Parents today lavish too much affection on their children. But such affection alone is not enough. There should be both ‘love’ and ‘law’. Only when both love and restraint are present will the love prove beneficial. For all the evil habits of children, who are naturally innocent and uninformed, the parents are primarily responsible. Parents today do not make any efforts to teach proper ways of behaviour to the children. They pamper the children by giving them money and gifts freely. They want their children to become officers, to earn large incomes, acquire wealth and lead a life of comfort and ease. But they do not consider for a moment how they should make the children realise the need to develop good qualities. It is up to parents to teach the children to cultivate right attitudes and moral qualities. Parents should feel happy only when they see their children leading blameless lives, acquiring a good name and behaving properly.

Agree AstroMaestro

Also parents disconnected them selves from the nature and their kin as well, if they integrate real nature (not just potted plants at home) in their lives, it will teach the kids a connection with the soil, nature and environment. I once read a very informative article a while back about how the credit system of living today has has become a big problem in our society, in nature you cannot do that, if you plant a seed today depending on the type of fruit one you can harvest quickly and for some you have to wait a couple of years for a seed to grow into an apple tree. This fundamental experience is lacking in today’s generation. They feel everything can be bought today. This needs to be looked into deeply by all of us. Thank you.
