Coming back to this post, I didn’t give much context for anyone to come up with a a good reply. The reason why I am asking this question is that many paki kids have insecure parents, who hide their insecurities in the name of religion/culture. This really create a toxic environment for the children since insecure parents get threatened easily and would victimize their children (basically, make their child feel bad so they know they are wrong and their parents are right). To make matters worse, the child feels trapped since he cant speak up or else he feels threatened by his/her parents and he basically grows up with this anxiety.

It is really important to raise socially well adjusted and happy kids. I see many social misfits who have a hard time finding employment, making friends etc. Many go thru a culture shock and fear their children will have gfs, bfs and will drink etc and get super uptight and ruin the best and most crucial part of the childhood and the individual never learns to laugh and be happy. Conditioning is a super strong phenomenon and most cant rise above their conditioning.
