Hmm…I feel totally wierd posting this topic but I gotta find you guys’s opinions on this.
I have seen a lot of desi parents get frustrated with their children and get annoyed at them at the littlest things. When they are young, the parents take extra care of them and waht not. Once the kids are older and younger siblings arrive on the scene, I have noticed, parents give lesser attention to the older ones. They dont seem that interested in their school work any more or listen to their school stories etc etc. Is this normal?Have you guys noticed this or is it just me? Can parents ever get bored with their kids?
its not just desi parents..all parents do this, the thing that gets me is that most parents don't realise that they're being like this...its like wake up love..ur eldest is going thru depression and the middle one has typical middle child syndrome!! but im not a parent yet..so this is just an observation
Try being a parent first, then diss 'em, kay luv
Ira yaar…
human beings r not perfect… and parents bhee toh aakhir insan hi hotay haen… un se bhee kabhee ghaltyaan ho sakti haen…lekin bas as Muslims hamara ye farz hae k parents kee har haal mein respect karein… ofcourse sometimes we r also not the best of children.. coz after all we r also imperfect human beings :S
lekin i dont think parents ever get bored of their children

Yes Mohabbat, since we arent parents yet so its perhaps easier said than done when it comes to dishing advice on parenting.
Legally Brown: I am not dissing any parents, I am sorry if my post came out to be that way. It was a mere observation. Your further comments on the post will be appreciated.
irem: oye yar, when did i say what parents do isnt always right etc etc. But dotn you agree people make mistakes and our parents our humans too? I am not talking about myself or my parents. This is an observation of some others and the kids i mentioned are little babies, preschool/elementary school age that i see being mistreated (in my opinion). Ofcourse I prolly shouldnt say all this since who knows how I am gonna treat my own kids
But thanks for the reply.
I think people are misinterpreting my post. In no way is this a whining on my part, I am merely stating an observation and wondering if this is only me.
I haven't noticed that. Yes, the elder ones are expected to take on more responsibility and perhaps be more independent, but I haven't noticed a lack of attention.
