Hey peeps, am working for children at my new office. For me, it’s really interesting to work with them. Here in our society family possess a great role in converting the child to a responsible citizen. They keep the authority to take decisions for him even in his 20's. One thing I find really difficult is that in our country parents make up stories all the time to Children. So, for example, Ebin is looking for his Papa, when he's away on a business trip. Rather than say he's working and he'll be back later, the family say 'Papa's gone to buy sweets (Mittaayi/paappam)'. Why not just tell him the truth? I don't like because, apart from not being true, and that Ebin expects his papa to reappear - with sweets (are sweets really better than Papa anyway?!)- it is treating kids as if they're stupid. Which they're not.
