Venerable members of the Sangha,
Venerable fellows,
Valued Upasaka, Upasika,
Maybe one or many of you like to give, out of generosity or compassion, into this question, or discuss it:
at's the benefit for parents (and family, related) if letting children go forth, become monks?
In traditional countries, to give high beloved like ones children into the Sasana, dedicate them for the Tripple Gems, is said to be of high merits for the parents and family?
How can the benefit be understood, explained, in regard of the Dhamma-Vinaya?
Quoted by Upasaka @Sirinath, on other place:
In addition:
Supposed a society, family..., group, is not at all delighted to give (up) their children for the Sasana, does not approve the going forth as praisworthy, could such a society, nation, be ever related?
Much merits and joy, release and highest fruits by giving into.

Quoted by Upasaka @Sirinath, on other place:
At a festival for the dedication of the Great Pataliputra monastery called the Aśokārāma as well as the other viharas built by Ashoka, Moggaliputta-Tissa, in answer to a question, informed Ashoka that one becomes a kinsman of the Buddha's religion only by letting one's son or daughter enter the Sangha. Upon this suggestion, Ashoka had both his son Mahinda and daughter Sanghamitta ordained (Mhv.v.191ff.).
