Only few teenagers will choose their parents when it comes to role modeling – Pastor Adeboye

One of the most important aspects of parenting is being a role model to the children. In a situation where the parents cannot have a reasonable influence on their children, such children might not see them as influential or inspiring. In respect of this, a source shared one of the sermons of the General Overseer of The Redeemed Christian Church of God, Pastor EA Adeboye on one of the most crucial areas of the impact of parents on their children. The cleric has drawn a very practical example from the instance of carrying out some social experiment in that, if ten teenagers were to be brought out to chose their role model or mentors, few out of them would mention their parents. This is because, the lifestyle of some of the parents are not worthy of emulation.

According to an anonymous source, Pastor EA Adeboye has reiterated the fact that the major reason why social vices are on the increase in the world today is that there are few leaders among the elders that are around, hence, the young ones, most especially teenagers and young adults find it very difficult to have anyone they could see as their mentors or elders they could trust as their role model.

According to a source, the cleric, has struck a balance between the younger years of children and the effect of good parenting, which is good life when they are grown. The cleric also narrated his orientation about parenting that, he had had a mentality of being a good role model to his children, since they were very young. He already knew that if they must be mentored right, he must conduct himself as a good father both in deed and in words.
