First Teacher (Dear Mothers)

Mother is the first teacher of every exemplar and every scoundrel. She is the only personality who teaches the first word to call her and morality that the child has to follow throughout the life in order to make her child grow into a total personality. Whatever the mother teaches her child it creates permanent impression in the heart and mind of the child and so the life of the child gets embodied with the mother’s teaching. The influence of mother over her children will be strong that she will make a dull child into a brilliant child.

A Jewish saint said, “God could not be everywhere and therefore he made mothers". Yes, It is the mother who takes care to fulfill every need of her child while rearing from birth to make her child great and energetic.

Mothers always comes first after God,  not even husbands not even friends not not not...  It is the mother who sees the first smile on the lips of the child and makes it a permanent one with her teaching.

She provide basic love, care,  protection,  guidance to her child right from child birth so when this basic need for security and love is not fulfilled, the child reacts, developing unfounded fears and lashing out with undifferentiated anger.

Mothers nowadays often  leave their children’s education to television, video games, social media, the state, or their peers. Too many parents have abdicated their responsibility, largely because they no longer have a God-ordained vision for the family and for education.

All the holy books shows that God has entrusted children's responsibilities upon parents,  where mothers are regarded as the first. The future  Our society is on pious mothers.

The person who impresses the child the most is always a mother. Strive hard to produce better husbands and good wives so as to make our society great.

On attitude  be the best example,  once you have good habit and morals you don't have to tell them they will follow your footsteps,  but if your teaching is contrary to your actions,  my dear you are just wasting your time.

You know the type of children your husband want,  don't let him mold them to his taste do it first because the way he would might hurt your feelings. 
Most great people in the world learn from their mothers,  when we mention scholars,  scientists,  religion leaders etc,  most of them will tell you they learn first from their mothers. My sister  why not yours?

Don't allow your children to get exposed to pornography,  be their first sex education teacher. 

Don't only be their first teacher,  be their first friend,  first diary, first,  first, first... and make sure you are their best...
