Lessons in magic from a mysterious boy who belonged to a hidden Ferisher court called the Wild _ I couldn't think of anything that would horrify my parents more. Therefore, the proposition became exponentially more enticing.

Let your child be the torch of truth and they shall shine over the entirety of the human society brightening even the darkest corners.

Force your kids to pursue success and they shall be drowned into the abyss of characterlessness, but let them pursue excellence and they shall rise as glorious Gods.

Do not raise creepy crawlers my dear braveheart parents. Raise mighty humans with Himalayan strength in their veins. Give them the voice that has gone extinct in today__ society. And if there is only one thing you could give to your children, then give them courage _ courage to pursue their passion _ courage to trample every obstacle in their path _ courage to keep walking even when their heart bleeds in agony.

Let your children nourish their knack, for that knack shall one day provide them with the way to live with dignity and contentment.

Human making is our mission, but if you break the very soul of the would-be humans, then there will be no human to raise.

There is nothing glorious about creating life out of passionate penetration. Even the animals can do that. The real glory comes when the life you create becomes the help in the lives of countless other humans.

More than Captain America your kids need Amelia Earhart _ more than Ant Man, they need Abraham Lincoln - more than Green Arrow they need Gandhi _ more than Iron Man they need Isaac Newton.

If you want to know about sex don't ask your parents. They don't have any and know nothing about it. Find out yourself

Feed your child ideas of peace, harmony and compassion but at the same time give them courage to defend their identity and dignity.

Let your child see you doing a good deed instead of you telling him or her to do it, and the little child shall one day grow up to become a real kind human being.

Let them learn at school whatever they learn to pass the examinations, but at home let the education that you provide be the kind that widens their perceptions and takes away the germs of prejudices that infect them while they are out in the world.

There will come a time when a person you most likely pushed out through your vagina and nursed from yournipples, whose bottom you wiped, and whose snot and spit you cleaned up over several sleep-starved years will apprehend you with a mixture of boredom and irritation and say, __et a life, Mum.__his would be a good time to remember that a) violence never solved anything; b) teenagers don__ have a full brain yet _ the prefrontal cortex that controls the ability to make important distinctions, like who controls the pocket money, only kicks in around the age of twenty-four; and c) you are, in fact, the adult.

You will need to stay calm as you witness the candy floss in your daughter__ smile harden into brittle bitchiness. You will need to muster a new resolve as your son__ fascination with Pokémon shifts to porn. You will have to recalibrate your mothering instinct to accommodate the notion that not only do your children poop and burp, they also masturbate, drink and smoke. As their bodies, brains and worlds rearrange themselves, you will need to do your own reshuffling. You will come to see that, though you gave them life, they__e the ones who__e got a life. They__e got 1700 friends on Facebook. They__e got YouTube accounts (with hundreds of sub- scribers), endless social arrangements, concerts, Valentine__ Day dances and Halloween parties. What we have _ if we__e lucky _ is a __hanks for the ride, Mum, don__ call me, I__l call you,_ as they slam the car door and indicate we can run along now.

Some parents whenever their children have an independent thought they wrap them up in warm ignorance and send them to bed

Human making is our mission.
