Make her smile
12/27/2007
Just a smile from your own child can make a difference out of your self and it can even lift your spirit high. Knowing that she is happy and all right and then what more you can ask for. A smile in exchange for a hard day’s work would be enough to make your self feel comfortable and happy instead of being stressed or exhausted in working for a whole day. That is what parents are looking for with their children.
But with the world that we are living now, everyone is working hard and no time for their kids, we are raising very materialistic children out of them. Parents do compensate the time lost in spending it with their kids and fill them up with material stuff. For instance, your daughter will attend her first communion, aside from giving her a beautiful communion dress, you are giving her a diamond earrings to match the dress. If she has been invited as a flower girl, instead of buying a discount flower dress, you will buy the most expensive dress out of a variety of flower girl dresses.
It is the parents and the society that needs to be blame of raising materialistic children and obese children. These are the effects of being busy and aiming for having huge amount of accumulated wealth.
