Parenting and motherhood in great distress

Thank you for sharing this Question

Following

A new survey shows that parents are concerned about the impact of the epidemic on their children. The top 3 concerns were about the amount of time children spend on screens and social media, whether their child is being exposed to cyberbullying and whether the child is at risk while onlin

Very great discussion going on here. On this, I think I concur with Antethar Jabar

Swedish policy has stood out in an international comparison with the respect to Covid-19 related restrictions. You can find a study on the mental health of young people in Sweden during the pandemic here:

Dear Professor,

Thank you for the interesting topic of discussion.

I totally agree with everything that you have written in the explanatory part of the topic of discussion. In my opinion, 'togetherness' creates magic. When they are in the company of their parents, they automatically 'feel safe, keep healthy routines, manage their emotions and behavior and build resilience.'

To conclude, it can be said that during a pandemic like this, parents should spent more time with their kids by playing with them, listening to them, sharing talks and discussions with them.

Best regards,

very interesting topic

Dear Anamitra,

Well comment, you included essential points.

Though, one point, about parents total and all the time engagement we here need to think of psychology and pedagogical one aspect of 'society forms Individuals' and this is at treat.

If parents as no other option, are hanging over head constantly of children, adolescents, and post 25 mature adults, there is a huge problem. And

This pandemic has brought this great issue as the future cases.

We needs a little more time to bring the literature out on the points, as usual the thesis comes out at aftermath.

It is a testing time for mankind.

Dear Professor,

Thank you for your valued comments.

I totally agree with you. Too much dependence on parents causes problems in future. It is, therefore, very important to strike a right chord between being with children and setting them free. Actually, in our societies, life has become very difficult. That's why, in many cases both parents are working and so, it becomes difficult for them to spent time with their children. Moreover, the Asian countries are going through a strange phase, when we are accepting the negatives of the west and carefully staying away from their positives. These days, I see a lot of mothers, even who are not working, busy with their kitty parties, clubs, so called friends and social associates. This was not necessarily the case earlier. So, I come across a lot of kids, who are very alone.

Best regards,

Anamitra.

Dear Anamitra

It is a very critical topic of concern.

You are wise and very vigilant too.

Circumstances and fast moving time brought too much complications into society. Outside influence and the tech reaching out too far all positives comes with many negatives too.

You are right parents connecting with children is absolutely best thing.

One thing what the past century's wise men acknowledged and had put the practice in place, taking boys out of mothers clinging and certain talented responsible amen (not relatives) to influence them. For example of patshala, Gurushetra , educational constituencies, to educate them gradually.

The rigidity is dangers and mostly, often Incurs from enclosed continuety of parental visinity, constant influence, without other inputs been available of then people do emerge rigid lead to damaging.

Contrary there is a greater risk otherwise also that outside negative Influence encourages destruction to positive ethical norm or desired value system.

A balance is needed.

It's a difficult test for parents and children.

After all, its difficult to survive from negatives (can be targeted and no chance in that sense). When parents are weak themselves it's even more difficult.

Society or authority must step in/play a part.

In this pandemic, it is going to stay with us, so social reformation is needed, to suit this time evolution.

Srinivas Kasulla, yes, for time being tips can be useful.

Covid-19 is testing time, true.

However, it's never been time challenge Less for parents and for children one or the other ways.

It just crossed my mind to share.

Excerpts from my book Varied Expressions.

"Parenting is the crucial aspect of society. In some communities, specially Asian parents refuse to answer children's questions, and dismiss Childs concern and inquisitions. Parents avoid answering to children's question, is because most parents are so-called Mr and Mrs know it all'. If parents avoid answering with valid explanation to children, that's when the gap begins to create between the parents and children, later on that gap becomes a gulf between them. The children more easily fall in outside influence, because there is no trust between parents and children. By the way, an appropriate level should be maintained too. Explanation should be given by taking into consideration of their growth stages and understandability. Some people say, there isn't an answer to everything. I say, there is a suitable answer to everything. Anyway, children to fall in peer influence that's normal and unavoidable. Some gap, a reasonable distance is also healthy for the child to be able to stretch his or her antenna, allowing to grow and to give scope for his or her own individuality to develop."

"As Parent it's not possible for one to run in every direction. This is when relative, association and community fit in. In my case, Allah put me in maze game test. I am not only or 1st time, there were known few examples, mother of Ismail, mother of Abdul Kadt Jilabi and Imam Malik recalled and thought about. Though, they were successful great Greatest example, my isn't failure either though not to the example of level at all, anyhow."

Parents are often beaten too hard by others from any direction to hit the children hardest.

The message is;

do your best.

Leave to destiny the rest.

(Yes easy to say than done.)
