The question of raising children in his works of St. John Chrysostom pays considerable attention, this topic repeatedly permeates his socially oriented teachings. The saint considers the work of raising children to be truly important and not deprived of the reward of God: "Listen to this, fathers and mothers: the upbringing of children will not be without reward for you" (Commentary on the First Epistle to Timothy, chapter 9).
