Children... are our legacy. Our responsibility. They are our destiny and we are theirs. The extent to which we fail as parents, we fail as Gods children.
There is a divine moment in our lives when we become One. It is called pro-creation and it is reborn continually and forever in the future we call children. They are our destiny and we are theirs. The extent to which we fail as parents... we fail as God's Children.
Children who cling to parents or who don't want to leave home are stunted in their emotional, psychological growth.
I believe that the first 8 years are most important and the time in a child's life when parents must be absolutely and completely present.
