Teaching and learning go hand
in hand. As we teach our children virtues, it is not a one way flow. It is a
simultaneous opportunity for us to review our own principles. Somehow, adults
do not retain what they learnt as children.
They say, life happens when
they grow up. It’s never rung true. An excuse! Because all the wrong conditioning
we adhere to very faithfully, so why not the right things we teach our kids?
Double standards and multiple
standards which, fortunately, kids don’t know in their innocence; all the
complexes and small mindedness are developed later, when we forget to apply our
own teachings in our own lives.
