Precious

Children are precious. I could not think of anyone can provide a valid reasoning refuting that. Well, at least, that is my opinion. And I believe it is shared by a lot of parents out there. From the moment they are conceived, it is a ‘reflex’ for a mom to be that extra careful for the welfare of the unborn child. And then comes the moment of birthing. While moms may have their stories of childbirth pains, I am sure it is easily overshadowed by the joy of having a child.

Of course the joy for this precious gift goes on. And despite the challenges brought about by raising children, we have great reason to rejoice for being blessed by children. I am still a relatively young parent. But I know that even as time goes on, I will enjoy having my children even if I could not really officially call them ‘kids’.

I think that the importance of children is true even for families faced with separation. While I would encourage each family to really try all means to keep itself intact, the topic of child custody would sometimes be inevitably raised up. And if separation has already happened, I would be glad for parents showing how much they love their children despite the odds.
