Children are treasure and special beings to the society as
They represent continuity. The tendency that a family will continue to exist lies in the fact that children are being reproduced, that's the reason why most people grieve. When they discover that the ability to reproduce their offspring is under attack.
Just to celebrate the lives of this little ones.
The joy people get from that act can be so unimaginable the moment you know there is continuity in your lineage you tend to be even more bold and seem not to be scared of anything, not even death.
They represent growth, their presence gives an assurance of increasing in number which shows how well the family is doing.
Back in the ancient days mostly in Africa the wealth of a family can be determined by the number of children a man has and that's why we all grew up discovering our grandfathers got married to 4 - 5 wives all these just in the name of giving birth to so many children, the presence of children in the house gives the comfortability of ever increasing wealth.

They represent love, the presence of children shows that love once existed in the life of two people who agreed to come together and the end result of that love is the appearance of children.
This is one of my little cousins who will ask you yo drop him off at school that is directly opposite their house.
After school closing he will stand at the gate of the school patiently waiting for someone to come and pick him off when he can just simply walk into the house. Sadiq that's his name.
I have been a lover of children all my life. Since that day I discovered that being with children gives an internal joy that knows no bounds. Stay with them and be rest assured that joy will always be around you. They don't think of harming someone. All they ever care for is their happiness and once they find it anywhere they make that place their place of residence.
MUNACHI that's her name.
EMEKA will always call me big man since he doesn't know my name.
Jemima she is always at my neck, she plays alot.
Then BLESSING this is the big girl amongst them she doesn't play but she loves being around us anytime we are gathered.
The above pictures respectively are pictures of children whom I met in a new place I travelled too. Their parents were not even comfortable with me as they see me as stranger but then children will always be children they never cared all they were after was their happiness.
Have you not travel with your own child to a strange land where you as a parent even felt uncomfortable but you will be surprised at how that child will revolt and refuse to want to go back home simply because he found happiness in that same land and you will be surprised at how hard that child will cry and struggle not to go back deep down inside of you begin to imagine with the question of “What's even special that is making this child resist me?”
Benerd and Blseeing two children who will always jump on me regardless of their state of neatness as in regards to mine they literally don't care they will stain me even if I am on white, I knew how I have to wash this cloth after our encounter that day.
