Parents in the new millenium

A colleague juz got married recently and almost immediately got preggy. Ok... happy for her but why muz she change after getting married? She's an independant, opiniated girl and apparently, having a husband turns her into jelly. Not just any jelly, those jiggly, sticky, melty jelly that you just wish that you can throw in the bin.

Now that she's preggy, every little conversation is abt her pregnancy. EVERY LITTLE THING is associated to her pregnancy. From conception to plastic bags to the magotty macs curry sauce. Even the year end dinner is associated to her pregnancy. What is happening to the world? Is life all abt marriage and procreation?

She's not the only one. I've encountered many. Worse, they not only become dependant on their OH, they became dependant on ME!!! OMG so rimas. In fact, the became clingy to everyone ard them. Anyone is their hanger to hang their lifeless, motionless body.

It got me to think.... maybe that's how marriages work. Since men crave for power.... clingy women are their daily staple. PUH-Leezzz. But then again... ying and yang... the world works in balances.... might never know

Brings me back to the topic in hand. The new millenium parents. Got an article from another colleague on Raising Children of Character. Got me thinking of the parents that I encounter with day in day out. Not just at work, wherever I go.

It's apparently easy to breed. I'm using breed because it's physical... Just need to mate and conceive and give birth. THAT my friend, is the easy part.

Parents nowadays think like animals. Animals babies need to suckle for a few months and will be on their own. It's little wonder why kids nowadays behave worse than animals. Humans are not built like animals, we do not have the survival skills nor the physical abilities to self teach.

Kids left on their own with the hi-tech toys and television to teach them. No parental supervision at all. No parental interaction. Nothing. Left all upbringing to the maids and left all education to the school. Later, leave all punishments and discipline to the police.

It's sad how parents turn out this way. Applies to both rich and poor parents.

Those who think they are doing the right thing are the worse kind of parents. Too arrogant to admit that they are wrong and bring up arrogant kids.

I'm too upset to finish up this blog. Maybe next time...
