Growing Up in the Shadows: Children and the Consequences of Parents Mistakes

We're often punished in our life for the mistakes committed by the parents and it happens with so many kids unfortunately who haven't got good parents

it's more like challenge for these kids to face and live with those parents who don't treat them well cuz the way they do parenting have made living a lot difficult for them kids.

Because when they go out and meet those other people in real life they feel awkward, their social anxiety will be at it's peak with no confidence to discuss anything all because of bad parenting, shouting all the time, cutting children when they speak.

Getting Punished for the Sins of Father

There a saying our old people says a lot that when you as a father or mother do something wrong to someone's child or let's say any human than fear those days when your children will have to go through the same situation

It's all because of karma but one thing I don't get is why children have to deal with the sins committed by the parents.

I mean if my father did injustice with someone's than I'm not the one who deserves to get punished for that since it's my life and my choices and actions are different than them

Yet I've seen that there's a lot of cases where kids are living that kind of life or going through worst situations because it's the karma.

in this society

There are cases where if a father committed a sin like robbed a house in other neighborhood and got caught now in jail

What will happen is that father is getting punished but that won't stop there, everyone in the neighborhood are going to start bullying that child cuz he's his son

That kid will have nicknames in places that'll remind "oh my father did this and now I'm getting blamed"

Same thing in school, everywhere that kid go and there's people who know about the incident are going to mock kid and judge him that "he's on his father" won't let their kids go near him and so punishment goes on like this until one day everyone forgets that ever happened

Are kids supposed to bear the burnt of bad choices made by parents?

The children partake in the blessings and joy of parents but that means children also partake in the struggle and bad times of parents

Haven't seen children stepping back when things are tough for parents and even if their parents have committed some sort of crime they won't let police get near them easily

At least that's how kids are in our side of the world, I can do that for my parents and it's not that hard or difficult to bear the burnt of parents bad choices

But what I'm against is those kids who aren't even 18 and their childhood get ruined by these choices of parents and than society making life a living hell for that kid, this is unacceptable and think no child deserves it

Wrapping Up...

I know the fact that no parents want to see their child suffering because of their bad choices and it's same for the kids that they willingly partake and wants them to get away with the whole situation so their life becomes normal again

It's not that complicated, these blood relations are always meant to be stick with each other through the bad times no matter what

But I feel sad for the poor kids who's childhood becomes a nightmare in these kind of situations.

In the end I wonder what's your thoughts are on this, do share it in the comments.
