Hello everyone and welcome to this week hive Ghana weekly prompt,I am quin.lizzy and today I will be writing about the topic"different parental perspectives".
So many parents have pass through hardship, discipline and pain that naturally the wouldn't what their children to experience such in life,but wish for a smooth and happy life,must at times the seem to forget that this hardship in life is what actually shape them and make them understand and experience life.
I will be writing about a mother,she pass through so much in life,she was staying with her guardian cause her parents were not well to do and were in the village.For her to have a good education she decided to come to her uncle's place.
The only brother of her mother,her uncle's wife which is her aunt was to harsh on her, especially for the fact that she wasn't her own biological child.
A ten year old girl,was made to do all the chores form sweeping to cleaning and washing.She will be woken early in the morning by her aunt to prepare her three years old child for school.
But she still kept being serious in her studies,even though it affected her emotional.She then swore that her children wouldn't feel pain in any possible way as far as she can avoid it.
She grew up,got married and gave birth to her own daughter Elsie.She doesn't allow her to do anything at home.A grown girl of fifteen years can not properly wash plate because she wasn't allow to do so at home.
She was all lazy and disrespectful cause her mother overlooked so many things in the name of avoiding pain and never wanting her to pass through what she experienced in her early life.
Elsie got admission and came to the university,another totally different world.She decided to get a roommate her best friend,Elsie doesn't partake in the darling chores and even if she does it wouldn't be properly done.
Her best friend always sit her down, understanding she wasn't train that way,she keeps trying to let her understand the reason she has to do the needful,even though it's going to be tough to start doing what she doesn't do but she has to for her future.
Indeed,their are some aspect of hardship,like the struggles financially which I wouldn't like my children to experience but I would make sure that the go through discipline and understand that in life you don't get what you want easily,you have to work for it.
