Beyond the Cry: The Wars We Wage in Silence

 "Beyond words, we birth stories in innocence

Drumming at the door of life

At the loud bang of an infant cry

Alive, we bleed our DNA to another generation

Fueled to be greater than us

Natured to be tomorrow's shining stars.

Beyond our thoughts, we give life to bravery

Seeing first steps speaking volumes to persistence

Unmasking dreams to be lived into adulthood

Provided we play our role today

For tomorrow history will be on us

When we quench the thirst that had been with us in rearing."

    There are battles we fight for our kids that are never seen by the world even by the kids themselves as they see it as part of their right. Some of this wars leave parents drained and lost in thoughts as families are sometimes the root cause of those problems. These problems can be birthed by greed and envy of the progress of those parents.  In the my most recent experence made to appreciate even more the role parents play in their kids life. This because  the wars that they fight for the kids on knees scrubbing the floor is unaccountable.

    Being a parent does not mean just giving birth to someone but goes beyond that, which means being there for the children. At the same time it calls for you to sacrifice your sleep and time to ensure that you nature your children to grow well encouraged and inspired. The lack of thereof leads to most problems the society is now facing because if a kid lacks the guidance of their parents they tend make poor desicions. This put emphasis on the parent to play an active role in the upbring of a child as money will not teach your kids to morally strong.

    Here in Africa in most countries the role of the parent have been lacking as we become more advocates of financial security over being really there. Most kids lack the touch of their parents as it is considered to be secondary which is a false narrative. This can be traced to what the media is pushing making us part of the experiment that breaks tomorrows generation spirit in our actions. In Zimbabwe most families have become child headed as parents are seeking greener pastures to provide for their kids back home and some arre raised by maids. This raise a problem for tomorrow as those kids grow up not knowing the role parents play in the upbring of children.
