EDUCATION II: PARENT BEST INVESTMENT GIFT IS EDUCATION!

Nadai orang enda sayau ka anak....

The birth of a child is the greatest joy of every married couple most especially when it’s the first child. The feeling of given life to another human is overwhelming and calls for celebration.

But beyond the celebration, comes the harsh reality of bringing up the child in the right way, right direction, right path and securing his/her future for a better tomorrow.

So, how you can successfully secure your child’s future?

Parents are faced with the responsibility of molding their child’s future. The pattern of a child’s adult life depends on the effectiveness of the efforts of his/her parents.

In today’s world, education is KEY to a successful future and is the best gift parents can give to their child. Education does not only enlighten the child but also equips the child with the necessary tools to face the challenges of the world.

Quality education in today’s world is quite/very expensive but its benefits cannot be quantified. Education makes a child eligible for the highly competitive good jobs available.
  • “If you think education is expensive, try ignorance?”
  • “If you think education is secondary, try illiteracy?”
  • “If you think education is useless, try jobless?”
  • “If you think education is hard, try hard labor job?”
  • “If you think education is unnecessary, try poverty?”
Saving for tomorrow is a prudent way of dealing with challenges of life. You should ‘imbibe’ the culture of saving in your child.

Children are our biggest assets given by God. We’re the prophets of our children and failing to father/mother them, we directly/indirectly doomed them in miserable circumstances.

Children have no basic needs for money because their parents always provide their needs but family friends and relatives always give them money.

As a parent, you should make your child see the importance of saving for the rainy days instead of spending the money given to him/her on irrelevant things.

The choices we make in life make or ‘mar’ our future. Making choices is a test of self-confidence, self-esteem and the ability to take responsibility of the consequences of your actions.

Humans begin to make choices right from a tender age when they have to make friends and either accept or reject certain things offered to them.

When a child is properly taught how to make good choices, he/she is able to make life Changing decisions in the midst of conflicting choices.

No one knows what the future holds. Investing in our child’s future is the most valuable long term investment we can make. The foundation of a child is laid in the early years of a child’s life.

Early child hood is the right time to break the chains of poverty and ensuring that no matter the challenges of tomorrow, our child will have something to rely and survive on.

The right investment will yield good results by the time our child comes of age to take on the world. It’s the joy of every parent to see their child successful and prosperous in future. You too can give your child that better life you desire or never had.

All it takes is to be prudent in dealing with the affairs of your child at the early years of your child’s life.

To me, education is the best investment gift to our children. If they are educated and equipped with vast intellectual knowledge, they can have anything they want.

Education is human needs to survive and maintain life sustainability. Give your child the best KEY to success, self-independent, survive, prosper and propel well.


Thank you.
