Ccincy: Why?


wave Did you read it? It just comes across as parent bashing,
and give me, give me, with no explanation or example.

Sunny143: It is just one example,I bet there are millions of children who are suffering in silence,or may be have not or will never realize that they are suffering.I really dislike the parents who never even try to understand their own mistakes and always complain about their children.Bad parenting could affect the child psychologically and there by may become a threat to the society.Especially if parents fail to maintain peace and harmony(mostly lost because of selfish desires)at home.It will surely effect the children's life in some way or the other.




My sis-in-laws children didn't become a threat to society but they did encounter some problems later on in their adulthood and became selfish parents themselves.They kept the cycle going.Sad really.

Sunny... take heart..

Your country is holding tight to its traditions.. but slowly, ever so slowly... your education prospects have soared ... especially in the last couple of decades...

and when education takes precedence then you will find that things will change...

It's clearly up to your generation to find a happy balance.. and patience with all your customs..

It will be better.. but perhaps not right now..

But ... don't forget.. the grass on the other side of the fence... is Not always greener... for as much as you might think it is... wave
