I was watching an interview which featured Javed Akhthar and Shabana Azmi on Zoom. And Javed Akhthar said a beautiful quote, which is stuck in my head. "Maa-baap kamaan ki tarah hote hai aur bachche teer ki tarah. Jab tak kamaan teer ko chodta nahi hai, teer apne nishaane pe lagta nahi hai".
So simply said, but great depth.
A lot of families i see don't want to let go of their children, even when their children are actually adults, office-going and worst even married. Parents think that their child is living their unfulfilled dream and hence want to give them everything that they didnt receive in their childhood- shower them with love, pamper them with things, educate them in a best possible way. i don't blame them for their behavior, but they need to realize that their children are not children anymore. a different point of view or an independent step is not betrayal of emotions.
