“He who has no children knows how to educate them”

I found the proverb in the title somewhere on a page while looking for the latest news and I felt much too guilty of this “sin” to be silent and not share it with you.

 

I’m not a mother and I still have some time until then. However, there are a lot of families around me who have children … and I’m not necessarily talking about babies, children, but teenagers my age, even adults … because in the end we are all children all our lives .

 

How many times have I not looked at the mistakes of the people around me and judged their parents, that they did wrong this thing and this attitude … and in myself how many times I did not brag that I would do well and that I am lucky to learn from the mistakes I see around me. The truth is that from my level everything seemed very easy, that everything could be solved simply if the parents knew how to take action at the right time.

 

The truth, in fact, is this: I have no right to judge anyone. I have no idea what a parent feels about his child, about all the love he has to bear, about the hardships and sufferings he has to face to form the “big man”. I have no idea how a mother’s soul softens when her child has a problem and I have no idea how a child is formed, how it reacts.

 

 

 

We are all philosophers until proven otherwise, we all have opinions to share, we all know everything … or not? However, we had better assume that there is no perfect man and understand that maybe our point of view and the way we act may not always be appropriate, maybe there are people who have more to say in certain circumstances … maybe that’s how we’d change things for the better … by stopping judging.
