KEEPING PROMISES TO CHDREN....#Review

One time my pastor said before now when ever he and the wife want to go out they will trick the child to go play while they hide out and go, but he notice that the child will later discover that they went out and would start carrying feeling disappointed, then he decide to stop the hide and seek game they were playing with the child cause sooner or later the child will grow with that mindset of his parent ways lying to him and would hardly believe them ever again.

So he decided to stop and have to be telling the child the whole truth whenever they're leaving, over time this gave the child a sense of belonging and it makes him feel safe, he didn't have to bother or cry when ever they are going out no crying anymore, now as the child grows he will learn how to trust the parent better.

This actually a mistake most parent don't realise on time, tricking their child sooner or later they lost trust and confidence in them and most times began to lean on peer group and friends for advise which most of the time is always a wrong advise...

Know that your children are following after your footsteps whatever you do with them stays with them as they grow so ensure you as a parent portray good character, honesty and sincerity of heart when dealing with them or acts in front of them so they too can become trustworthy adult when they grow up....
