Orthodoxy vs Generation Gap

I belong to a joint family, where I enjoy every relation that is possible on earth in my age, I feel very proud to be a part of it.


But Generally speaking Its true that every family has its own principles and disciplines but sometimes it peeves me that it lacks freedom and independence.I think it should be there but it should be harmless...that should not depress the child nor the child should think that its extrovert and talents are being taken for granted and are being ignored. Parents may say that the child is given every facility to study they have left no stones unturned ....but.......the child starts feeling scattered from inside. An insecure feeling starts to grow unknowingly...............

But at the same time parents are also helpless because they can not be unsocial and selfish for their child's freedom and so called independence. They are bound to keep their children in strict regulations for the sake that no one should point finger towards their children.....

They assure themselves and their children that knowledge gives power, power gives prestige and prestige gives secured feeling which further leads to "freedom "then u will be smart overnight. And that day will be the d-day when u can prove yourself

but why they can not understand everything and every wish of the child should not be postponed because "everything has its right time to be done" if also parents are tried to be persuaded by saying the above line they may suggest you to study and study and study during your teenage. What the things the child misses that he only knows. What should he/she do also??!!!if parents decide something then the child has to obey he must obey and he should also because as parents have duty towards their children in the same way children has also a responsibility toward the parents if nothing then at least keeping his parent's words...........

what a tragedy!!!!!! the child is simply so helpless searching for a new ray of hope

time n tide waits for no man. By the time he/she is able to find a reason to crack the shell and come out the time flies away and the man discovers that he has not got the new ray of hope rather he is just doing what he should do in that age. People again take him for granted. What a pity :(

the child spends the whole life in finding a personal space and independence because everywhere the child goes there is only unending path unexpected responsibilities and many more new things are introduced just one thing is missing

''freedom''






if i have hurt anyone's feelings then i am extremely sorry

have a good day:)

but there are families who give independence to there siblings
but the siblings should also maintain the respect and dignity of the independence given. its actually mutual thought but also the environment where the kid grow like peer also depends.
