Parenting is the greatest blessing in the whole world. As child enters our life, our perspective of seeing things changes and we become a better person. As a parent, everyone wants to be the
perfect guardian of their child. They want to give each and everything which
their child wants from them and why not, they want their child to be the
happiest one in the whole world. But does it really work in the long run? No.
There are parents who bring their children in the garden but they don’t let
them play because, they don’t want them to be injured while playing. In this
case, we could clearly see that they are being extremely over-protective. Any
sensible mind could shatter while thinking about these children’s future.
You must be thinking that what’s wrong in protecting our
child? There is nothing wrong if you are protecting them for the right reason.
If you are protecting your child from the little things like injuries while
playing, fights with friends then you are keeping them away from the real life
experiences. No one is telling you to put them into troublesome situations to
have experiences but at least let them decide what and how it feels when they
fall, when they fail and when they succeed. It’s not always about their safety,
sometimes it’s about their experiences, their views, their perspectives about
things. These little things help to develop their personality.
There is this fact, which every parent should keep in mind
that some or the other day, your child is going to be an independent individual
and he or she has to face the real world. If you keep them away from these
experiences, it will harm them in future. Just imagine, when they will face
something in the future like failure or heartbreak, they wouldn’t be able to
understand how to react or how to handle themselves, just because they would be
totally dependent on you. Because you were the one in every situation who guided
them and they didn’t have to do anything for that. So, please don’t make them
face this in the future. Don’t be their weakness! Be their strength! Make them
ready for the real world.
