Child Upbringing - My way...


After quite a battle within on if I could document what my mind was working up with, 
here comes my first blog post....


And, although I have a fair bit to write, since this is just the beginning, I'm drawn to keeping it simple.


With the growing demands of the society where you fight the battle being a parent to keep your kids directed on the right line, the best thing that you can do is getting them interested in following someone.. 
Yes.., ideally a sports person/celebrity for his/her personality. Well, this does not change the whole world, but, a change can be inflicted in a few.

Being a favourite...., being followed..., has reasons... Although, those that reach out to people through the most powerful medium called films are easily idolized.., there are others, but only a few who are modelled up on also for their virtues..


Say obedience, say modesty, say courteousness, say honesty, say knowledge, say experience, say intelligence, say independence, say courage, say multi-talent, say more.., 
Or, just say Chinmayi...


Yes.., I am easily an enthusiastic fan of hers not for her singing alone, but also for her being all that said above.

Chinmayi and her mom Smt. Padmhasini being in the public forum, have done more good than one can realize. I can say, I am lucky enough to get their acquaintance and so is my daughter. If you are a fan of Chinmayi for her singing, you should also visit her blogs.

There is more coming in here. But, I would like to stop here for now.


The idea was to give a lead to good things I know.. I hope this post does it. 
Before I close,  I humbly request you, the reader.., to just leave this behind if it goes against your beliefs and if interested, to give in your comments.



Thanks,
Priya

  1. Hi there, hearty welcome to the world of bloggers..and happy blogging. I enjoyed reading through your post. An interesting piece of article to begin with and a nice documentation. I have been a regular follower of Chinmayi and her blogposts for quite sometime and i must admit, i seem to be completely agreeing with your observations...She is a great inspiration to many and there are lot many things to imbibe from her..

    You have made an interesting observation by stating that parents could direct their children to follow such persons..Its a pity that Children get carried away only by their celebrity status and many a time fail to idolize on their finer qualities...There, it really is a point worth taking it...

    Expecting many more such interesting posts from you..
    cheers..

  2. wishing u gudluck in your new endeavour priya, waiting to see more blogs from u, according to me let the kids be themself, allow them to experiment everything in life which will help them to follow the right path, connect with them emotionally, be there for them whenever they need you becoz loneliness is dangerous.

  3. A good beginning,but the intro seems to be general and nice but ultimately leading to your appreciation of your friend and her mom if not her blogs. Anyway keep trying. You have a nice flow needed for good blogging. All the best.

  4. welcome to the world of blogging. Kids get distracted very easily and the ease with which Advita operates iPad, am not sure if it is a healthy sign or not. I prefer kids to go out and play so tht they have some physical activity and they get to meet lots of ppl..i hope they learn life's lesson in a hard way just like we did.

  5. Good. First of all, nice 2C u blogging.

    As regards parenting, everyone knows dat for the child, the first school is home. In order 2 bring up a child in the way it shd go, v must first travel that way ourselves once in a while. Also, the world talks 2 the mind; parents speak more intimately -- they talk 2 the heart. There is no friendship, no love, like that of the parent for the child. Our presence is more important 2 them than our presents! All the best !!

  6. Good post...
    And, what a person..!!! I fell in love with the song "Ennuyir Thozhiye" at the instance just as I watched the film "Kangalaal Kaidhu Sei".. I hadn't heard the songs prior. And, wanted to follow the singer. When I knew it was Chinmayi, I was even more excited coz I had already been secretly rejoicing "Oru Deivam Thandha...". Then, it was time to follow her and good heavens..!!!
    She was almost everywhere doing everything. Got to know her better through her blogs and have to admit at times tried correcting myself when I realized reading her posts how I could've done something...
    To me, she has inherited/cultivated on the go such fine qualities and for her age, that's quite a thing.
    It's good that there are such people around.

  7. Three Cheers and Wishing u all the best in ur new endeavour!!!
    As regards Child upbringing- each child is unique in his /her own way- be it their nature, behaviour, ability , intelligence etc...So, adapting a common theory may not work out... As parents, we have to just educate them about the happenings in and around the society and leave the rest to them . They will learn by themselves...
    The child should be confident of approaching her parents at any time and feel free to discuss with them any type of problems. As a parent, building up this confidence in a child is most important.
