Being A Parent

A friend of mine made me mull over the difficulty of being a parent. A parent who comes from an obedient world would expect to be having an obedient child if the rule of karma is applied. Does karma really plays a role in our lives ? In simple english karma brings the meaning " you do good you get good....you do evil you get evil". If karma gets it right then parenting would be easy but when its not how one should react.Would it be appropriate to say its not fair. Guess I am still far from experiencing the agony of a parent's disappointment to make accusations over karma ruling but as I said to my friend..... nobody said it's going to be easy. Instead of succumbing to the disappointment's, one should collect themselves and march on to see where it went wrong. I am sure all the answers are there to all the "why's" that is mushrooming every time a child disobeys. Every appropriate actions taken needs love in it as love is the main ingredient of a healthy family.

At times in this real world our faith could fail us when we needed them most. Moments like this is when we need to step up by bracing ourselves. I believe giving up on kids is the core of a disobedient child. I am yet to walk the path of having a teenage child but I must say "gracias" in appreciation to my friend who made me ponder over parenting world.
