Years back, poor illiterate parents produced
Doctors,
Engineers,
Scientists,
Accountants,
Lawyers,
Architects,
business people, whom I will refer to as Group โAโ.
These Group โAโ Children struggled on their own after Primary to become notable personalities. Most of them
trekked to school barefooted
went to farms
fetched water and firewood
cared for domesticated animals
did some work including trading after school to survive.
Now Group โAโ, who have now become Parents themselves are producing Group โBโ Children
These group B children are
pampered
helped in their homework or home assignments from nursery school through secondary schools to higher institutions.
chauffeur driven to very expensive schools or are sent abroad to study.
they can watch movies from morning till dawn after school.
they are treated like baby kings and queens.
they donโt do any household chores.
Food is put on the table for them,
their plates are removed and washed by parents or housemaids.
They are given expensive cars and clothes,
not forgetting big pocket money to be wasted !!!.
Their parents help them in doing their assignments.
๏ฟฝ In spite of all these, only few can speak or write correctly.
๏ฟฝGroup โAโ Parents cared for their own parents and children, Group โBโ, their children are still struggling to find their feet at age 30+.
๏ฟฝThey find it difficult to do things on their own because they are used to being helped to think and doing things by Group โAโ. So they canโt help themselves, their parents or society. THEY ABANDON THEIR PARENTS IN THEIR BID TO ACQUIRE THE WORLD
Where do you belong
Reduce the pampering and the unnecessary help you offer your children.
Let your children grow in wisdom, intelligence and strength.
Let them face the truth and the realities of life. Teach them to grow to become independent adults. Teach them to
think critically
respect others and
develop confidence in themselves.
๏ฟฝParents, discipline your children to become disciplined adults, useful and not useless.
Share with all your fellow parents & let us try to make a difference.
