The Benefits Of Raising Children

Introduction
Being raised by both parents is different than being raised by just one. The methods used to raise children influences the way in which they develop. Raising children helps to determine the path one will take for the rest of his or her life. What one is taught while being raised remains for a lifetime. Children being raised by both parents will most likely lack the benefit of having both children in the household. It would be interesting to see how children’s lives are affected because of who raised them. The focus is particularly on black families because according to research, they have the most amount of single parent households, above all other families.
Children who were raised by both parents are most likely to be more successful than those who only had one parent. A child with both parents will be more likely to own their own business and be in less trouble, whereas the child with only one parent will be more likely to get into more trouble and not be successful in the future. Some are, by both parents, just a father or mother, or by parents that are spilt, meaning the child lives with one parent but still spends time with the other. Who you are raised by can affect you in a positive or negative way sometimes both. How you are raised is important because it can show future parents which way best benefits their child as they grow older.
