Raising Good Boys: The 5 Values you Need to Teach your Son
I just want to share another article I read from http://www.smartparenting.com.ph . It’s a good read especially for those parents who have sons.
When I read through it, they seem so easy. Lucas is still so young, but I know in the simplest ways we can, we should already teach him the values enumerated here. I’ll keep praying to God that my husband and I will be able to instill these values to him.
Here I’ll quote the 5th value mentioned in the article which I consider the most important of all:
“5. The value of being prayerful
Wouldn’t you like to raise a son who has an unwavering faith in God? Start by praying together as a family. Try asking your son to lead some of the prayers and say it in his own words. Make it a daily habit and your son will grow up to be a prayerful person.
You can also strengthen his belief in a Higher Being by reading bible stories together so that your son can learn more about God and the values He teaches. Share your own stories too. Tell him how your faith helped you in your own life. Raising a son who is able to integrate faith in all that he does will help him face the challenges that come his way and guide him in choosing the right thing to do”. – Raising Good Boys: The 5 Values you Need to Teach your Son (www.smartparenting.com.ph)
