Like you know as a kid…well even me at this stage…sometimes my parents say stuff to me…or restrain me from doing stuff… and I be there thinking ‘I’m never gonna be like this with my kids’…
I’m sure everyone has felt like that at some point of their childhood…or teenage years.. :halo:
Anyway…so how many of you parents have actually stuck to what you thought then 
Or do many of you see yourselves treating your children just as you were treated by your parents? 
Just a random thought :halo:
Re: I was just thinking…
hmmm…
there have been times when I always had that feeling that I am not going to be like my parents…
Then, there has been times recently, where I admired them being my parents and wanted to reciprocate what they have done…
There are fundamental differences of few things on the perspective I take on things vs what they think sometimes but I am always eager to find why they think what they think. Many times, I had to change my opinion on things because I found their perspective much logical than how I looked at the things… It does not mean I always agree with their take on things though…

Re: I was just thinking…
Well…one thing I have learnt is that MOST of the time..parents do have a reason for what they may tell you to do, or what they stop you from doing.
I guess at the time it can be really annoying as a child… but a lot of people say that when they have grown up and had kids of their own, they realise how hard it is to bring their children up in a way which would benefit them in the long run and hopefully make them become good individuals.
I guess its a really hard job bringing up children. And for those parents who manage to see their children become good, honst, successful people, it must be a real great accomplishment.
Just random musings :halo:
Re: I was just thinking…
That’s what I was saying…
Sometimes, as kids we do not realize what is good or bad for us… They do it for our own good… but sometimes, it is also a fact that they misread their children as well… It’s a very known issue with desi parents that at times, when their kids need attention, love, and moments of togetherness - parents unconciously ignore them as well..

Re: I was just thinking…
Yeah I know… like personally my parents - well my mum was born and brought up in the UK, but still her views on some things are so traditional 
And it causes so many problems…
I think I do my part now though… like I try and explain everything clearly to my parents, and my reasoning behind why I want to do it.. I think they are beginning to give me a LITTLE more freedom now Alhamdulillah :halo:
I think the most important thing is trust, just don’t abuse their trust 
And yeah I totally agree with desi parents misreading their kids - well a lot of them.
My own parents sometimes seem so wrapped up with the extended family and all this other stuff, and they don’t even seem to realise if like say me or one of my sisters are upset about something, or need their support :halo:
I just tend to to keep quiet about stuff, and then sometimes tell them when its over
Sorry, this thread is turning into a Life1 thread :halo:
