FOCUS ON THE ANSWER AND WHAT DO WE SAY TO THIS?

 

*FOCUS ON THE ANSWER AND WHAT DO WE SAY TO THIS?*

                                     

 
I know of a couple who had a young girl stay with them. The young girl assists with household tasks and also looks after their children.
 
The girl is quite diligent, and the family is also doing their best. However, this couple's style of correction is a cause for concern. They don't hit her, but their weapon of warfare is in their mouth.
 
When she makes a mistake, there is nothing she will not be told. Those words must be uttered in a loud voice for you to understand them. She'll even get a new christening. The terrible aspect is that instead of focusing on how to fix the situation, the focus will be on her and the error she made.
 
Someone had to yell at the man one day to get him to focus on how to address the problem before it got out of hand.
 
It's part of their daily routine, and even their little children call her names to express their displeasure. Surprisingly, they don't see anything wrong with their method of correcting her and, by implication, their children in this manner.Correcting a child should teach them how to deal with a situation in the moment as well as how to avoid it in the future.
 
As parents and guardians, we should place a greater emphasis on problem solving and take every opportunity to teach our children how to avoid similar situations in the future, not on themselves or the errors they have made.
 

*WHAT DO WE SAY TO THIS?*

                                     



 
I got a call from a beloved brother and friend a few days ago, asking what I think he should do to solve this puzzle, since he doesn't seem to understand why some parents are like this.
 
He runs a tutoring center where he prepares students for external exams. Parents will bring their children to enroll, pay the first and second installments, and then they will be on their way.
 
They will not pay the remaining installment at the end of the day. In order to avoid paying, they will do everything they can to disconnect themselves and their children from the system.
 
I can relate to what he was going through because I've worked with  variety of private schools for a number of years.
It always amazes me how some parents will want to eat their cake and still have it.
 
You want your children to attend school, but you don't want to pay the school fees. These are the same parents who will criticize school administrators for underpaying their employees.
 
This same group of parents will gladly pay for school social events and display themselves as the high and mighty. Nonetheless, they have failed to meet their responsibility to the school.
 
Dear Parents, Please understand that schools are not run as voluntary organizations. It's not a charity outlet.
 
It's a different story if the money isn't accessible right away and you ask for more time to pay. But claiming and professing wickedness against your family in order to avoid payment beats me.
 
Your failure to pay damages not only the business but also the people who rely on it. How will they be able to meet their financial responsibilities now that their income has been cut off?
 
Stop whining about the school system's downward spiral.
Be RESPONSIBLE.

I am Pastor E O Gabriel.
A very blessed evening.

EVOLVE OR DISSOLVE 2 AND DO YOU HAVE A TEMPLATE?

  *EVOLVE OR DISSOLVE 2 AND DO YOU HAVE A TEMPLATE*?                                     Another reason many have dissolved or gone extinct is that the visionary is unwilling to stretch.   They are not flexible or willing to change their ways; they prefer to stay the same. They don't want to be bothered with having to learn new things, meet new people, do it differently, or add a new twist to it.   It may even entail spending more money, and you may even risk losing money, clients, or staff.   Stretching entails a great deal; it challenges your brain, alters your thinking, is demanding, and entails a new level of commitment and responsibilities.   They are afraid of confronting new challenges because it is like starting over.Maybe you should be told that the world is no longer in its primitive state; it has grown beyond where it was when you arrived.    As it grows, things wear out and new things emerge because those who came before you accepted the challenge. They took
