Both of my children were raised in the same home, same rules and guidelines, same serious times, same fun times, but both are so uniquely different. I can see the good in them that was passed on by us, and yes, there's those little negative things as well. We as parents did the very best we could with God's leading, failed now and then, did great other times, and trust the outcome with the Lord. They are His.

I would have loved to learn the things my kids can learn today, or in most recent years. The opportunities they have are amazing! But parents still need to drive how that is received. With so many choices in what they can do today, it's no wonder our young people find it difficult to make choices for their lives and are often confused. We have 3 daughters who are making their way in life and 2 others still trying to work out what they want to do. They're all in their 20s. But as for how they've turned out? Yes, we're happy that they are well-adjusted young adults. I think it’s the same the world over. I would have loved to learn the things my kids can learn today, or in most recent years.
