The movie "Taare Zameen Par" was a touching one...Aint this right???? The way the movie proceeded really made me also think about my life...The past, the present....I could find there's an Ishaan Awasthi present there in me too....I know you guys might have also felt the same, but not sure which part reflected your life....Anyways i'm not going to get the details of what the movie was all about and all...But there was an instant when i felt the importance of the love and the expressions of love....The way you expresses your love....

The first question to you...."Have you ever been touched...By love".....The way this phrase can be interpreted depends person to person and family to family. There are families where love is a matter of something "not to be shown in public"....And there are families where if you have to show your love then you should be in touch.....The touch means in simple ways : When your kid is struggling with his studies or when he failed in one or two subjects, what you usually does...The most common middle class family scares the kid by shouting and beating him.....But have you ever cared to go to him and hold him in your arms and keep him to your chest and ask him "what happened my dear"....He might have failed in an exam this time....but have you ever tried yourself protecting your kid by doing anything like this???? This cant be done for a middle class family....The thing is that they believe if you show 'sympathy' to your kid, he might become a spoiled brat.....The future of the kid has already been written in the minds and brains of his parents...He should be send to the best of all schools in the area, he should be the rank 1 in the school, if not at least rank 10....nothing below that can be tolerated....Again its not the end of the dreams, it continues till he's all secure with a professional job (only two options in the modern world 1.Doctor with an MD and 2. Engineer, preferably software engineer)...For that he is put into the rigorous tests, coaching, tuitions....Now if all those helps him to become a professional all well and good for him...Else his days are screwed up for sure....It literally means that if the kid is not living upto the expectations (the expectations are the dreams and desires put forth by his parents) he's going to get a status of "spoiled brat".....Are we doing justice my dear parents??? Have you ever tried to get into the skill sets of your own kid....Have you ever asked him/her what her ambition is??? Have you ever tried to ask yourself what if he wont be able to take up the big challenges of your dreams??? And if he's not able to take them up what is the alternative...Think my dear parents...think....This is the only time you'll be able to think...Once your kid is out of his dilemma he will blame you through out his life for not achieving what he was capable of....Trying to pursue his parents dreams why he ruined himself....Are we not giving him/her the right to live his/her life???? Are we trying to impose something forcibly on the kid???? What should be done???? Are there any means how to find the talents within your kid???? See my dear even i'm not having an answer to this question...But i could only say one thing that if you are not able to figure out the right thing at the right point of time your kid will definitely become a spoiled brat - in a real sense....So its an art to be mastered to act sensibly....

I was deviating from my topic of ever been touched by love....But was not able to hold off from revealing a matter of fact for the modern world of engineer and doctor aspirants (oh forgot to tell that today even this is not the end of the days...the days become secured only after you are securing an MBA - Mediocre But Arrogant- this is taken from a renowned book-I loved that full version)..... The kids always gets to a kind of dilemma when they are not treated well during times...That happens when the other kids are compared to them....Always the kids are smart....And they figures out what they are capable of....The smart kids always makes the majority....So to make the majority happy is a very difficult thing to achieve....Whenever there are problems kids usually turns up to their parents....But when they finds that their parents are not of much help, where should they run to get the relief???? Its a usual happening that encounters with all the kids...Then they will get prone to get the kind of relief they get from some one else.....The kids who usually tends to fall in love at an early stage of their life might be a victim of such a lack of love they received from their parents and family...They finds the comfort that the other person who gives them at the right time in the right manor....That might not be right for someone else, but the very right thing for the kid....So my dear if you have never thought of these kind of things, its time for you to think about this,....The feel of love by means of a touch on his head, holding his hands for a while, keeping him close to his chest, and letting him grieve once he's with you will never allow your kid to move away from you...To love is the easiest thing, even easier than hating someone...But to love by touching some one is a courageous act to be done....So my dear try to touch your kids while you try to express your love to them....
