Something thoughtful to be shared. Children are the seed of the plant. As a parent, what we plant now, we can see the results in the future. Decide now whether you want your child to be the tree with fruits or the tree with dried leaves. Teach your child how to think.  Teach them the right way to think, give them their freedom to think what they need. Respect their needs and decisions. Somehow, It's gonna them who's gonna live in the future. Let them decide what they need to do, correct them if they are in the wrong path, don't be an obstacle for happiness. Some parents don't let their children to learn. In fact, they are trying to get the children's things done by not giving a chance for the kid to THINK or TRY. This is how children tend to become lazier and they start to depend on others for help. Parents should let their kids fall even if it's the tenth time, somehow the child will learn and experience it. When a child is learning to ride a bicycle, the kid will fall several times, but somehow she/he will learn to ride because they find it interesting. Sometimes, these kind of small things teach us how not to give up on something we wanted to do. What would happen to we adults, if our parents didn't let us to think and take decisions by ourselves? And why do parents nowadays are so afraid to do the same thing to their kids?
