Being a MOM
Every since I was a small child I always knew that I wanted to be a mom. A mom of three to be exact. I wanted to be a mom like my mom. Strong and kind. The mom that all my friends loved and could come to with anything. The kind of mom that would do anything for her children.
I am now a mom of two and have a love for my children that my mom only described as a love you will never understand until you have your own. She was so right. The love I have can not be described.
Lately I have been having conversations with my husband on how we will be raising our children. How to raise them right. How to keep them from harm. What we would do if they were bullied and how to keep them from being a bully. Teaching them about sex before marriage and how to keep them faithful to God. However, I don’t want to be the type of mom that stops her children from experimenting on a site like m porn when they are an appropriate age. I must stop them from making the same mistakes that we made. All of these questions are very important to me but so hard to answer. I know that I can only do the best that I can. Be the best mom that I can be. Keep them in church and show them love. Lead by example, show them the positives of being a women of God. Teach them that marriage is sacred.
But this still worries me. The way this world is today. It seems like us as parents have it 10x harder than parents did 20 years ago. So much technology, drugs and sex are out there to soak up our little one’s lives. It’s more accessible than before. When you used to pick up a date from the side of the road, now you can book it all online (see https://www.escortdirectory.com/escorts-frankfurt-197 for an example). 20 years ago, the porn industry were so different. It was nowhere near as popular or easily accessible. It used to be locked in the back room of an adult shop, hidden in a magazine. Today, it is easy for anyone to access videos on sites like tubev.sex. As well as this, mobile phones have changed the way we have to parent as well. Years ago, mobile phones were not even a thing. If you ever wanted to make a phone call, you had to ask to use the home landline whilst your parents monitored your call. Now it is not uncommon for a child to have a mobile before he reaches high school. With this responsibility of having your own mobile comes the temptation of things like Live 121 Phone Sex. These are all fine for adults but not children, and I want to protect my children from that.
Keeping them safe from the monsters that haunt my dreams.
I know that I can only do the best and hope and pray that all though there is bad in this world that there is also good. Good people to keep them safe. Godly people to show them right from wrong.
All I can do is pray and try not to worry so much. I guess that it just comes with being a parent.
