No parent is a bad parent. Every parent is working hard for their child. They want their child to study a lot, do good, be a good human being, earn a lot, have good manners, and do so many things. They just want everything from their child and it’s not wrong. We all have been through that pressure, and we put the next generation through that pressure. As a parent also we go through that pressure to make a better individual out of our children. However, we fail every day and someday we feel we have done a good job. I get so many calls from parents who have been feeling guilty and I feel that way too so many times that we did not behave in the right way with our child. But there is no right way.
So one mother called up, she was very stressed out. This Covid situation has brought out worst and best of us. She had been working, she had been trying with her children classes, and she had been keeping up with the pressure of family. I think we all have been under some or other kind of pressure. So when her children were not behaving as per her expectation, she would retort to some kind of physical punishment. This was making her child further aggressive. She wondered what to do?
It’s simple. The child would give back what he/she is receiving. If you want your child to be kind, be kind to your child. Do not look at him as your project or a mission. Look at him as an individual. Be kind. talk with kindness, sit with kindness with your child. If you are aggressive, your child would reflect back the same. Its not only about how you are to the world. It’s mainly about, how you are towards your child.
Be kind, be genuine, be loving and you will raise a fine human being.
