This time of December is for picnics. Music is playing and warming up. In the fields, markets and ghats, there are also noisy gatherings in the name of waz by so-called viral speakers. I don’t know if there are fairs anywhere now! But there is qawwali! It’s a good arrangement for noise pollution! Meanwhile, the school, college and university holidays create an opportunity for children and mothers to go out. Strange parents force small children to sit with books in their hands even during this time! Some quench their thirst with mobile phones!
Picnics in the name of picnics, in the name of waz-mahfils, talking nonsense about women and politics – it is better to go to the house of abandoned relatives than to listen to all this. At least we get to know our roots with our children. This time of December was the golden age of our childhood. What a feeling of independence. Changing classes means growing up a lot! Will those days of sharing and arguing with each other while everyone lies in a circle with blankets and listens to stories come back?
If you can afford it, go for a walk. Go to a place that avoids crowds. Have fun. Even if you sit like a statue yourself during this time, at least don’t tie your children up. Let them run with their cousins. Don’t stop them even if they stumble, get hurt or get black. Let them catch a cold, sneeze. At least when they grow up, even if they are alone, some memories to cherish will be stored in their memory. Don’t let the future generation grow up robotically by killing idle time and hoarding wealth! Spend, if necessary, take on debt.
If the children in the village want to get together and have a party, you should arrange everything from behind. Just protect them from water and fire and let them do whatever they want. The rest of the year, they are kept in jail. So, even if you are away from school for fifteen days, it will not stop your child from becoming an Einstein! Give the children the opportunity to understand that they too have an independent world. Most of the children of those who are too careful get spoiled! What can be taught by reading books is not less than what can be taught by going around.
In our childhood, we used to fly kites, play bouchi-gollachut. Your children are also playing! Online games on your mobile in the room! They are talented, but do not keep them near hybrid animals in their thinking and consciousness. Give them a wide field. Let the villagers also learn to use their tongues. They need to learn to mix with people. Do not miss this opportunity of socialization. Go somewhere and bring someone for a visit. Let the children mix with the children. Their mental development is very important. Even if you are in prison, keep your child in the open air.
