Dear Parents,
I hope all of you are keeping well. Today I decided to pen a letter to all of you. I am trying to represent your kids and myself. Parents, even if we seem mean know one thing we love you more than we can show. The last time you scolded us, we were angry but we knew you did it for our betterment. But, what hurts is you didn't talk to us about it. You know most of us are going through the darkest phase. We want you to hug us, to listen to us but not pass your judgments. We want you to help us when we are,
ghosted by people
when we don't have any friends,
when the guy/girl whom we loved cheated on us or broke our heart
when we are losing someone
You came on this planet before us. We know you have seen more than us, that's why we want you to hold our hands. You taught us to walk, to eat and what not. Please hold our hands once again. You remember when as a kid we did something bad, you didn't judge us or scold us. You held our hands and made us walk out through it.
Please once again, assume us to be a kid and forgive us for all the mistakes we have done and you didn't knew. Become the light to the darkness of our life. We know you want the best for us and we want the same. But right now all our thoughts have become blurry and we don't know what's ahead of us. We are lost, broken and on the verge of crying. Show us how to walk out of this. We are sure you too had same experience. Generation gap exists but let's blur it a bit. Let's talk, we have so much that we are crumbling under its weight. We are running out of solutions but running into problems.
Many of us are experiencing a havoc in our head and we want you to calm this blunder. This world is lonely. That's why we want to hold your hands and feel less lonely. We have lost a lot and we know you too have bad days and even you want someone to talk to. Maybe we aren't mature enough to solve your problems but we can talk to you. Parents let's talk heart to heart so that next time we are in a problem we remember you before anyone. So that the first thought about you, when we do something wrong is not how will you bust us, but how you can solve it.
I know even we aren't model kids. But please we are your kids and we want you to hold our hands because life is slipping away and we are standing like a spectator. Hold us so even if we fall we have the power to get up. We don't want to fight with you. We want your love, you and heart to heart talks. We want you to be the part of our solutions and not problems.
Please don't compare us, because just imagine if we started comparing you to our friends parent. Some of us have done this and we know you don't enjoy it. Similarly we don't. So let's stop comparing instead let's just help the person to grow. One more thing, you have a partner to listen to you life issues. But we don't have anyone, so please listen to us without any judgment even if it means that we have done something very bad. Because if you judge us there won't be any difference between you and the society. Also when we commit a mistake don't tell us that we have brought down your name in the society or what will others think but instead tell us how it will affect us. Don't step on our dreams because if you do so, we will feel we have not been a good decision maker. We know we are related to you genetically and biologically but that nowhere means we can have the same thinking. You know we love you and we know you do the same. That's why we write this letter to you. So that you know we want to talk to you and set a new history where parents and kids are on the same note.
Parents hopefully you will read our letter and understand us. We look forward to have talks with you. We never want you to be perfect, because there is nothing known as perfect. Each human being is the best version of himself or herself and we know you too are. Remember we love you and by this letter we just want you to know what each of us feels.
Always and forever
Your kid
