From the very young age we start scolding children for their little mistakes.
We dictate them right and wrong straightway,
We impose our ways on them.
We don't have time to answer their questions,teach them,change them with love.
We don't tell them the reason "why".We don't spend time with them listening to their hearts and fill them with love.
Infact mistakes and their correction need love not scolding and for sure not beatings.
We can teach them the right ways by doing things ourselves,setting an example and inspiring them to do the right.
In our anger, hurries, worries and desires.In our own quarrels and frustrations from life,we crush their childhood and our own and their healthy growth.
We don't tell them motivational stories ,spend time with them in order to make them powerful.
We don't pay attention to how they are growing inside.We simply give them food, clothing,shelter, Education but we don't talk to them to empower them and clear their minds of false feelings of fear, insecurities,comparisons, inferiorities,lack of self confidence.
We don't celebrate their small little happinesses and victories of life.
We become their judge if they share their secrets and weaknesses with us and start seeing them with disgust,a smaller and a shameful vision.
We don't appreciate their courage and honesty that they shared their true feelings with us so that we can now guide them.
Instead of appreciating their qualities,we often compare them with their friends and siblings and always criticise them for what they can't do making them feel low in their self esteem.
We often victimize them when we see them doing things which is often termed as morally incorrect which their friends or others around may be doing say parting,going for movies,making friends in opposite gender.
Parents have a very big responsibility for their child and thus need to grow in their mindsets in sustaining their child as it is this time when their personality is being shaped for the lifetime.
