Sad
by Kaushik Das on Jun 25, 2007 03:04 PM   Permalink

Sad that in this nation which gave most of the world its knowledge, parents cannot explain things to their children in the right spirit.
.
Lack of proper communication (other than orders, admonitions and punishments, including violent punishments) leads to the child not having anyone to turn to. Being lonely, he becomes independent too fast and stops caring about the world. The child may also turn criminal because the only language he has learnt is that of force and violence.
.
The cases are not isolated. This should have been tackled many decades ago but it was lost in the sand of myriads of other issues deemed more important.
.
Most parents bring a child to life but forget to give a life to the child. Basically, these parents do not care about their children. They become parents out of their own ego of becoming a parent. They don't even understand what childhood means. Basically, they are children who have parented children.
