Dear beloved parents

Everything below, is just a word solely from what i think and it may not be right but it is just what i feel maybe sometimes your child may want it this way. Please dont get to hard on this because i want to just express it from what ive heard. Thank you.

Dear parents,

We know how much you love your child. We know how much you care. We know how much you worry. We know how much you dont want to see them disappointed by the choices they make.

However, you have to understand, sometimes you have to take a deep breath, listen to what they really want. It may not be the best choice compare to the one you have in list for them but let them go and try it. It is okay, to see them come back crying or stressed up. The worst answer would have been 'i told you so'. The answer that let them feel relieved and they have you behind their back will be 'it is okay. You learn from wrong. Stand up stronger and learn to improve'.

You can worry forever but worry cannot help your child to grow. It only will bound them to stay within the comfort zone you have set for them because they are being trained to be given comfort zone instead of learning how to face life the harsh way. From there, you will realize you child is really not bound to be in outside world because they are not tough enough but they were not even given the chance to do so from beginning.

You will always tell your child 'listen to us. We experience before and we know. We are right'. Everyone is different in their own way, i would say even parents and their child. You can never tell a person they are made the wrong choice even before trying because they will never know where their limit is and the will think 'whatever my parents cannot face, that is the same for me'.

Sometimes you feel your child is not telling you anything. Have you ever think of the reason why? They are afraid of you? They are afraid of your rejection? They just feel unsupported? Any answers could be the right one. Please dont be so hard on your child. No one can always be right. Just take some time to listen to them and give them a better suggestion or solution to what they are facing. Scolding now, only makes them feel more pressured in telling you anything. Every child wishes that their parents are like their best friends who will always be their best listener, best support system, best backbone to lean on, best place to not feel pressure in making choices in life.

I know this may seem like i am really mean telling all of this. Like i saif, i may be right and may be wrong because i am a child too. I am just penning down my opinion. I am not trying to offend anyone nor trying to put anyone in a hard position. I just wish things would be better.

Sincerely,
Another child who wish for this.
