My namaskaras to you swamiji…..i have 2 sons aged 17yrs and 12 yrs …..my elder son is studying 1st year egg and younger son in class 7. They both don’t respect our feelings and never listen to us or grandparents. Elder son is a capable boy to study well but because of his friends and some diversion at this age he dint do well in his 12th…somehow managed to get seat in college by giving some money . But he’s never realising our difficulties we faced since 2 years and still we are seeing him always with his phone, friends etc not at all studying. Younger son also wants only material benefits from us…he also argues with us….really don’t understand why should we have such children who doesnt understand the pains of their parents inspite of telling them so many times. We tried to go for the art of living classes put my younger son also …so that that would mould his character…but we are not seeing any change…..i always have a feeling if we will be deserted once we grow old….children might take away all the money from us and throw us on roads…as I saw a maths teacher’s situation who was begging in trivandrum railway stn being thrown away by her children…finally her students found her photo with details of her and took her away from there….i know we shouldn’t expect anything back from our children but atleast they should let us live peacefully without troubling us in our old age…..kindly advise how to bring up such children….hari om

You are afraid your children want material benefits from you. But do you realize what you want from them? You also want material comforts and care from them when you grow old. To have children was your choice and it is your duty to give to them, without complaints or expectations. When they see that they mean everything for you, they will rise to that responsibility without being asked to do it. All you need to do is show them you trust their ability to grow up and become successful adults. Tell them you are proud of them. Encourage all good things they do even when small. When they do a mistake, instead of blaming, show them how they could have done it differently and better. There is no space for any anxiety. Be thankful to Bhagavan for having given you two wonderful sons and make them feel you are a proud mother. Everything will fall in place. My blessings are with you. Hari Om.
