AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER

We have a very strict sir, he scolds us at no reason, he once took my iPad, because it started with a notificationšŸ˜”. When we ask him a very logical question he shouts back at us saying why donā€™t you understand anything. And when we donā€™t ask a question he says why are you not involved in the class. In the exam he has given us a topic which he did not teach in class and it was hard. In the mock paper he should have given 35 mins but gave only 15 mins . He also had to check the pt papers within a week but gave in 2 weeks and 1 day. He also scolded us for not doing the homework but that only 4 people did not do out of 24 so why are the rest have to be scolded. What should we do?

You should learn from him how one should not behave as a grown up. And since you cannot change the teacher use it as an opportunity to remain unaffected and indifferent to things you do not like. That is a great power and this is a great opportunity to learn this lesson of bearing things without reacting with anger or frustration when things don’t go our way.

Affectionately,

Alok Da

My niece who is 12 yrs old doesn’t like sharingšŸ˜„. If she takes her favorite food to school and her friends ask her to share, she doesn’t give or gives a very small piece. If by chance she happens to share a chocolate with girls she doesn’t like, she wants to snatch it away. She is attached to Krishna, and only thing that pacifies her is when we tell her that Krishna likes if she shares what He has given her. She says “I know it’s bad, i know it’s a devil that says this, but I can’t overpower it. It tells me that those girls did bad and said bad things about you, instead of that you shared your things, now you go steal something from them. Or I keep thinking what will I get if I give them”..[conti]
