As Equal As Us


 

Do you mind if a child disturbs you when you are doing something, but at the same time you find it is perfectly okay that you barge in when the child is doing something?

Do you often think that it is important that we control children, yet it is not acceptable when children try to control a situation?

Somewhere we are operating from a pedestal. Somewhere we think that we are up here and children are down there. That is why we think that they need to be controlled, told, scolded, and punished. Somewhere we think we are superior, we know more and hence the need to 'drive them'.

But what would happen if we consider them as equals? What will happen if we treat them with respect, work with them as if they are AS EQUAL AS us. What would we get if we were to give RESPECT.
