    hey hemu i also agree that sometimes children take their parents for granted but same is the case other way around....

    ya parents too take their children for granted... i know they have given us birth but then are we suppose to follow their each and every order... dont we have a minds of our own and aint we capable of taking our own decisions....

    if yes then why the hell do they keep on poking their nose in every single matter????

    dont they have enough trust on us or else what is it????

    Hey denny how you doing? I have been a bit busy lately so haven't got time to check out Rambhai. Well Denny its a nice question you have asked and I would try to answer it but a perfect answer will be given to you the day you will become a father :)

    1. Parents never take us for granted neither they poke their nose rather they just try to understand what we have been trying to do- 'Basic Human Curiosity'. Actually in English we have a term for this 'Care' and that's what parents do!! Even if a person keeps a dog, he cares about it and I suppose we are more than dog to our parents.

    2. I would ask you a questing have you ever had a discussion with your parents regarding any issue? What was their response and how well you were in conveying your message to them?If you haven't then try it once because I have done it many times and its not that my parents are very open-minded rather I would say they are among most narrow-minded people but still discussing with them have helped me a lot!! Many times they were right and many times I was, but all the time the fallout of the discussion was same " My success, benefit and prosperity' irrespective of the fact who had the last cake - me or my parents.

    3. These guys have more experience than us, we think what we are doing is correct and something different which our parents never did but believe me as 'Garfield' had written in one of his comments "Every action has been done before and every thought has been thought before" (I hope you remember that). The question is not whether we have a mind of our own but- "Is it that difficult to rope in the people who have selflessly helped us and will be helping us in our very own so called 'personal matters' "

    4. Last but not least I would again like to quote "First we are children to our parents, then parents to our children, then parents to our parents, then children to our children." Lets hope you wont be doing that poking stuff while being a parent to your 'own children and your own parents.'

    PS: DEFINITELY I AM GONNA POKE MY NOSE IN EVERY MATTER CONNECTED TO MY CHILDREN, NOT BECAUSE I WONT BE TRUSTING THEM BUT BECAUSE I WOULD BE CARING FOR THEM AS I WOULD BE LOVING THEM!! THIS IS WHAT I DO WITH MY FRIENDS AND I HOPE THEY DONT HAVE THIS FEELING OF "HEMU POKING HIS NOSE IN THEIR EVERY SINGLE MATTER "

    Sorry but I get bit disappointed and aggravated while discussing on such matters :) No pun and insult is intended on anyone, these are my individualistic thinking and I don't expect anyone to abide by them.

    Its the same thing i was talking about yesterday. When someone loses the habit of being advised on what to do and what not to do, it becomes a problem. You will also find people who will listen to their friends but never to their parents. they believe that the friends understand them better. just like hemu said, try discussing the stuff out with your parents, like you would do with a friend and then you might find some difference in your belief. Every two years when i grow up, i look back and realize what a fool i was 2 years ago. Our parents who are like 20-30 years elder to us, even taking into account the progress and some whole lotta changes, can certainly guide us for way beyond what we think they can.

    hope this article should open up a few eyes!!

    hey whenever i become a father i am gonna trust my children and provide them enough freedom so that they wont have any complains....

    2)

    pt no 1) parents care for us but then they should understand the fact that we can also take our decisions and they should accept our decision.....

    2)my parents are free minded and they generally dont interfere with my decisions.... but i have some of my friends whose parents are never ready to listen to them forget abt discussing.... this is purely rigid thinking...

    3)i knoiw they have more experience but then times have changed and so is the society.... they should adapt and accept the change...

    4)the quote is beautiful and realistic

    i respect ur viewpoint and dis was mine.... i know u have not liked it but pls dont take it personally and i hope u understand....
