It was said yesterday that it takes endurance to nurture, as the commitment of parenting can be best described as nurturing. It was also emphasized that if Jochebed had not engaged enough endurance, she would have gracefully handed over her son to the destiny hunters of his time.
Not only that, Jochebed (the mother of Biblical Moses) lived a life of separation to emerge as a referenced mother. I am sure if she were friends with many women in her community; she would have been discouraged by their opinions and would have followed their path against the will of God for her life. But she chose the lonely path of separation, which required great endurance to survive, and her relevance was preserved.
Likewise, you might need to carefully choose your company or association for you to emerge as the well-referenced parent that you are described to be.
