. I talk to them like adults and explains to them the pros and cons of their actions. I give them advises but not forcing them on a decision. If they made a wrong decision then it's for them to learn from it and be wiser next time.

As long as they know right from wrong, they are hardworking and as long as they have a passion for something, then you have done a pretty good job. It is your job, not the media or anyone else's, to raise your child the way you want them to be raised. You have to do your part as the parent. You have to get them interest in life and in what they do. Most parents are always going to worry about their children, it is only natural. Worry is part of the job. You have to love them no matter what as well, they are your children, and whatever you do, don't make them think that they are evil. My nieces told me that other day that they thought that their mother thought that they were evil. I could not believe that. How could any child believe that their parents think they are evil? I told her that she wasn't. No one is born evil, they choose to be good or not to be good. Your children have to feel that you love them. They have to feel that you care. They have to feel that there are things worth fighting for. You have to be a mother or a father.

I know I do and I am sure that any loving/caring parent does. There are so many times when all I think about it all the time hoping that the things I do or say doesn't hurt they way they feel or think about themselves because I know that a lot of how there futures turn out has to do with how they feel or think of themselves. I want the best for my kids as most parents do and I know that I just want to make sure that they graduate and can get as far as they can. we are not financially set to send both of them to college so they will have to work to get there and I am just hoping they can do the most that they can and that they have enough self esteem to be proud of themselves in anything that they might do.

hi...i tink u shouldn tink much about but i understand every parent is worrid about their children future....till they grow up v should guide them in each and everything but shouldn go to scold them allways,be nice to them...wen they grow up live them to take their decisions and tel them wat is right and wrong in their decision...pretend as if u r not very strict to them but watch them allways....keep loving your child ....have a nice day.!!!!

I think all loving parents have a thought like this.We can give good education and values.I trust in God,so rest of the things will be in his hands..By thinking and worrying we spoils our health..Be happy...
