Karm Cycle
It is not uncommon to hear parents complaining about their children for being insensitive. They go on to criticize the whole generation of children. They do everything to gain sympathy and feel happy to play the role of a victim. However, they conveniently forget their faulty parenting. They do not take into consideration the lack of time and love from their side.
Grandparents even do not initiate a conversation with their grandchildren. They do not show them any love and compassion. They Criticize parents in front of children and still want respect and care from grandchildren. How strange?
Oldage homes are increasing in numbers but are not daycare centers, baby sitters, nannies?
Parents are busy with their professional and personal needs. They arrange caretakers for children instead of personally taking their care. When these children grow up, they do the same thing. They get busy with their schedule and arrange care or senior care home for parents. What is wrong with this?
Professional responsibilities and social connections take priority over family time and care for both parents and grown-up children. Parents leave their sick child home or pack medicines in their lunch and send them to school, only to keep their career and inflow of money. When these children reach adulthood, they do the same thing with their parents. Strollers for children get replaced by wheelchairs for parents. What we do to our children practically comes back to us. We are demonstrating and setting an example of how to live life- relations last and money first. What goes around comes around.
