Now, they even have parenting classes for fear that the parents fail in their endeavour to pave the correct way for their children to reach adulthood. The fear of not bringing out the full potential is reaching dizzying heights as the number of offspring in the family dwindles. Their desire to ensure the continuity of good life is understandable.
Above all, the parents are afraid that their children would one day, God forbid, attribute all their failures in life to their 'dysfunctional' upbringing. 'Dysfunctional' according their juniors and modern psychological definition.
If your parents and their parents thought 'Spare the rod and spoil the child' was the panacea of all indiscipline, do that and find all the SWAT personnels pointing their weapons at your face. Your hugs and touches will be deemed inappropriate and you will listed as a predator. Your absence from important life events would torment your child's childhood so much that they would be stunted psychologically and would encounter issues with commitment. Your lack in dominance in the family decision may attribute to their indecisiveness in life. And the complains keep on piling.
But then nobody talks of lack of drive on the part of the young ones.
When you have nothing and every living day is a question mark and you live hand to mouth and you are left to rot, instantaneous motivation and zest to succeed will snowball from nowhere!
