Our Child

By Sandeep Datta

Let’s spare a few moments for that kid who often becomes the central figure for exhailing our frustrations on. This poor child is just about to begin his first venture of life.

 He has dreams of his own. That is what inspires him to try himself for the very first time. His maiden voyage is going to be his first introduction with all the even and odds of a pragmatic life. Let him travel it.

While doing that , we have to put a curb on our intrusive behaviour while allowing him to try something distinctive. Ignoring that,We might spoil his joy of playing the game in his own style.

There is a possibility that we might have not been so romantic about cherishing our struggling days but let him have this romance with hard times. It’s his turn to feel that aroma.

He is trying to make a move to reach somewhere where we would have not even thought of reaching ,ever. May be his society requires that qualification of having traveled something really tough and with a different style. We have to accept this.We have to avoid doubting his method of approaching his destination.He can make it.

Probably, we think our idiot looking kid can never do anything worthwhile without following our guidelines.But, if we really want him to grow up then we will have to let him go on his own approach. 

He can. We have to believe it..

We have to  give him a few chances to let his dreams breath properly. Our trust in his convictions will certainly strengthen his Will power. We should allow him to go on his own, without disturbing him by imposing our outdated guidelines on his creative wits.Let him grow naturally.The life is the real tutor.

Our stress forming intrusive advises disrupt his pace of going further.Our perception regarding child’s success on the basis of just a few marks have no meaning to this computerized world. It grades each individual for his performance but not for his misleading scores of petty exams. 

The time has changed completely and our opinion about a successful child needs transformation. We don’t have to  feel challenged but it ‘s a time to let the new thoughts prosper in our family. This liberty will add to our  modernity in social circles.At least this freshness can come only  through fresh people in our family .Let’s welcome it .

No one can anticipate what our child of infinite intelligence been blessed by the almighty God. After all ,all ideas possess some meaning and purpose.If he shows some eagerness in trying his innocent ideas at a  platform which seems strange to us even then, give him some space to decorate them. 

He needs some time to make his movements take a fine shape.Just the way we need some time to develop our outlook.

 We have to put a pause to our attitude of comparing him to the other children’s brilliance.It’s completely discouraging and  create a demoralizing impact on oneself. Would we justify our own comparison with any legend, done by our own parents when we were claming to be Mr. Right?

Wasn’t that too much for us at that time? Sounds disturbing!  Yes, it happens with everyone and obviously , happening with our child too at present.So,showing our wisdom and maturity, we have to stop this habit.

   May be we are not aware to being a turning point for a child but at the least we can stop ourselves from becoming  an obstruction into our  child’s expedition.

He doesn’t need much from us but just a little affection and acceptance. If we won’t accept him with his all failures or little seeming success at the end of the day then who will? It’s only at this point that he longs for his  own people.

We have to prove our real love by standing on his side when somebody takes cracks on him for his dull shade of personality. He is our own blood. We  just have to believe in him.

He will make it to the top a little sooner or later . He will surely prosper, if not today then some time after.
All we have to do is Just To Keep the Faith!
