Children are gifts with unique purposes
Every child is a gift from God, created with a unique purpose.
No two children are the same, and each carries special talents meant to be discovered and nurtured so they can fulfil their God-given potential.
The Pressure of Academic Success
Around the world, many parents place a high value on academic achievement.
Good grades, top positions, awards, and praise bring joy and pride.
While these accomplishments are commendable, an overemphasis on academics can sometimes lead parents to measure a child’s worth solely by their performance in school.
Talent Beyond the Classroom
Not every child is born to be a book lover.
Some may struggle academically but excel in areas like football, singing, dancing, cooking, drawing, or skilled trades such as carpentry, plumbing, or tailoring.
Yet, many parents feel disappointed when their children do not excel academically, even when they possess other valuable gifts.
Identifying and Nurturing a Child’s Strengths
It is crucial for parents to take time to observe, listen, and understand their children’s natural abilities.
By identifying a child’s strengths and interests early, parents can encourage and support them to grow confidently in their chosen paths.
True success comes when a child is guided to develop the talents God has placed within them, allowing them to thrive in ways that reflect their unique purpose.
