She is 45 and her son is 25. She is the CEO of an MNC. When her son was born, she was busy building her career. She sent him away to the hostel and he did not want to go away. He kept asking to come back and every time he was given more gifts. When he grew up and came back, he did not want to be with them. All he wants now is more and more things. If she tries to come near him, he asks her to leave.
She has two children and all the time they watch TV. They dream of video games, they dream of cartoons and they dream of machines. They are becoming violent with each other. She wondered what did she do! She had many priorities like going to the gym and many other things. After all, health is also important. And yes, whenever she wanted she gave herself a break but she did not spend time with kids as it was always a task for her. She asked, how could she make them study more and the answer was by studying with them.
All the kids love toys, clothes, TV, Candies, Birthday parties and everything else. But they want them to do with their parents. With their mothers. They are happy if they are doing everything with their parents. However, sometimes, parents think that they can be away from kids by giving them their favorite things. That can never be true! However, they learn to manage without parents and that’s how they get detached from parents. It is like if you really want something and you do not get that, you convince yourself, you do not need that. And eventually, that becomes the reality.
Spend time with kids. Play with them, eat with them, study with them. They will be more intelligent, valued, good human beings and loving. They need all the things but they need these things with you.
