Invisible Psychological Damage that Parents cause to Children

Everyday I see a growing number of parents who are pushing their children to dangerous psychological limits.

Under the umbrella of love and better life for the child, they are exposing their children to such psychological harm that the child can land up having depression, excess aggression, cheating, stealing, lying and cess sexual drive.

One of the main reasons for this phenomenon to happen is "The Glamour Factor".

Fame, Name, Power and Money are becoming the corner-stone of "success".

Gone are the days when "success" was equated to being happy and peaceful.

Constant comparisons, desires to create stars, magical thinking are increasingly breaking psychological boundaries of young minds. Leading to dangerous behavioral practices.

1. Fame and attention at younger and younger ages  -
Media is a money making entity. It has slowly introduced singing, dance, spelling and even cooking as a great way to attain fame/attention at young and younger age.

unfortunately most parents who push their children to "DEVELOP" this natural talents, don't realize that only 1 out of those thousand kids that became famous actually get to live happily.

See what happened to the kids who acted in oscar winning

2. The glamor of crime, criminals and death.
CID is one of the most famous TV Serials to ever hit the indian T.V.
Over the years I have met thousands of people who tell me a common thing - " I watch CID Everyday, It has helped me become  an expert now in criminal psychology and human psychology."

Unfortunately that's like saying that porn movies teach you how to have satisfying sex...

From CID  now the every TV channel has one program focused on crime, murder, death...
While most people look at it with lot of interest, parents don't realize that constant exposure to such program infact triggers a brain to try and attempt the same.
Many of today's juvenile crimes are because the criminal tried to improve upon the ways shown on TV.


3. Magical thinking - instant gratification and instant power.
Books, Serials, Movies that promote instant gratification and instant power are the biggest hallucination a child's brain can be exposed to.
They suddenly remove the desire to work hard and achieve success.
They tell the child to try and achieve everything by easy means.
It's important to remember easy means are not always the best ways out.


BE CAREFUL ON WHAT YOU EXPOSE YOUR CHILD TOO...
IF YOUR CHILD HAS A HABIT TO LIE, STEAL, ROB, BECOME AGGRESSIVE OR IS INVOLVED IN ADDICTIONS/SEXUAL BEHAVIOR... CHECK THE MOVIES, TV SERIALS, BOOKS THAT HE/SHE HAS BEEN READING...
