Family Relations July 1st-5th

This week in Family Relations we discussed the importance of the mother and the father. We talked about how many mothers and fathers are both in the work force, and tried to determine if the need of both parents working was necessary. I believe that it is important to have a parent in the home with young children. Whether this parent is the mother or father, I believe that children will succeed in learning from their parents'. Either a father or a mother is able to work side by side with their children to show them the correct and appropriate ways to work and problem solve. Both parents are able to include children in working around the home, children feel accomplished when they see the effects of their work. I think the most important job parents have is to demonstrate attitudes that they want their children to develop within themselves. I do think that the world is focused on the tasks and wages of work instead of working to be supportive and showing love to your family. Husbands and wives should have the others main interests and concerns at heart, when this is able to happen both parents will be better examples to their children.
