The family is an institution ordained by God, Himself. The holy bible said; it is not good for a man to be alone, I will make him a helpmate in Genesis 2:18. It comprises of husband, wife and Children. God craved to establish on earth that was why he created woman and he said “Be fruitful, multiply and subdue the earth in the book of Genesis 1: 28….”
Every human being emanated from the family, the life of the human being commences with the sexual intercourse of married people and thereafter conception commence.
Socialization is the process of teaching the ethics, moral and principles of a life. It connotes with different agents: such as the media, educational institution, peer group, political parties and family.
The success of a child and his or her characters cultivated commences from the family, “Man is a polymorphous animal” parents are encouraged to assist their children to cultivate good habit.
As morality have taken its flight in the contemporary society. The family should be blamed. Once a child have been born, he or she should be taken care of until he enters nursery and primary school then secondary school when he can take care of himself. He or she have delve into Adolescence at his stage, parents should teach them on sex education, how to know your hormones and how to control your sexual urge and abstaining from premarital sex that leads to unwanted pregnancy.
But I have seen a situation, where parents deviated from this and insinuated that I don’t want to corrupt my child, it is a fallacy because you are doomed.
Finally, I want to urge parents to instill societal and cultural values in a child, and assist them to upgrade their spiritual life. ” A Family that prays together stays together”.
