Talk about overprotection these days. how parents wouldnt want their child to be exposed to any risks or dangers. even minor ones. i'm not entirely keen on this mindset. shouldnt a child be allowed some sense and experience of how the world is like.

"Why would you want to do this. this isnt good. It's risky. What if this or that happens.No dont do it........"
(but of course that dosent apply to illegal actions.if not parents should definitely intervene.)

A child constantly under the protection and denial of any tough work will not grow up. she/he will always be in his/her bed of roses thinking the world is a sweet place. ok. maybe not. It's just the parents wishes to keep him out of any misfortunate situations which might happen. Keep the children under their wings and out of any harm. Good? Bad? HMM

some would want to experience similar things so common to some others. it's probably not considered " risky", so trivial in fact. just a nod " yeah. No problem i can do it. " final nod final decision. no comments no disagreements. chopchop. done.

A little biased towards a topic like this. Parents should just loosen up a little. With some limit though and it will be fine!

Stark contrast between the different generations.

A baby just started on his first steps. He fell.
The older generations frantically rushed forward with many " aiyos". More worried if he had injured himself.

The younger generation calmly gave words of encouragement" it's okay. Stand up and walk again".
Thumbs up!If you dont fall you never learn to walk!



SO MUMS AND DADS LETS CHILL A LITTLE.
