Thanks Radev.....I truly loved today's dialogues of Dadi...........It is truly upto the elders how they mould the child's personality and character.........On one side is Dadi, who feels miserable, when she came to know that Dev even thought of agreeing to the proposal, on the other hand is Amma, who is encouraging Vish to commit sin after sin.............The day her pot of sins would be full, even Vishaka will not be with amma, and that day is not far off................ This reminds me of the story, which my grand ma used to tell us, when I was kid.............
There was a small boy, who used to steal from others everyday, and used to get things home..His mother asked him, where he got the stuff, he came slowly and whispered in her ear, that he stole from his friend...........His mother who knew he was stealing, never was angry at him, nor did she stop him from stealing..........Stealing small things from friends became a habit for this kid, and as he grew older, his stealing habits grew with him.................One day, he was finally caught, and was about to sent jail..........Then the boy tells the judge, that he has to talk to his mom, before going to jail, to which Judge agreed...........He walked upto his mom, and put his mouth close to ear, as if he was whispering, and then he bit her ear...........The mom screamed in pain...............and asked him, as to why he bit her.................
He says, all this time, whenever he got something, she took it happily, without ever telling he was wrong...........and was part of his wrong doing.......now, when he is punished for those acts, she should also be responsible for those acts, as she has enjoyed the fruits..............He says, being my mother, if you would have stopped it when I was kid, things would have been this way, and today he would have been going to jail.................His mother hung her head in shame................
Moral of the story: If children are going on path of Adharm, if the parents don't stop them, don't reprimand them, then such children are sure going to go astray..............and parents are totally responsible for their destruction..........................................
