Hi! Have you ever think that sometimes we put barden on our children that hampers his nomal thinking power? We often discipline our children. It is true that without discipline a child can't learn the proper lessons of life. But sometimes we over disciplined to our children. I remembered that my childhood was full of mental pain. My family always created pressure on me to study attentively. But their pressure given upon me hampered my normal behaviour and thinking instead of mental and studious development.

There are a lot of Children who has interest on creative works but over discipline interrupt their creativity. Guardians creats extra pressure and in that case they lost their freedom of thinking. Diffrent children has diffrent interest. They have interest on dancing, singing, reciting, drawing, swimming etc. Sometimes they don’t talk about their interest with thier parents. They are always fearful of their parents. I saw an indian movie Tare Jameen Paar means The star has come on the ground. There ia a little boy named Ishan has the creativity of drawing. But he never share this with his parents. His parents always disciplined him for study. Ishan had a free mind to see the world from his own his perspective. But his school and his parents totally destroyed his fantasy. But a new drawing teacher of his school understood that Ishan has some special quality .
So he supported Ishan and he got the first place in drawing competition. Like this movie thousands of Ishan is around us but their creativity died at the early age. For the lackings of proper care they can't show their latent talents. We know Thomas Alva Edison the inventor of electric light was mentally weak in his childhood. He was refused to study from his school. Her mother got a refusal letter.
But her mother didn’t show him the letter on that time because it would hit the tender mind of Edison. Instead of telling the original message she told her son that the school is not eligible to teach such a meritorious boy like Edison. So she would teach him from house.
With the help and support of her mom Edison reached the top of the success. We all havo to learn from this history. We should give the chance to our children to do what the want if it is ligal. We should let them run under the open sky. Let them play in the field with their friends. Appreciate their creative works. It will make them more creative and broad minded.
