ADULTOS DEL FUTURO

The importance of properly educating children the adults of the future Parents always want to give their children the best but what is best for them Providing them with food shelter affection and support seems to be an implicit responsibility But even more importantly parents must teach children to be good people An old Chinese story tells of a bandit who had committed so many crimes that he was finally brought to court and sentenced to death Before his execution the criminal asked for one last wish to be rocked by his mother one last time The judge granted the request and when the mother approached crying and opened her arms to embrace him The bandit bit her hard Confused and hurt the mother asked her son why he was hurting the one who had raised him for so many years The thief with tears in his eyes answered When I was a child and first took advantage of a man you didn't scold me Instead you praised me and told me that I was very smart When I first brought back what I had stolen from our house you didn't scold me Instead you flattered me and called it an act of compassion towards the family You are the reason I became a reckless thief who is about to be executed Why aren't you clapping for me now If you had disciplined me every time you found me doing something wrong I would not be standing in front of the guillotine today This story provides a clear example of how a parent who only meets their children's material needs fails to fulfill the most important role for them To provide a moral education worthy of a human being The child is subject to both good and bad influences That is why every word and action of his parents is a form of education for him The people of ancient China used to say It is a father's failure if you raise and feed a son but do not teach him to distinguish between good and bad While the Chinese sage Lao Tzu was teaching Each mature person develops at a different pace But the education of a person before adulthood generally has the greatest impact on their character If a child is able to correctly distinguish good from bad the goodness of evil and the truth from a lie It will be able to make good and wise choices If children around the world were taught to be honest kind and compassionate This will make them immune to social pressure that leads them to do bad things And we wouldn't have to worry about them making bad choices and ruining their lives Let us ensure that the low moral level of today's society does not have a greater impact on the lives of future generations To teach our children to distinguish good from bad parents must first know how to distinguish it themselves In a chaotic society like today's this seems to be the only way to create a positive environment for our children the adults of the future
