OUR FOUNDATION

The home is the foundation of the development of every individual and parents and guardians are the founding architects and builders.

The first few years of a person's life matters so much that it can influence and direct the trajectory and the rest of an individual's life and choices.

Before a child becomes strong or reasonable enough to take decisions and "control" of their lives, it behoves the parents or guardians to be knowledgeable and sensible to do that for them.

Even if a child strays or becomes a "black sheep" as he or she grows, the inculcated training and imbibed discipline that formed the foundation of their upbringing will help to redirect them.

Every dysfunctional individual is a product of dysfunctional home or unintentional parenting and dysfunctional homes are a product of ignorant and negligent individuals who happen to be a parent or guardian.

It takes a knowledgeable individual to build a decent home and an intentional person to be a virtuous parent or guardian.

Every child and person deserves a decent home and a virtuous parent or guardian. Our society is in dire need of such.

I'll like to reiterate again that, marriage is work and parenting is hard work. Both of them are prepared for. Marriage and parenting are full-time jobs.

Don't desire any of them if you know you're not ready to sincerely make it work and put in the necessary efforts else, you make life more hard and difficult for you and others.

You can still live fulfilled or become who God wants you to be without getting married or having children. Enough of dysfunctional homes/families and individuals in the society.

Remain inspired, purposeful, and successful.
