“If you are not able score more than 90% then you will not be given food”; “You have to run faster to get the first prize”'; “Look at your friend, she is so talented and brilliant, stands first, participates in all co-curricular activities, and you a useless fellow.” are some of the aphorisms that are posed before the generation of today. Do todays parents want their kids to be Albert Einsteins, Galileos or Newtons... just as quickly as possible?. People who have contributed in all the educational and creative fields were, in their childhood, normal kids with average IQs. It was out of their sheer dedication, voluntary efforts and sincierity that they left their marks in this world.
Parents have become too competitive!! . May be this is one of the main reasons why we get to hear suicide incidents just after or before the 10th and 12th class examination results. The fear of not being able to achieve their parents expectations provoke them to take appalling decisions.
Children should be given the liberty to study and choose the subjects or fields which interest them the most. In no ways should they be imposed with our dreams and hopes. Being their parents it is our duty and responsibility to provide them with the best, to stand like a strong pillar when they need our support. But when it comes to fulfilling their dreams let them do it. Fuel their passions by guiding them through the ways of life.
Let the flower bloom in its own way. Lets not expect a bud to bloom into a flower in just one day. We are not Gods but his children and are destined to help his little angels.
