Parenting is a great art that many supposed parents lack. That you have a child does not automatically qualify you to be a parent. How can we ever be justified when we fail deliberately in this God-given and ordained role? It is a hard fact that once we begin to have children, we must so focus on building them that we may not have much time for ourselves. Does this mean that we must put a halt to our own continuous learning and development? The answer is no.
