The legacy


There are people of my age who run companies, countries are billionaires and yes last but not the least have 2 kids to take to school . Yes people much younger to me are doing all these too with full ease and enthusiasm .Some of the most successful people of my age come from the poorest and the richest affluent part of the society, they come from families which are well knitted with high moral values and families where the kids have seen their mothers being beaten by their drunk fathers and some were not lucky enough to see a father because their fathers had deserted them.
Need not to be successful even the normal common men and woman like us had different kinds of parents. From the caring ones to parents who would actually never took attention to what you were doing.Parents who would actually never accept you talking to your opposite sex to parents who would actually give you your first sex education.
The world is not an ideal place to live and there is nothing perfect so are not the kids not their parents. People are proud of their parents because that’s natural they are the first adults you look up to.we follow our parents their personality traits their behavior what not. I remember my mother telling me how I had actually shaved of my eyebrows as a kid with my father’s shaving blades. We act like those monkeys who would imitate you no matter what you do.we gradually grow up and become this rebels at home in our adolescence trying to break rules fighting for any and every reason than comes the adulthood when the storm settles and we slowly evolve into individuals with opinions ,ideas and principles.
But all above facts don’t hold true for everyone especially in our society where parents are not able to give away their hold over children and in some cases the kids want to shelter themselves under their parents forever. It’s a common trend and belief that a guy looks for a mother in his wife and a gal her father and that’s true for most of the human beings.
Have you ever thought the life of a man who had been replaced by her father in her life god take mercy on that poor fella from running around with her shopping bag to paying her bills from running errands for her to carrying her to her every relatives party she wants to attend everything is so father like and the end of it that beautiful girl u had fallen in love with her sensibility her wisdom her understanding is all lost and you are now playing the oh so happening life of a babysitter atleast their life is better because they are paid well and can take leaves.
No comes the mama’s boys the guys who have never places their half-eaten food into the trash or washed their clothes (in some cases their undergarments) why because they had been thought as handicapped kids or adults who needs constant guidance. Imagine a girl getting married to such a guy I mean it’s a nightmare.
Parents are as human as we are they feel the way we do they are human beings made out of flesh and blood .they can be right or wrong .good or bad don’t take them as the yardstick to measure your spouse teachers even your in laws .Grow up and accept your life as an adult don’t complaint that my mother wanted a big fat wedding so I am bankrupted these are lame excuses for people who don’t know what they want to do in life. If you are right make them understand if you are a human they are too if you can commit mistakes they can as well. No need to god worship them love them respect them don’t make them an excuse for what you couldn’t achieve. Women don’t torcher your husband saying that I am a daddy’s daughter and start spending your husband money that guy is someone’s son too. Be what you are because we all are a part of a parents already no need to be a clone J.
