clearheaded:
I have learned time and time again that you can not force others to do the right thing, particularly with telling them how they should raise their children.
The only thing that can be done is to teach your own children what is right and wrong, and hope they internalize it.
We live in a time of extreme materialism (which is the source of many, if not all of the “crisises” that we claim to exist). If you are happy not having everything, and show your children that you can be happy with less, Bezras Hashem your children will escape the materialism that surrounds them.
I’m not saying there is anything wrong with having, but there must be priorities.
