Becoming a parent is one of life's most exhilarating experiences and it changes things forever.
Along with the joy comes the responsibility of ensuring a safe and nurturing environment for your children and the challenge of guiding them not only to be successful in life on their terms but to be good human beings.
Parenting is a serious business. There are responsibilities that come with the role of parent.
One of the first lessons for a new parent is learning to put the needs of another person before theirs.
This applies to physical, emotional and financial needs. Children are expensive and part of being a good parent is going without so children can have the necessities of life.
