Parents have faults too. Do not expect them to be perfect. Accept them the way they are.

Our parents do maximum for us. No body would do more than that for us. Still maximum number of people have complaints against own parents. Some childhood issues, some grudges and some low moments. We have it all. Sometimes, they are busy in own lives, sometimes, they have own issues to deal with, sometimes, even they do not know what else could be done. They also fall, they also cry, they also break, they also break down but we fail to see. For kids or children, parents have everything they ask for. For children parents are magical being who can wave a band and every wish will come true.

But sorry! Being a parent myself and growing up with some complaints against my own parents which I solved later in life by talking to them and sharing with them, I know what all it takes to raise a child. First of all a mothers body is never same. Then all nights of waking up, constant struggle to raise a good individual, constant struggle of leaving behind own life and creating a new one and still finding all the happiness, no sleep time, not allowed even to get stressed or frustrated or even raise voice, still need to smile so that the child can smile and to be on a 24 hours run, it take all and much more than that.

We can do mistakes, we are not perfect, we get stressed and we get tired too, we also have moments when we do not want to buy more things or we feel we cannot spend more than that or we cannot fulfil all the wishes, where own life has taken a back seat (So many times I laugh at the thing when I make a priority list and my husband says he is at the lower end of my priority list after kids, that I am not even there in the list, which I accept happily).

So give a little credit to your parents for doing it all with their heart, blood and soul instead of complaining about what they could not do or the mistakes they have done as they did not know better, accept them with their flaws. You do not have to treat them like God, they are not God, just accept them and love them as they are. A normal human being who has done a lot for you!

After acceptance, you will be able to love them truly and respect them! They deserve that!

Love you Maa, love you Pa!
