Creating a Better Generation

I believe the major goal and aim of every family, community or Nation is to create a better generation. A generation stronger and better than the present, hence we see various forms of developments being done in our community to make life easy and better, we see technology beyound our imagination to create a better standard of living. Even schools today have developed many morden forms of learning, to give our children the best education. Even with all these developments, we still find it hard to achieve our dream of creating a better generation, the developments and technologies we created has now become a major tools for the destruction of our future generations. Many feel we have to be someone big or do something great to be able impact or make a difference in the world today, but the truth of the matter is that even the little efforts in the family matters alot, it plays a long role.

We are going to look at creating a better generation in terms of the family. Today we hear various news about suicide cases, how our young ones commit suicide because they find it hard to face the results of wrong choices or rejection they have faced.

As a parent, your major role should be to educate your child not just in morals and good behavior but also how to achieve success at an early age and also be able deal with failure. Many children today find it hard to handle rejection, i once heard a story of a guy who committed suicide based on the fact his crush rejected him, i have also seen cases where many give up on their goals and dreams after experiencing difficulties or loss. What about those that killed themselves because they had little likes on social medias or are going through cyber bullying?

I believe in other to create a better generation, our kids should be thought at an early stage not just how to succeed but also how to deal with failure, they should know that failure or rejection is not the end, but also a process of learning and growing to be a better version of yourself. Many parents shy away from this topic cause they feel they want the best for their child, so they tend to teach then only how to succeed. As parent we should also strive to be better roll models for our kids to emulate, because what we fail to understand is that what ever character or traits our kids exhibit is based on what they have seen on heard at home, it is does strong basic training that also help them in dealing with peer pressure. Those trainning would also be what they would impact into the society in return.

Proverbs 22:6 KJV

Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.

Remember, failure is never the end, its just an opportunity to learn more, rejection does not mean its over, keep trying until you finally achieve it, or in most cases something better. In every road to success there must surly be ups and down, because notting good comes easy
