My mother has a little request for you. She was asking if you could one day give a talk on parenting. Nowadays she sees many newer generation parents who are unable to handle their children. They are not strict and firm, even when they need to be. Some parents completely neglect the child and give the excuse of making them ‘independent’. As a result, the children don’t learn how to manage themselves properly. Unfortunately, some of them fall into the hands of the wrong company and take a dangerous route (drugs, etc). If you could give a little talk on this topic, that would be greatly appreciated. 🧑‍🍼🌱🏡🤹❤️

My younger brother (9 years old) is too sensitive, emotional and arrogant. He cries TOO MUCH at silly things wasn’t showed enough expressive love by our parents hence craves for it. He is too stubborn and doesn’t stop screaming until the thing gets done for him..is too delusional that he thinks everything will be served to him in the plate. Whenver i try to make him understand by saying that he needs to work hard and stop wasting time on watching other people succeed(cricket; he is too attached to it..as if his life depends upon it) he doesn’t take my words seriously or maybe he just doesn’t understand what im trying to say. I don’t understand how to tell him how important physical and mental discipline is and that without it he would face serious consequences. Please guide me in this context amd how my parents should change in order to bring the best in him. 👦🎒🛹

How to recognise psychic and vital? I am a devotee of Sri Aurobindo and Divine Mother. They have saved my life from many set backs.

I am a single parent, brought up two children., they are grown ups, in their 50s. I am concerned, so asked my son, over which he is terribly upset. 🧑‍🧑‍🧒🛡️🌱🧸

i see lot if restlessness yet lot of clarity in todays kids. Say between 10yrs to 20yrs the age group I work with.. This restlessness is what worries me at times, human relation in the name of crush, boyfriend, girl friend starts with physical intimacy than anything else, even before their emotions, physical and mind even understands what it is to get into a relationship? As fast as they go they come back and next day looking for another one.There are few who understand these and stepback but the seed must be there for them to understand what Mother and Gurudev said. How about others? Do we have to just look at all this as Gods play?📱🎧🎮🤳
