Destination Designed!!
After Going through the article written by Amratya sen which was published at the ndtv site. I was reminded of my own post which was written 2 years back which i would like to re-post in order to share my insight on this topic.
“We have been brought up the way our Parents and Teachers wanted to bring us up. if the priority in Youngster`s lives today is Luxury, and indifference towards others, it is because their parents care for none and wish to live in luxury. if students today are languishing in coaching classes slogging away for marks, it is because their parents and teachers want them to become scoring machine.
if every student you meet believes that he should be a Doctor or an Engineer and earn lots of Money, it is because his Parents Teachers and Relatives have conditioned him to think like that.
They just end up doing what their parents want ,with out giving enough time to bring out their talents which they find hidden inside. before they could say , some thing about their dreams , they are asked to do this/that. after passing out from the college, they realize what they have done to their God gifted Talents (extra activities including ,writing,sports). Parents need to give their Children enough space and Hinder, so that he/she could think of her own and achieve those Dreams which we often look back after moving the stage, ones we wanted to be. your sons and daughters are going to make it big one day. once they go that stage, they will not come back to the age of a child.so let them enjoy for being what they are…….
