A Straight line... (Alignment)

*Kids*
On several occasions, i have watched parents allow a rebellious child to become the focus of their family life. Meanwhile, the compliant children get neglected. Before long, the "good kids" start pulling against Mom and Dad in order to regain the attention and affection they once enjoyed. Without a conscious decision on Mom and Dad's part, the vision shifts from raising morally and socially responsible children to "fix funke." Almost overnight, things are out of alignment. Family members are working toward different ends.

*Business*
In business, chances are, you will hit some bumps along the way. They will demand some attention. But be careful not to allow the pursuit of your vision to be replaced with crisis  management.

*Marriage*
Every individual contemplating marriage has a mental picture of what could be and should be in a family. you have a vision. Your vision or picture becomes an agenda. Once you are married you begin working toward the goal of arranging reality to match the picture. Where it becomes problematic is when two people have different pictures, different visions. Once they say i do, each begins working toward a slightly different goal. If their pictures are not in alignment, their visions will be in conflict. What could be and perhaps should be, won't be --in either case.

4 Reasons Not To Mess With Children



1. A Kindergarten teacher was observing her classroom of children while they were drawing. She would occasionally walk around to see each child's work.

As she got to one little girl who was working diligently, she asked what the drawing was.

The girl: replied, "I'm drawing God."

The teacher: paused and said, "But no one knows what God looks like."

Without missing a beat, or looking up from her drawing, the girl: replied, "They will in a minute."




2. One day a little girl was sitting and watching her mother do the dishes at the kitchen sink. She suddenly noticed that her mother had several strands of white hair sticking out in contrast on her brunette head.

She looked at her mother and inquisitively asked, "Why are some of your hairs white, Mum?"

Her mother replied, "Well, every time that you do something wrong and make me cry or unhappy, one of my hair's turns white."

The little girl thought about this revelation for a while and then said, "Momma, how come ALL of grandma's hairs are white?"


3. A sunday school teacher was discussing the ten commandments with his five and six years olds.

After explaining the commandment to "honor" thy father and thy Mother, he asked, "Is there a commandment that teaches us how to treat our brothers and sisters?"

Without missing a beat one little boy: (the oldest of a family) answered, "Thou shall not kill."


4. The children had all been photographed, and the teacher was trying to persuade them each to buy a copy of the group picture.

"Just think how nice it will be to look at it when you are all grown up and say, 'There's jenny, she's a lawyer,' or 'That's Michael, He's a doctor.'

A small voice at the back of the room rang out, "And there's the teacher, She's dead."

African Youth Facing Neglect



Some of us think Violence is still a crime of poverty. Our youth are angry at more than being poor. they are angry at being neglected emotionally more than materially. Some of the youth who are angry are driving nice cars and come from nice homes with nice parents. So why the inner Rage?

Parents pursuit of  wealth has left children emotionally poor and unable to cope with neglect . Too much or too little wealth is still neglect for kids looking for Love. For kids to sit down and eat dinner with their parent and then proceed to go out to murder, shows that parent are not connected to there kids emotionally. To read newspaper and find out a 16 year old stabs friend, to call the pizza delivery guy and then kill him when he arrives is a blaring sign of past parental neglect in not properly orientating our youth to who they really are.

Many may disagree with the notion that it could be parent who are guilty but hold on. Children were not born to murder and have a willful disregard for life. A lack of early childhood love is at the very core of our children's problem. There is a big difference between loving your child and spoiling him/her (i will discuss that in my next post)

To busy and no one watching the house. Parent maybe putting their job or a mate before their babies. Parent you are not on the plantation, so please give your offspring your undivided attention until they are full of love and void of Anger. Parent must understand that the love they received as they were growng up is not sufficent to raise kids with today.

We must all work to defuse this madness and connect all our youth into a collective show of unity.
