The next time you think of skipping a family meal for a night out with friend, think about this: your kids would do better if they see you at night. In the final analysis, the kind of support that children require can be acquired from simple things like family dinners. When you’re there, the children can tell you their problems and their difficulties outside the home.
Once again, the role of a good parent cannot be tied solely to the capacity for material acquisition, but also with the active participation of the parent in the children’s lives. If you keep ignoring your children, you end up losing their connection with them. You also end up losing their trust and interest.
