In my little experience as a parent has helped me appreciate what's like to take responsibilities. Watching my wife take care of our five months old son has helped realise parenting is a selfless service and rewards is actually needed for anyone who goes through the rigors of making sure their children do well.
It's quite interesting to know that our parents borrow atimes to make sure we feed,clothing and even have shelter.
Having to think of our my mother took the pain to made sure we feed well so as to avoid sickness and diseases. Even the making sure that we are always safe has helped understand parenting is the most critical job anyone could ever do.
We should remember there's no formal education to parenting and there's no award for best parent, but we all know that the best way to know a good parent is to see them have a good child.
Children that are successful are the rewards for good parenting.
Our society should also find a way of rewarding parents,it's quite a task.
