When you get a baby girl you need to become a lover and you will raise her well. Learn to sing songs, to play house and to tell stories. Learn to be a friend and to connect emotionally. That's essentially what girls need from their parents.
But when you get a baby boy you must become a figher. Apart from becoming their friend and mentor, you also must take up arms and ward off all the vultures hovering overhead to take him out.
Drugs. Po*******hy. Gaming. Irresponsibility.
The male species has forever been hunted and to walk them from childhood to adulthood is like the mission of those three men who broke through garrison of the enemy to fetch water for David at the well in Bethlehem. You must learn to pray and cover him.
You need a library and a prayer room in your house, even if they're just cabinets and corners in your sitting room at first. You need a library space to read books with him and discuss the battles waged against men, and how to win them intelligently. You need a prayer closet to show him how to ascend to Mount Sinai and receive the blueprint for his battles, or else he'll become a prisoner of war.
So many sons are today caged in prisons and rehabilitation centres after being caught by the enemy's missiles. Let him know what a pandemic there is against men so that he walks circumspectly.
Lastly, stop asking for a son if you don't have the energy to fight for him and train him war. You will get him and he will become a prisoner and trouble you for life. If you've been given daughters, content yourself with them and do the best you can.
Just to be clear, we're not saying raising a daughter is easy or that they don't get exposed to these weapons of mass destruction. What we're saying is that for boys the battle is ten times more fierce.
In the first family the parents lost two sons - one murdered the other, but the story of the daughters was so quiet that their names were not even mentioned. And that's the story of many families today. Daughters grow quietly but the sons are at war with things. Many times it's only one son and he's still a trouble child.
In short, rise your eyes to the fields and see. How many casualties are men, lying in the trenches bleeding and dying. The moment you get assigned a son, change your energy and walk in front of him with your shield and sword. Keep him close and teach him how to wield the sword. Do not stay far from him or he will be lured away into captivity.
