THE RISE OF WOMEN IN SOCIETY

 

ARTICLE:

Our parents are our pro-creators and according to Bill Clinton," the most difficult job in the world is not being a president. It is being a parent".  Our parents are responsible not only for our financial needs but even for our basic education.  It was our folks who stood up and became our first educators.  Our cognitive and motor skills developed due to their guidance since we were still toddlers.

It is the parents who taught their children the duties and responsibilities of a citizen. They are the role models of their descendants.  Through them, the values that they inculcated molded the characteristics of their offspring.  Through time, effort and sacrifice, it is said that parents are the best teachers.
