Parents are the soul of their children’s lives. They are their children’s first loves and final guardians. They
are supposed to take care of their offspring, and understand them. But nowadays, parents don’t really
understand their child’s needs. I am talking about the children who are graduates and
undergraduates, a group who is mature enough to be able to select their life
partners. They know what is right and what is wrong for them, but their parents are following the old
school thought that first make your career and then think about marriage.
Young men and women think they know what is the best time to get married, but the parents may not agree. The truth is that in their times most of today’s parents were getting
married at the same age.
This clash between parents and children can sometimes lead to the children becoming offensive, turning rude and losing the ability to focus on any task properly. When contacted, one student said, βI am 23-years-old. I am interested in a girl and want to marry her,
she agrees too but the problem is that my parents want me to first settle
down and then they will think about that! I need at least four to five years to settle down
properly, how can I wait so long for my right!” He further said that he was fed up of the
situation, he was not talking with his parents, and his behaviour suddenly changes when he sees them. “Its a very hard time for me,” he commented.
Parents should understand the basic needs of their child. If they are changing their behaviour
suddenly, it means something is not right. Parents should understand that life is unpredictable. So, if something is going to happen, let it be and don’t hurt your own child’s
feel
