It's so tough being a parent, and more so with the kind of education system we have at hand in our country, the worst part is knowing that there is so very little awareness and knowledge towards changing this system.
We don’t have Candlelit marches on this issue; no parents don’t have the time for it or even actually addressing this issue at some level or atsome forum. We don’t know where to go?
We are working too hard to put our children through institutions where we pay good money yet we are not involved in it so as to enhance, improve or even to lower the amount of pressure we are putting on our children and also on ourselves to make them what????
That’s another thing we are not sure about. Yes we do say we want them to be good humans but then do you know a lot many good humans around you, I don’t see them, and I am definitely not happy about the icons and the role models that we have in the present times. They are not good; just very successful. So then truly all we want is that our children should succeed in all their endeavors and become rich robots of this century.
The truth is we are not happy even when that happens in the long run, we become old and lonely, we drift away from friends and sometimes from family too, that’s when we realize just being successful and rich robots was not enough. But by then it’s too late to change or make a change.
SO Why not now? Yes we are under pressure but you see things seem to be going downhill from here; at least for people like us. So why not we take this opportunity to change some little things in our lives and more importantly in the lives of our children.
This is a call to all the moms and dads who are suffering from lower back pains due to our education system. Lets make a difference at least let us take a single step forward in that direction. I would be very eager to find out if parents in our country would join hands to do something about it.
