Do parents really deserve this?
Today I read somewhere that, "A mother can raise her seven children alone, but seven children together, can't raise their single mother." And this break my heart into pieces, no one can pay back the boundless love of Parents, who work hard to raise their children, and to give them bright future.
A mother keep her child in her belly for nine months, and sacrifice her whole life to provide his needs. A father, never cares for day or night, hot or cold, and go out to earn living for his children. They always stand strong in front of every hardship, which reach to their child, and taught him/her to walk and speak. In short, their only purpose after being parent is the well being of their children, for which they do their best.
They deserve the same kindness and love they showered on us in our childhood. But, the truth is that, if we spend our life to take care of them, we can't pay back even for a single night, as their love was pure and boundless, which is irreplaceable. But still we should do our best to keep them in good position, at this stage of their life, when they haven't the same energy of young age. But sadly so many of us behave badly with our parents, and never gave them the honour and respect they deserve.
A couple live near my area, who had seven sons, and the husband was the only supporter of the family. He was a worker in the factory, so you can understand how difficult it would be for him to provide his family needs. But, he never cared for day and night, and gave his children a bright future.
But now they all are married, and their parents were in old oge, so they were needed the support of their children. But, they all were shifted to the separate homes with their wives, and parents were living with their youngest son, who was also married. After few months, the youngest child gathered his brothers, and asked them to took the responsibility of the parents as he alone can't afford to provide their needs.
His father took this to heart, and soon he was died. Now only the mother was living with him, but still it was hard for his wife to bear her mother in law, so she asked her husband to talk to his brothers, to also took her responsibility. So, the mother was sent to the other son, but after sometime, his wife also asked him to transfer her to the house of other son. She also behaved badly with her mother-in-law, and humiliate her in bad way.
In short, no one was agreed to keep her for whole life, and she was forced to move from one place to another. This was hurting for her, as she and her husband, manage with great difficulty to raise their seven sons, but none of them was agreed to keep her alone. Few days ago, she also died with heart attack.
I was sad to hear about her death, and miserable life she and her husband passed throughout the years, in spite of having seven children. May they both rest in peace, and Almighty give them highest rank in JINNAH. Ameen.
Do parents really deserve this? Are not they have any emotions, or feelings? Are not they are the responsibility of their children? How would you behave with your parents, if they reach at this age? Share your views.
Thanks for reading.
Here are my lovely sponsors, go and read their amazing articles. I am sure you would be glad to read their incredible work. I am grateful to them for believing me.
Based on what I saw with my parents and the rest of her siblings, I really admire them. My lolo's condition is getting worse and they actually volunteer to help and be the one who take good care of him.
