A Child's Journey

The path of life

By Rohitha LankaPublished 10 months ago 1 min read

The road of my child's life... Parents are just showing the way.

Children have to walk on their own legs.

No one can walk for him.

Parents may walk beside them.

But in the end... Kids have to walk on their own.

When it's time to choose your child's life path.

For example, study, work, and life partner.

Parents can advise their children.

But in the end, the child has to choose the way he likes

Parents should accept and support their children in all aspects.

Parents should not show their children the way.

As parents think is "best".

The best thing for parents

Probably not the best with the kids

Everyone has their own "life road"...

    I totally agree with these lines :" But in the end, the child has to choose the way he likes Parents should accept and support their children in all aspects."
