Dear Sir / Madam,
Umenena kama elders kadhaa... I had compiled a ka-list for my kid(s) but the one you put above is so very on point. I'll just add God-fearing and honesty
On Point! Parents play a big role in support (financial/emotional etc) of the kids, quality healthcare, education, roof, food etc. Teach them too the culture of saving, entrepreneurship and investing at an early age so they grow up with independence mindset. When all above are passed from generation to generation, then you will have a generally well to do successful family in years to come.
The sad part is those parents who burden their kids with their own needs and that of their siblings. When a guy is 30, he is still paying fees for 8 of his siblings and his parents still expect handouts from him and he has a young family of his own! Stress mingi inaanza...and the cycle of poverty never leaves that family.
i.am.back!!!!
