No.324 - Children self discovery

 


Children self discovery

 

Children grow up and leave home.  They go from the helpless babes in your arms to mature adults . They do lots of things behind our backs. Allow them. We just back off . We have to learn to keep pace  that's all. We must resist to do everything for them. Yes, just dont  give them too much responsibility  to carry. Allow them to try . Dont offer help unless asked.

With age they progress.  We don't have to stand by ready with tissue to wipe any spillage when they drink. As teenagers , we expect them to tidy after themselves.  They may not know the tricks of the trade. This is where we as adults, as parents  comes in. They may be not be apt at their work. They may do things badly, in different  ways from us.  Let them . Allow them to cultivate skills, habits . Allow them to discover themselves .  We just hand them responsibility  little by little but with guidance. They then will be able to have the strength to face the ups and downs of life.

Dont expect too much from them . Give them a longer rope to explore ... just standby and watch them develop  and morph....
