Children are losing relationship with the world

 

Parents should constantly be nearby to talk to their children about how things are going because they deal with many issues that they cannot express.

When I was a child in a world with less impact from technology, I was indeed a happy child. My parents weren’t rich, we didn’t go to the playing fields or amusement parks, and we didn’t have toys to play with, yet we were the happiest children, as long as we saw how our parents struggled to provide our needs and make us happy as they pushed to their limits to give us the education we required. There was nothing like mobile telephones, yet communication with our parents never failed. 

  

However, despite the advances in technology, thousands of children's games that can be subscribed to on the internet or played at home, and the birth of collectively amazing mobile phones, many children worldwide are still miserable or unhappy. We need to find out the reason children, despite being in good homes, feel insecure and even go as far as attempting suicide. What wrongs have the parents of most children done to see their children taking their lives? 

  

Money, indeed, can’t buy happiness, but love, peace, and a beautiful world are things that a child needs, but they are hard to find. When children love their parents, but the parents divorce or go their separate ways, it affects the children. A mother can have custody of her children for a week, or vice versa, but the children will never be happier than when they are living together with their parents. Life becomes hard for children when they experience the separation or divorce of their parents at an early age. 

  

History is familiar with pandemics; however, the impact of COVID-19 took its toll on both adults and children. Apart from the lockdown, many lost relatives, brothers, and sisters. This bitter experience pushed many children into depression, and even though the pandemic poses less of a threat today, its impact has been devastating on children. It’s not a child’s wish to become a drug addict; all of them today on the streets or struggling to kick drugs at rehabilitation centers have a story to share. 

  

We can’t underestimate the impact of war on children. Whenever there is war, it affects everyone, including children. On television, when children watch other children as victims, it affects them psychologically. As children, we all hope to see our parents after having a meaningful life on earth; we take care of them and give them a befitting burial after they pass on. However, in today’s world, mothers and fathers are more involved with their children, as death among children and teenagers is increasing.

  

There are many ways for parents to find out the problems of their children to tackle the issue immediately before it gets out of hand. When a child stays in his or her room for a long time, skipping breakfast or lunch, that should be a concern to the parents, as something is wrong. It might not be a big situation, probably only a friendship issue, but at this point, the parent might try as much as possible to show love and give confidence to the child that there is always a bright future for a young one along the path. 

  

Sometimes, the problems would be from the school. School is a venue where many teenagers feel secure and insecure, depending on how friendly the atmosphere is. Parents should always try to find out how the child is doing at school; if there is a problem, that child will never hide anything from you. Once your child speaks to a mother or father about school problems, the parent should immediately contact the school authorities to solve those issues before the child contemplates committing suicide. 

 

When something goes wrong with a child or their life, the parents are held accountable. Every parent should keep this in mind to maintain a relationship with their kids.
