What are the compacts of society developments on parenting?
We don´t necessarily have to become parents to know and understand the compact of this phase in every human beings life. Our society have made up the perfect picture of the perfect family that every family should be able to achieve , but in real life it isn´t that easy to maintain happiness with a less perfect family while comparing one´s life with the perfect picture. I believe that this is some form of a false media image that do filtrate our life and makes us feel less happy in the real world with the real family problems that every family in this world may go through.
The compact of modern societies are that they always are striving to achieve the best and the more perfect developments, may cause relationship trauma in one´s family. Because we grow up to be the type of parents that always are striving to achieve perfection in every aspect in life, which is impossible. That can lead to disappointments and feelings of failure.
We become parents and together build bigger nations of parents obsessed with doing everything for our kids to ensure they´ll turn out right. It is completely right to give ones child the best a parents could give but by doing that we will be rising up a generation of big babies, that thinks that their world should be more perfect and more profound.
That leads to bigger problems that I will be mentioning in my next article. But as parents, we grow into a role that was premade by a surreal picture instead of enjoying every minute and every second of our kids´ developments.
Do me a favor and ask yourselves, are you perfect? Or have you had the perfect life as a child?
I believe that everyone, even the most "perfect" of all lives, will still find things they don´t enjoy.
It is very important that we do try to see the real side in our society and try to enjoy life as it is instead of trying to overdo our lives in hope to achieve something´s that do not exist in real life.
