Do you see all children as a blessing? Do they burden you or are they treasures immeasurable?

Question

How have they blessed and enriched your life?

All my children past, present, and to come enrich my life even if they live with me only an hour.

Answer 1

kids would absolutely s*%$ me up the wall but at the end of the day i rekon i would go to bed and so madly in love with them ( every parent almost) knowing i had bought such a wonderful child to this life...

Answer 2

Oh, that is so sweet of you to reach out to those that need a parent.  I love all my children also, past and present!  They are a special treasure and gift from the heart of God!

Answer 3

Rug rats. They need to be vacuumed up.

Answer 4

All children are potential blessings.  With a proper upbringing, this potential will most likely be realised.  Some deviate and become abominations to their parents though.

Answer 5

Ugh, sorry, but most of 'em annoy me to no end...

Sure, there are a couple that are kind of cool though.

Answer 6

For the most part blessings.  They do have their moments though, I won't lie about that.  But I wouldn't trade my kids for anything in this world.

Bless you for fostering and adopting.

Answer 7

the more children people have only makes it harder for the rest of us

Answer 8

People have the wrong idea about reproduction. Only the genetically fit should be allowed to reproduce, otherwise, the offspring of those genetically inferior parents shall be the burden of society, and as a result will continue the cycle anew by having genetically unfit children as well.  

Answer 9

Lots of abortions, huh?

I'm Atheist!

Answer 11

I work with preschool children since 1991 and each child that God bestows upon me is a true blessing.

Answer 12

Children are a paradox. They are a parent's greatest joy and their greatest pain. "Wouldn't give a nickel for 'em but wouldn't sell 'em for all the money in the world"  

You can hate the way they act and still love them more than Tom can tell.

Answer 13

Not all children are blessings. Children grow up into detestable adult beings. For example, my ex-fiancee.

Answer 14

I view them as a blessing because they can often identify the counterfeit and the real people. A visually- impaired child in my community has taught me the value of praise. She does not need anyone to prompt her to clap her hand or say 'Thank You Jesus!' Sometimes when you least expect it, they may hug you and say"I love you" They prepare the most enduring gifts. However, they need to be encouraged- nurtured like a tender plant.

Answer 15

ask jesus

Answer 16

I like kids....how are you having kids you only have for an hour?

Answer 17

They are a treasure and gifts from God, my daughter Grace was born 10 weeks early and now she is nearly 3 months old, she is precious and loved as all babies are.

Grace has taught us how to love someone who is fragile and to have patience, and to thank God for giving us such a beautiful daughter

You have a very special gift, a gift of love given to you from God to love all those special children

God bless you

Answer 18

children are definitely a blessing and a gift from God. God bless you for taking in those with health problems and loving them, you must be a very special person for many would not take them in. I have 4 children and 12 grand children and they are what keeps me going.  

Answer 19

they are both a blessing and a curse . a curse because of the responsibility . a blessing because of the joy they can bring you .  

Answer 20

Yes. They are the most wonderful of all human existence. If only I could be one again.

Answer 21

a blessing of course. there are problems, but you just have to work through them like a normal family. or watch Christopher Titus on youtibe to learn what not to do or what to do. I love Christopher Titus. He's a comedian, if you don't know already.

Answer 22

I doubt if Hitlers' mother thought of her son as a blessing or the 'Ted Bundies' of this world. Still, I think I know where you're coming from and I would think that all those children who share and have shared in your life would consider you a blessing. Sorry for being so blunt, but sometimes we have to take the blinkers off to see exactly the kind of world we're living in.
