~Parents Protect Your Children~

As parents it is our job to protect our children and make sure that they grow up in an environment that is nurturing and comfortable for them to learn and express themselves. As parents and parental figures (for those who do not have children) it is our job to make sure the children are equipped to grow up to be strong leaders and be able to critically think and make decisions on their own.

When you allow your child to get hurt in your care not accidentally but knowingly then you are doing a disservice to your child by not acting as his or her protector by putting them in harms way. There is no justifying knowingly putting your child in harms way and acting as if selfish wants and needs are more important than the safety of your children. Under no circumstance is this ever okay to do.

I do believe that some people when they have children they grow into being a parent and parenthood makes them a better person. And then I believe there are people who never fully get that parent skill that allows them to put their children first. When you are a parent once you have a child that child should come first. I am not saying that fun times are over, absolutely not, all parents deserve to have a break every now and then for there sanity and well-being. 

What I am saying is that a genuine parent who is not selfish will know how to separate their needs from their child’s needs and know that risking the safety of their child is never okay to do. It is your duty to provide and protect your children and the sad thing is in many households the person that should be the protector is the one that the child/children is in need of protection from.
