Mixed Messages

As parents, I feel we have the responsibility to inform our kids on all aspects and ways of life. Kids being informed about the dangers and dislikes of society will better deal with the situations when or if they arise. Lets face it, we living in bad times, in a sick society that doesn't protect our kids like they protect the perverts that commit such acts when and if they are imprisoned.

Having 2 girls I know the kind of women I want my daughters to be. I expect them to be young girls and as adults young ladies. I want them to love their femininity as girls do. Like wear make-up and dress pretty. I don't want them to be overwhelmed with what society throws at them. I know all the Disney Princess movies turn out in marriage, and I don't feel that's a bad thing but I also want them to know that if it doesn't happen like they see it on a movie doesn't mean they aren't worthy of a perfect life. I want my daughters to know that love and family are the most important feelings to deal with and understand in life.

Growing up with just my mother as a guardian, father nowhere to be found, I turned out just fine. I want to be there for everything in my kids lives because even though I made it without my father I still wished I had that male role model in my life. Kids need both a male and a female roll model. My mother who is so strong and independent, a lady in all ways is the role model I want for my daughters. Her values I will instill in them so they can learn to be confident, but also know that beauty alone is not the key to get you through life, but that it is the key to self awareness and respect.

Television helps and also hurts the values that parents try to instill in their kids. Television shows that beauty is important in life. We never really see the women portrait as a hero but they do play an important role in the bringing and molding of life. In "Snow white" girls are taught that cooking and cleaning arte important. Commercials, movies, cartoons and most TV shows, tell kids that being sexy or conservative are important traits to learn. We as parents know that these are just stereotypes and it is our job to show them the difference. Even most girl toys are not educational, but are geared towards being sexy. Barbie flaunts around in skimpy skirts and halter tops. Being a man it's hard to teach girls to be feminine so I leave that to their mother to do.

All little girls and young ladies like to dress up but as parents it's our job to teach them that sexy is not always the safest way to be. There are dangerous people out there and with all these child kidnappings and such going on you can never be too careful. I just fear that television has already molded most young girls perception on how women are supposed to be.

My daughters as well as most of the other young girls in the neighborhood, are what you would call girly girls. I know my wife as well as most of the other mothers and women in the community will teach these girls that beauty is not everything. They should teach them to be intelligent, strong, courageous, nurturing and independent. Women are the one's that will teach them that even though one day they will find their prince, to know that education is important and they can be more than just a wife and a mother.

Men in the community should teach young boy's to be strong and to be leaders amongst their friends. We should teach them that as men they will have the responsibility to start their own families as well as help manage the one they have now. We want our son's to be masculine but also nurturing. We should teach them not to be a cry babies because men are supposed to be the bone of the family. We should also let them know that it is ok to show love and compassion. If we teach them to love and respect their mother's, it will help to mold them to respect all women accordingly.

Although our children can be shaped and molded by what they see and hear, it is our job as a whole to instill proper values in all kids to ensure that they have a fair shot at life without the possibility to falling victim to unknown dangers. This concludes my article on mixed messages and I hope everyone takes this seriously because our children are in danger everyday from perverted people that live among us. And unless informed they will not understand what types of sick individuals there are out there. We are the ones that are the guardians of our children. They depend on adults as a whole to protect their well being.

We as a community of people should organize all the kids together to teach them as a whole, that life is dangerous and to always be aware of their surroundings. If we teach our kids that it is better to play, and not stray away from a group, and if happens to do so in pairs. That way someone should be able to go get help or alert someone of bad happenings. We also need to teach our kids self defense. It is an important skill that can alter a bad situation. Most of us always wonder and think if a bad situation could happen to them and if so what can be done. Well the first thing we can do is to inform. It is proven that a active neighborhood watch by the citizen can safe guard the community a lot better than not having one at all. Thanks for reading.
