A Child Without A User Manual

We don’t get a user manual on how to live our lives, I mean for example what are the things we should do to take care of ourselves, how to maintain relationships, how to stay happy, motivated and HOW to enjoy life. Also, how cool would it be if every baby who comes out of their mother’s womb to have a manual of their own, come on, that would have been a genius move.  But instead, we experiment on the baby with the things our parents tried on us, then maybe rectify few and modify it to our convenience, then if luck has it we will be able to survive the whole process with as little guilt about the ways in which we brought up a man/woman into this world in the end.

Yesterday I spoke to one of my Blog friend and she was telling me how after a hectic day at home she reads my blog to relax and her worries about her child who doesn’t eat food and doesn’t talks to anybody in school. The reality is we as humans don’t know how to raise a child when he/she shows characteristics outside of a standard norm. And the saddest part is there is nobody to blame.

Everyone has an opinion about somebody else’s child except for the child. Even if he/she mugs up some courage and tries to speak up to their parents, they get shot down because that is not something the society’s standard norm is. He has to be an engineer because that’s what Sheela’s kid is going to be. You want to be a painter? That you can do during your free time. It’s a hobby, not a profession. See, the mother in question was clearly brought up by two parents who had told her the same thing when she wanted to be a dancer. But since her parents pushed her to be a doctor, she unfortunately suffered and worked hard to be a doctor by never enjoying those precious younger days of her life. But the problem here is the mother forgot in this process that success can never be equivalent to being happy. She assumes her parents were right about forcing her to be a doctor since she has become successful at it and is living a luxurious life. Is she happy? Nah, that doesn’t matter, what matters now is she do the same thing to her son who is now stupidly wanting to be a painter. It’s her job now to push him into being an engineer.

It works almost in the similar way that the tadalafil online does. cialis increases the blood circulation in the organs of the body, including the male reproductive organ. order generic viagra amerikabulteni.com An overdose of nitrates in body can lead to issues with erection or climax. Usually, these online platforms offer the drug at the discounted prices that may go to offer more advantages to the ED buy cialis in australia amerikabulteni.com sufferers. See, you cannot blame the mother either. So whom can we blame? Can we blame the society? Should we blame people like Sheela whose kid actually want to be an engineer.? Can we then blame the kids for wanting to do something they love? Can we blame the parents? Their parents? Their great grandparents?

I don’t know the answers to any of the above questions and I’m not a mother yet to give lectures about how to raise a kid and that will be utterly stupid and ridiculous of me to preach to those mothers. But one thing I’ll say like how I told my friend yesterday, communicate with your child and try to be his friend. He may then open up about what he wants to do and if it’s something you cannot accept because the society says so, please try to remember the 10-year-old you were once.

Have a good day/night everyone 🙂

I’m an ordinarily odd person who is pleasant to talk to. When I’m not trying to be funny, I would be lying on the floor bawling my eyes out. I write weird stories, real life snippets, traumatic and dramatic memories along with doses of unsolicited advices. 🙂
