Provide for the needs of your children
Provide for the needs of your children

Parents have a duty to provide for the needs of their children.

Sometimes children may have needs that we cannot fill. In those cases, our extended family or others may be able to help. If there is a death or disability, our families can often help us with emotional challenges and in assisting with each child’s care.

Providing for the needs of children blesses the children and helps parents to grow and develop.
