The plight of parents killing themselves with the business of hoarding material for their children shakes me a lot. Why all this mad run, obviously to give them a better material life in future in orders to secure their future. Sure! We all owe a few things to our kids; happiness of their presence is one such element to dwell on. The elements of life that hatched y progress was monetary I do not want my kid to suffer so I work day in and day out to help him stand on his own feet.
One day a desperate mother knocked at my door for solace. It was her teenage kid who was the cause of her panic. The child is taking a fancy to the outside world. Partying late night and relishing the taste of intoxicants thus staying away from the path of education leading to bad grades was her complain. I was to become her guardian to help her guide her child.
Infancy is the stage of teenagers.They take infancy to all things that are superfluous. Who would want to study if he knew there were lots of duchels at the bank awaiting his future? Who thinks of the far off ruins that life may throw at a tender stage of life? Why blame the child?
We are the teachers and guardians and have brought innocent beings to this world. We are responsible for any ill treatment the child faces, we are their saviors, we are responsible for their survival and in some cases the educated mothers add we are responsible for their better grades. Then how are we not responsible for their downfall or the negative attitude they develop in their teenage.
What parents must see to is that do they know themselves to claim so many things for their resultant outputs .A sum in mathematics needs to be solved first to be made applicable to different modes of solution making called mathematical applicability, derivations of formulas etc.
How much do the parents know themselves that they expect a child to stay as they will?
To my mind children should be told that this is a circle in the world that each parent produces off springs and then nurtures them with care. This completes a cycle of life and as the texts say helps him to get relieved from this world in an orderly manner. To educate and take care of the offspring is the parents’ duty. After all human beings have been blessed with compassion, but to supply for their life long requirements is not a parent’s job. You must feel blessed that we have brought you to this world to enjoy its beauty else as the religious books say soul shall take the body form and may be if we had not conceived you then a hen or a pig and well life would be definitely shit!!
So dear kids if you need to survive in this world then use your time and energy to its maximum during the teenage else struggles will be innumerable.
GOD BLESSES.
