parenthood

What does it mean to have children? Do you own your children or do they own you? One keeps working most of the time to support his family turning down many life paths coz he dont wanna waste his money or to secure the family. He keeps banking the money and keep working and banking and banking. When your child is young and he asks for something be it a toy or clothes or a bicycle you imediatly go and buy it for him. You sort your life in favour of the child and feel great about your fatherhood. Then when you son/daughter graw up to teenage and they wanna do something you dont accept u just shout/yell and refuse it and probably you'll say "your living under my roof and as long as you do, it gonna be my way and not yours" when your son makes a big mistake (from your point of view) you beat him shamlessly thinking that its your right to do so since he's your son! What does the words "my son" mean? does it mean you own him and thus your free to do as you wish does that give you the right to choose his life? just coz we pay the expence of his food/clothes/education does this gives us the right to run/controle thier lives? And if parents think so, why? coz they faild in thier own lives (deep inside them) and they want to re-create thier lives in thier children? How would you raise your children? i see this a silly question, why do you think yourself as god over your children? why dont you give them the right to choose what they want, what they wanna do with thier own lives? Yet its true a baby cant take care of himself and needs his parents in his early stages of his/her life and i think thats the only time you have control you only got 16-18 years to play your game. And if you play wrongly, its is your child will suffer the rest of his/her life.
