When I say that I don’t mean that you’re disobedient to them, or they’re bad.
Anyone go through that? When parents have a picture of your future already laid out for you, and they expect so many things from you?
I don’t think thats right to do. People shouldn’t have kids to raise them for their own desires. The offspring should make the parents happy…but from his/her own self.
They shouldn’t expect or “guide” you on any path. You have to be loyal to them no doubt.
But do you think its fair when they force you into so many things you don’t deem necessary (unless its islam). ?
I've never had that problem....what exactly is it that they're forcing you into?
my parents have never forced me into anything....they're always been supportive and without their help I wouldnt be where I am today. I love them to bits :)
when it comes to marriage...ive had many proposals but rejected them all. parents have never made me feel bad about it or anything.....even now some people are proposing but parents havent forced me into anything. its my choice.
on that point....its soo annoying when once you've said NO to a proposal and them same people keep asking again and again. I cant wait to get married.....at least no1 will propose after that
we should always try to keep our parents happy and not do or say anything that may hurt them. imagine if u behaved badly with them and you lose them and dont even get a chance to say sorry.
i hate it when my mom says that Gunnah milega [she just pulled that]. i try and explain to her that i’m not trying to disrespect her decision, but nothing:naraz:
In majority of cases, when parents and kids dont get on.....Ive noticed its usually the kids fault....even though at that age the kids think they're right and everyone else is wrong.
Impulse: You're lucky to have such understanding parents. But its hard to have parents who have been so conditioned by cultural and societal influences that its tough to crack their ideologies.
Ofcourse you should always obey them. But at the same time parents should learn how children should be respected to make their own decisions.
Parents can Only Guide, not Force and pressure.
Insan: Expection should be there, but it shouldn't be forced. Especially when their ideologies and motives are not correct in accordance to Islam, or your favour.
My parents says “Jab tak humari pas ho, humari suno aur mano”
but Thanks Allah they have never forced me for anything and Alhmadullah they always trys to do the best for me
Well my parents are really tolerant of what we (my siblings and I) want to do in the future (be it getting married or a career choice). But I think, in general, parents are usually more stressful on the guys. They're the ones that are responsible for providing money and support for their families and stuff.
things have always been chosen for me, even now, i am finishing my degree, i am told ur not working, y dont u do teacher training as a time pass, but i am not allowed to work so y the extra qualification.
