Over the years I have noticed that children are mostly a reflection of their parents. Yes, teachers provide them with an education, but most of their traits (e.g., honesty, dishonesty, courage, cowardice, bravery, chivalry, morals) are picked up from their parents. The example a parent set for his/her children is extremely important. That is why it is important for parents to spend time with their kids. Society today has children doing way too much to try and get ahead. Problem is that it injurs the child/parent relationship.
