The wisest way to lead our child to a positive life is to teach religion to them...

I disagree. It's wise to teach children about religions, not to force them into a certain religion.

Quote
With the increasingly free and easy access in this era, it is very natural for us as parents to worry about the future of our children. people who are involved with prostitution and drugs certainly do not have a strong belief in religion, they only care about lust so that has led them since they were young to know more about religion, according to your religion.

What about drug cartels from Central and South America? They build churches, have altars in their houses, wear jewelry with religious symbols and often pray.
Taliban terrorists are usually very religious as well.

It's important that children learn to be good people, know ethics. Telling them that they can always wipe away some sins through confession will not teach them responsibility.
Teaching a child the difference between good and evil and the consequences that follows afterwards is one other way of best teaching a child how to grow. Giving them the power of choice while still very young and having them face the consequences squarely will in a very large sense curtail and make them understand certain ethics and morals of society.

Religion alone haven't really helped as expected thus this far due to how it has been infiltrated by deviant men in society.

Only you can train your child in the way they should go and when you do that they will be used to it and even if they go and see different things outside it won't give them interest to follow it because already they are used to the foundation they came from. Parents needs to be very serious when  it comes to children up bringing.

      Society nowadays doesn't seem like anything we grew up in, it's so complex and diverse that I can't help but wonder if this is where my kids are going to grow up and how do I manage.
       While growing up fraudulent activities, prostitution, and others were seen as heinous crimes whereas today it is seen as a norm. How do I send my children out to society even with a thorough upbringing and not be afraid not knowing what society will through at them? It frightens me. Can't help but wonder.

As Billy Joel would put it 'We didn't start the fire', and what that means is that the society now is not much diferent that it was in the 80s or 90s. Some things are diferent, sure, but fundamental things you mentioned were the same, we just tend to have romanticized viwes about the pest, the 'grass i always greener' paradox.

It is quite true that training a child is a task that requires a lot of experience as not everyone who has a child is fit to have a child.
There are so many areas in which to train a child and not to worry about how the child will fare in the society and in life. Few examples;

Good Upbringing
Things which are supposed to better a child are to be taught as they grow, right from their infant stage because it has been known that children catch things fast. A child who is raised with a good behavioral background is sure to live in a society that is filled with too many strange and abominable things.

Good character
 A child who has been instilled with a good character can survive in a situation he finds himself.

Rising our kids well is through the environment we fine ourselves and the environment live will show corrupt and how decent our children will look like, when children is not raise from God way or qualify educational background. If you want to train you child well the starting from the environment of education, because with education they will learn what is good. This digital world is not difficult to rise child.

The society has become else that the environment is a threat to every parents bringing up their children, even if the society is bad , parents can still try their best to groom their children in away that the environment won't have influence to the children.  Have seen people who were brought up in an indecent environment,  but because of the parents trained them they still didn't tune to the life style of the environment.  I think parents training still have a lot to do in their kids life no matter how bad the society is.
Definitely.

I 100% agree about parents training and how they raise children would still give the best impact for the kids as they grow. Even if the society is looking at bad shape but you're explaining things well and easy to your children, they can still manage to be the best out there.

There are too many distractions in raising a kid, not just for the kids but being a parent as well. But you don't let those distractions loose your focus.

Today's society is so corrupt to the extend one is very scared of raising his or her kid in this society because the environment one resides tends to have greater influence on the lives of children in that environment than adult.
The society has turned a place where crime is legalised,a place where blood is she'd unnecessarily.Training a child in the way he should go,and when he is old,he will not depart from it.Giving our children the best form of education that will definitely sharpen their insight and give them an edge over their colleagues.

Raising kids is primarily the duties of the whole community but not just the parents ,as parents getting close to them and making them your best friends and a listening ear and letting them feel safe around you is one important factor that needs to be considered,  instil Disciplines and strictness in as much as you make them feel safe around you,The society is full of corrupt mindsets and alot of negative things for them to learn from ,always have a proper discussion with your kids on sex education, healthy and healthy relationship dusscusion ,habits ,behaviour and attitudes towards the Everyone ,letting them know the wrongs from right, nurturing them to be better versions ,setting examples of past senerios and asking them to choose what the best advice will be for such senerios if they were in the shoes ,even good kids can be raised in the worst environment and society ,the parents has a larger role to play in their up bringings.

Our children is our future,our pride and our tomorrow,therefore every parent should be very watchful and careful of the things they expose their children to,the kind of friends they keep,the kind of things they do and the kind of places they go, to avoid had i known which always comes late.It is known that the way we train our children is how they will be when they are old,the kind of friends they keep will also determine the things they do in your absence.We should try to make our children our friends so that they can open up some secretes to us.Teach them how to live a good life,and at the end of their youthful age,they will certainly remember the ways their parents train them in.

According to the Holy Book (Bible), it says, "train up a child in the way he should go and when he's old he wouldn't depart from it".

 Society may today may actually not seem like anything you grew up in in your early childhood, but the reality is, even in those times of your childhood there's was a some heinous and immoral behavioral display and violence too but  you grew up as a better person based on the kind upbringing your home inbibed and breeded in you right from your infant to adolescent and that's why even growing up into an adult in this current day such morals and teaching haven't left you.

Even in the face of had decisions from peer groups our kind of upbringing plays a quintessential role of either disturbing out conscience or suppressing it based on decision taken.

So when a child is equip with the right morals, lessons and faith about societal issues and challenges then such a child is good to go better off to one without any.

So your fear should sufface when you lack in your duty to bringing up your child in the way you want him/her to go and not just you focusing your fears on what the world has out there in affecting your child.

I feel the problem isn't what's happening in today's society, the problem is that parents no longer have time for their children. No time to watch their daily activities, no form of discipline or punishment for wrong doings.  Children learn by observation not by what you tell them anymore. The best you can do is to train a child the way he should go and hope he or she would decide not to be so influenced.

This is actually a major problem that deserves an urgent emergency, because frankly speaking, the world is drastically driving to a dead end. It baffles me sometimes too, that is this the society my kids going to grow? A society that no longer have respect for elders, that prostitution is now seen as  the only way to make money by ladies, and kidnapping and yahoo Yahoo the only to make money by guys.
We really need God's deliverance, strick policy and someone who could talk some sense into the kids of this generation

Raising a child in today's world is not as it used to be.There was a time, parents could tell their children what to do, and they obediently do it.In today's world the reverse is the case.Some ways to raise kids are;
Setting limits and consistency with discipline.Active communication between parents and kids
Showing them that your love is unconditional

Bring the children up with prayer, learning the Ten Commandments from the Bible, and filled on the Gospels in the New Testament... and cut out as much of the bad stuff as possible... starting with TV.

You can't force your children to be wood. But you can entice them by teaching them righteousness, and doing what is right for them.

Cool

Just pray and guide them in the same you think it's okay for them.
Watch also who associates with both in and outside the house, friends at responsible at times for the bad behavior's if their fellow friends.

Changing society is not an easy thing, it is not within the ability of an ordinary person, but it is the work of the prophets who are sent by God and be with them. This is not easy at all. Indeed, all concepts of society have changed and we have to teach our children as much as possible to protect themselves from the mistakes that our current society is filled with. You have to teach them the values that you think are correct and And educate them on these morals from a young age, then push them into society, monitor them, and correct their mistakes. You cannot isolate your children from society because they are part of it, but you have to monitor and educate them constantly until they are able to distinguish the error themselves.
