Now I believe that if my parents had given me everything that I needed in life I wouldn’t have turned out so good.. Now I am not saying that children who have had all of their needs met as kids or rich kids don’t turn out good.but I think some path your parents allowed you walk on through in life whether out of negligence or not, was… part of the divine plan of God to make you a much stronger and a better fighter for what is yet to come to you later on in the future.
I don’t even think parents should give everything that their children ask them for. Just because you have it doesn’t mean you have got to give it to them whenever they ask for it. Because when you do that to them as children, when they grow up and leave your house into the real world, they will have no sense of nothing.. because the real world doesn’t give you anything for free… you have got to work your butt out to get what you want…
So you find your baby girls or boys getting married, thinking that that person they are with is supposed to provide everything they need just like their parents did… that’s not the real world…! Here is what the real world does to you… The real world dangles carrots in front of you and expects you to work for it if you want it so bad.. Maybe I could be wrong but I think to say that Parent shouldnt empower their kids too much.
They should teach them how to work for what they want…, teach them how to fish the right way, so that when they become adults, they can stand on their own two feet, when their parents are no longer there for them…
Now this don’t mean that you have to put your 10year old on the street to sell water or candies but you teach them how to work around the house, make your bed, wash the plates, cut the grasses, do the laundry, wash the cars and at the end of the week, they earn themselves some pocket money for being good kids… that’s what I am talking about…
You are basically telling them that nothing good comes that easy… See, for those kids, complaining that its has always been hard, their fathers were never there for them and so they are about making a decision to be bad and take what they cant afford from the shelf…
Listen up real good, God has designed the midnight hours for everyone on this earth to go through… he didn’t make it, he didn’t plan it, he allowed it to happen. And the reason for that midnight hour, for you to go through is not to destroy you, it is to make you stronger and make you better and wiser…
So you are NOT to despise it, you are supposed to walk on through it. So if your parents kept on rescuing you from your own midnight hours all the time, they wouldn’t be helping you well enough to be equipped for what is to come to you in the future….. They would just be blocking all of those longlife lessons and things that God has set up for you to make you stronger, you get ba???
Now if God has designed the midnight hour for you to go through and your parents are busy rescuing you out of it all the time, then what would you need God for??? Your parents have now become your God…. And you know that God is a jealous God and he can take down anything and anyone just to make you give him that number one position where you are dependent on nothing but Him and you can trust nobody but Him…
I believe that your parent’s job is not to take care of you from the cradle way down to the grave,…. It is your job as an adult to figure out how the hell you get your way to the grave….! So grow up and stop blaming your parents for what they couldn’t give to you as a child cus it was all in the process… it was all part of the plan….
