Parenting? You maybe committing this mistake.

-
Hello everyone and hope you are having a good pleasant day and loads of positive wishes and stuff to you. So lets just cut the chase and jumping right to the main topic. This post is going to let you know a little thing that every parent tends to do and the reason why it is wrong.
We all know or have experienced how much joy the feeling of parenting a child gets. The never ending desire of being there always for them and getting them everything they wish to have in their dreams. The parents feel that its their duty to get them the stuff every stereotype girl or guy should have. Like if you have a baby boy, you give them the stuffed animals and maybe some cars or rubber balls but if she’s a girl you would get her dolls and tea sets and all the typical girly stuff.Well that all is acceptable but in the end you end up getting her fairy tales which is something horribly wrong!
Yes, I am a girl and my big,thick book of fairy tales was ,is and will always be something very, very dear to my heart! I haven’t yet thought or tried to discard it no matter even if I have turned into an adult. Yes, girls love fairy tales and parents do end up getting their adorable sweethearts that book.
Here’s why girls love it and why that’s the wrong thing parents do –

  • ·         When you give her the book you start making her believe in happily ever after which in reality never ever happens.
  • ·         You start moulding her to think that the step mothers are always cruel which they generally aren’t ever.
  • ·         You make her feel that there is going to be a fairy god mother turning up at her door and granting all of her wishes which we all know that don’t exist.
  • ·         You make her think that she has to be good and kind to everyone and bear with all the shit which people around throw at her so that she ends up turning an ideal daughter. But seriously should we take crap from people or give up a taste of our own?
  • ·         You teach her that there is going to be that one prince charming who would hit up on her doors on a white horse, kiss her and take her away into his own magical kingdom. Well magical kingdoms in 21st century?
  • ·         You make her believe that evil exists but in black clothes with a dark, shabby makeup and a glossy dark lipstick. But don’t females generally end up getting ready the same way for parties?
  • ·         And you make guys presume that they are superior to their female counterparts, that they are braver, bolder and are the sole bread-earners. Aren’t they supposed to know the truth that there is no superiority but just mutual co-existence?

Read them stories which make them get in terms with reality!
Read them stories which makes them independent but not superior!
Read them stories which increases their confidence and boosts their morale and not just makes them think that they would end up in a house sewing clothes and washing utensils until prince charming swoops up.
Read them stories of women which would inspire them and which did happen ‘once upon a time’ and not just some cooked up imagination.


 Let your children not 'regret' the same after they lose 18 years of that child!
Exchange their books now! Like right now!
Or maybe you could let them have their fairy tales for the imagination quotient but also brief them up with the reality? How about that?

Okay so its time for the next post!!! Dont worry its not those typical mother’s day post where i’ll pen down the importance of what a mother does and how thankful we should be to her and etc. stuff because by now all are acquainted with those things. So now you all shall be wondering that what its todays post exactly about??? You shall find your answer ahead. I love giving surprises on all occasions and specially its related to mom & dad :p So i just went on a random shopping trip to a local gift shop, bought a gift after much of hullabaloo and then while gift packing the gift the shopkeeper asked me the occasion behind the purchase of that gift. I smiled,”Its for my mother!!” So he interrupted me and completed my sentence,”Ohhhh!! For her birthday!”. I was about to laugh and then i just said,”It’s Mothers Day on Sunday.” He was actually shocked by hearing that and that did put me in a dilemma but then he further added,” Ki hume to kabhi aisi gift kharidneka maan hi n...

I know I promised you all weekly posts but I just could restrict posting today!!😅😅 So as we all know the result season has already started and is on full speed!! Its like a train which is moving on with dropping someone down & picking someone up!! The results are more like descrimination as it divides students into three bits:- 1.Toppers 2.Averages 3.Failures (Pillars) P.S.all names decided by imperfectionist herself I don't think the toppers even need to read this post coz they would be way too happy wherever they are & whatever they have achieved But the rest u need to watch this out!! Results don't decide your life & its okay if they are not good enough Results are just an important part of life as exams are!!! They come & they go If they are good they make you happy & if they are bad they make you change because results are nothing but the fruits of the applied hard work which you do in exams!! DONT EVER GET DISAPPOINTED WITH  THEM!!! P...

The Lost Best Friend

THE LOST BESTFRIEND It is said:”Destiny forgets to tie some people in blood relations but then it corrects its mistake by making them your friends.” Whosoever said it, cheers dude because that’s absolutely true.   BEST FRIEND : A person with whom u can share your darkest of secrets, tell any random stuff, hit them in the face, abuse them, love them, confide in them, advise them and do some crazy shit with them. You may have a single best friend or you may have many like different ones for different situations :P A BEST FRIEND makes your life worth living and fills it with all the colours that your life is deprived of. They are just like your family & they may even know stuff about you which even your parents won’t. But today this post is not about the role of a BEST FRIEND but its actually a tale which is very close to my heart: THE LOST BEST FRIEND..... The above image was so true for me. I seriously didn’t think he shall matter so much to me. ...
