What a surprise

Submitted by Krentz Sainte


In this video it shows how a family deals with their core values. When different families appreciate the hard work of their children they will celebrate. In a family the parents has a big influence on the gender roles because they push their children into the role society want them to have. The ideal family life is to have feminine and masculine norms in the family so that the children know what to expect in life. The parents try to set the standards high for their children to work hard and become successful. No matter what age of a child a true family will express love and happiness through all the experiences and achievements they put the parent threw.

In a family the expectations of children education is to put a lot of effort into school. This video clip shows and expresses why some values are important. The idea of meeting all the goals that are laid out for kids to be successful makes our parent extremely happy. The parents in every decent or street family want their children and their future generations of families to be successful and to not suffer any pain from struggling in society.
I can start to understand why parents try to lay out our future in their footsteps. The potential that children have to be something in life is all a parent ever wanted. It is very flattering to think that your kids could be a doctor or lawyer these levels of success is highly praised and even the “Cosby” brag about their child  or in-laws being successful and when they think about another career they are disappointed.

    Almost all of the Cosby show episodes are appropriate examples of how a good family operates. I recall some critics saying how it was unrealistic because no family could run so smoothly. But maybe it was what we needed to see in order to set an example and inspire both children and parents to be better. You really hit the good points about parents expecting more as they plan towards the hopeful perfection of their children's adult years.

  2. I agree with your point on the significance of core family values. There are several opportunities for families to educate their children on such values. They can do so by inviting knowledge into their home to explore historical and present events. There may be days when independence or patience could be discussed, or moments when amnesty, modesty and honesty are required. In my opinion it is vital that children are taught how to deal with different life's challenges. However, more importantly they need to have the opportunity to discuss how they feel. This will assist them on discovering how to use values and apply it appropriately with the values they gain knowledge of.

    The Cosby show was a phenomenal sitcom that educated viewers on real family values. For instance, they exemplified factual family circumstances where they resolve it, and more importantly learned from it. However, I do recognize that core family values perhaps are different in other household families according to race, gender and ethnicity.

    Specifically in my household without core family values, my children could descend in to obnoxious and hazardous predicaments. Our values are to just exist, develop, respect and rejoice. I suppose by me cultivating moral structures, it will motivate them to be able to make life decisions that will influence them profoundly as they move forward in their expedition through life.

    In conclusion, core family values are imperative to develop inside every family. Values are easy to establish but maybe complicated to sustain. It surely takes obedience and frequent reminders. Nonetheless, it is the greatest resolution for achievement.
