Struggle of a child's life.

If it is not a miracle, then it should be declared a feat of no equal. I am talking about the journey of a Indian citizen from his childhood to early adulthood as lots of paradoxes are induced in his life by multiple polarized school of thoughts.

Those who have this special privilege of getting born in India and that too in a middle class, God fearing home, I must say he should be honored with highest award possible on this earth, let us see why.

When a person getting born in this country, any state, no matter if it is village, town or city he has to go through the all of the life cycles and paradoxes of which only few I  am going to describe.

When a child attains the age of the 2 -3 yrs, his curiosity starts to build up, he wants to know, and to experiment about the things. So parents, and teacher alike, tell him the first tale of fear to make him comply to their school of thoughts. He is taught to be fearful of darkness, of people who wander here and there, of far places and all.

Yet in school books teaches to be fearless. All his childhood heros are fearless, I remember mine FLASH GORDON, HE MAN, SPIDERMAN, SUPERMAN and many more.

Second, while child always wants to know more, most of the time teachers and parents instead of quenching their thirst of knowledge, tells them they are too small to understand things.

While all our books, our ideals talk about getting knowledge and wisdom from elders, so it is elders who do not want to share.

When a child want to play with the big boys (parents and all) they simply refuses because of lack of time, hence (child) have to play videogames.

So my point is the society expect exactly opposite of what they teaches to us. It taught us to fear, so we started fearing  Govt, people who do wrong things, starts fearing even walking on road alone, darkness and anything and everything, while when gaining adulthood IT WANTS US TO BECOME FEARLESS! What a joke.

It( society) taught "If everyone is doing a  thing, then I can do that as well", while it expect us to live life like "No matter what others do, I will do what is right"

It taught us to live alone, now they want us to live in family. When we required time they(parents) was working and running after money, now they require time and we are running after money. Yet they want us to stick to moral grounds.

List is quite long, I can write a book on this (But too boring! )

So at the end I am here to conclude that a child’s life is full of paradoxes; society teaches him exactly opposite of what it wants him to be. ! Think about it.
