This is part 2 of a series of posts about Family.
Family has everything to do with Love and marriage.
A family first consists of two people who have made a long-term commitment to each other and are living together. A family usually have the same values and goals.
So a couple is already a family.

In a Child's life family will be the single most important influence. Children depend on parents and family to provide for their needs and protect them. A child's first relationship is with his parents. A child learns about himself and gets a foundation for the rest of his life. Family values and morals are part of this foundation.
The child also learns from time spend with family, love, appreciation and open communication. Family traditions are habits that families create by doing certain things on a regular basis, like holidays, how they celebrate birthdays and other family occasions.
Children will learn the basic values from his parents. They will learn good manners, morals and values that will stay with them for the rest of their lives.
So when parents bring a child into this world it will become the most important thing that they ever did. To just think that little life comes into this world totally depended on you. And how you raise and teach that child is going to be who he or she becomes. It is a huge responsibility which I don't think that parents often think before they have children.
I recently became involved in @familyprotection and this made it for me necessary to look at family and what is happening to families today. To research and see why is this happening to families and what can we do. One of the main reasons I also wrote about Love and marriage is to help couples to stay married. Most of the times when couples divorce it is the kids who are scarred the most.
So in the next posts, we will look at what parents are supposed to do for their children growing up.

Hi @hope777, I'm from Indonesia, I happy to see the portraith of your families, and your narration is valuable. Thanks for sharing . Mau God bless you always..:)
Thank you for commenting. Blessings!
As one that grew up in a solid happy home, I can tell you that it is the foundation of society and a child's happiness. Then also as one being part of a broken marriage, I can also see the pain and difficulties brought onto the children through divorce.
Work on the marriage, its the most important decision and relationship you can have.
Thanks for your post

I must remember to do so! I really meant to before and forgot to check it out
Yes, i want to give the weight on your point as, some times people take it so easy regarding the aspect of birth of child, yes most of the people showcase carelessness and we saw many cases where after birth, parents left their child outside and children have to live in orphanage and other stuff and can move into illegal stuff due lack of good life and teachings. So, it's really important for parents to properly think and ensuring that they are fully ready for the children, then they should move further into family planning, otherwise, if you are not ready then take time and never hurry, in marriage people can have safe sexual life if they want to avoid the unwanted pregnancy. It's really important to be ready and not to be regret because if child is born then it's the responsibility of parents and this relationship cannot be broken. Thanks for sharing and wishing you an great day. Stay blessed. 🙂
Thank you for your very valuable and thoughtful comment! Blessings for the week to come!
Welcome and thank you so much. Wishing you an great day. Stay blessed. 🙂
That's a very great post. I love how how you dealt with the relationship between parents and children. Parents are to make sure their children are raised in a godly way so that their foundation will be firm. Paul highlighted the need for this in Ephesians.
Once again God bless you.
the family is the greatest treasure that a human being has, and when the absence is unimaginable, I am Venezuelan and in my country all families are saying goodbye due to the high cost of living, so some stay in the country and others in exile, these people will not be reunited in years, if they are lucky
