Many times I have been called by some of my relatives that I am irresponsible towards them where as I enjoy, watching them from a distance, exploring their world. Great metaphor for half born child.

Call it excessive love, concern for the kids' well-being and growth mixed with the fear of an unknowable tomorrow, a parent prefers to guide and keep a watchful eye on the children irrespective of the latter's phase of life. Yeah, it probably has its roots in the parent's own perception of unfulfilled aspirations and failures. The problem is we as parents are well aware of the need to let the kid go, but just do not bring ourselves to do that, thereby unwittingly stunting the child's growth potential. No easy answers to this dilemma!<br /><br /><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16368606564988507252noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2390894340532763478.post-87738660014059074422016-10-25T06:59:47.957+05:302016-10-25T06:59:47.957+05:30Excellent post.

I guess this is a generation which is so obsessed with trying to provide all those things that they missed out (as children) , that they become in the process overbearing. <br /><br /><br />Moulihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15621050503068935432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2390894340532763478.post-75233915165030848872016-10-24T15:34:07.532+05:302016-10-24T15:34:07.532+05:30“Good parents give their children Roots and Wings....“Good parents give their children Roots and Wings. Roots to know where home is, Wings to fly away and exercise what’s been taught them.” <br />~Jonas Salk<br /><br />Jonas Salk says it right. But here is my academic take, with no grounding in experience, but only through observation. <br />You know when you are a good parent when you know that you trust your children to make their own way. But to reach this level of trust in your children, you have to be confident about yourself and your own values. Self-doubt is what holds back parents in trusting and freeing their children.

Very pertinent post ...
Totally agree tha...Harish, <br />Very pertinent post ...<br />Totally agree that women (and men ) can take their parenting / nurturing role a tad too seriously !<br /><br />Much at the cost of their own nurturing and growth drawing too deep from their well of resources ... it is very important to replenish their wells too ....I think <br /><br />When they pause to do that, they can find renewed energy to being a parent !<br /><br />Parenting the self is also an important part of parenting , I think :) Vidyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08423885998109490167noreply@blogger.com
