A CHILD
A child is God's Incarnate. A child is a rare gift of nature to mankind. Children lead mankind to God. Their future is not in their physical beauty, but in their intellectual development. Instead of finding faults with them or complaining of their shortcomings, we should lead the way by setting examples.
Our greatest gift to them is to teach them moral values. The Divine should be instilled in the child while still in the womb.
Children become spoilt either by too much pampering or by too rigid upbringing. Instead of amassing abundant wealth for the children, teach them to lead a fulfilling and fruitful life even in times of want or poverty..
