1.0 BACKGROUND OF STUDY

Education has been singled out as a major Key to development, particularly because it opens up other opportunities and options for the development of the human potential which in turn lead to more productive life.  

The need for adequate planning for ones life cannot be over emphasised. A Parson without a plan for his life in a ship in the high sea without a rudder. An individual person without plans is not likely To achieve much in life.

How can you makes better plan for your life?

There is no doubt that you can again inspiration to plan for your life if you put into practice some of the witting saying of our elders. I wish to remind you of that popular radio expression. The words of our elders are words of wisdom. If you want to be great, wake up at five. After you are great, you may sleep till seven.

WHAT PLAN DO YOU HAVE FOR YOUR CHILDREN?

As parents, you should understand that one of the most important things that you can bequeath to your children is a xxx and functional education. You should therefore show more concern in your children’s growth and development. You should enforcehoine training and ensure that your words are good citizens. You are expected to ensure that your children have a good start in life by giving them personal core and affection as well as soured education. You should be encouraged to develop good habits. They should be industrious, trendily, accommodating and be willing to be of service to others.

Unlers parents help in planning for the future growth an development of their children, most of our youths will not achieve tangible results, parents are to be involved in the choice of vacant oil for their children. They are to liase with the school to ensure that their children become disciplined citizens.

Given should remember that men of nowdays do not want many woman who are a liability to the family men want woman who can be gainfully employed and who can add to the family budget.
