Childishness Is Next To Godliness: Allow Children To Enjoy Their Childhood

A child brings lot of joy and cheerfulness in life. Happiness is unlimited in the minds of a child. The best day for a person is childhood days. The child’s act of experimenting and exploring keep them engaging through out the day. They are very curious about each and everything they see and hear. They have amazing questioning skills. Their way of thinking and connecting dots are beyond imagination. Boredom is not in their dictionary. They cherish their wonderful moments even in second childhood i.e. old age. There is so much to relish on childhood’s innocent behavior and responses and fun and entertainment. These are the blessing of these day adults and senior citizens.
The real time children of these ages lack everything, trying to figure out something and questioning the basics. They feel their happiness is playing online challenging games, connecting people virtually, hearing what they wanted to hear, speaking for no reasons and texting brings them real joy. The highest form of portraying their valor is taking selfies on critical times, recording death or suicidal statement, standing on wall edges, driving thrills and publishing eating sambar rice as one of their big achievements.
Such is the state of these generation children. We elders have stollen their childhood happiness in the name of education, preference for special classes than family occassions, and gathering for some competitions than social gatherings. Their knowledge on practical life, emotional bonding and social life is always questionable. We are driving them wildly with technology and competitions. With these two factors we drive them crazy to the core of loosing their life in our hands. Sadly, our children don’t have any childhood memories to cherish in their second childhood days. They remember only being on the rat race from their very young age and still going on…
On this children day, our responsibility is to give back what we have got in our hands as childhood memories. Especially, the childhood moments of being with people, engaging productively, thinking sensibly, playing with caution, using resources to the maximum, reparing on own, and creating a place for themselves. We create an atmosphere for our children to adapt slowly and steadily to be in this new form of living by bringing them in place one by one. Let us shows our children that people are our priority, society is our support and life is to live.
Childishness is next to Godliness. Let our children enjoy their real time childhood days by exploring their interest, unleash their true potential, valuing people, engaging productively, creating values, and living their life happily. Reflect our inner child in upbringing our child.
