We parents let go our chances of having fun to save a little for our children's future. That is universal and every parent does that. Parents find peace in seeing their child happy. But, is it always good to save for your children ?

Well, being a parent myself, I would say that you should save a little for your children but not a the cost of your own enjoyment. Every body earns to have a safe and enjoyable life and letting it go for the future of your child who might himself/herself earn is wrong. I have seen parents complain about how they had saved all their earnings for their children who are now grown up and don't care about them. To such parents I want to ask, did your child tell you to save? Well, it is completely an individuals choice of how to lead his/her life.
Properties that we make for our children also end up as reasons for disagreement within children. Each child would want a bigger size of his/her parents property and that leads to spats amongst the family members.
One such case happened here in India wherein a lady took stand on her deceased husband's behalf during a property dispute. Her brother in law's children got so furious that they chased the 55 year old lady to a busy street and kept thrashing her till she stopped breathing. All this happened on a busy street in full public view but people around choose to remain silent spectators to this crime.
Indian police were as usual late to arrive, but they did arrest the criminals who are now behind bars and awaiting bail. I wish people around who remained watching the crime happen could try to stop the fight.
