Young girl of 20 years age, studying in Proffessional College. She is good in studies. In each sem she scoores above 80%. She doesn't have any bad manners. She is lacking her parent's affection and love. She doesn't like advise. Her parents wants her to help them at home. But she was lazy. Upto 17 years maid look after her so she never did any work at home. She doesn't know the importance of helping even in small work. Her parents are expecting her to help at home, to be brisk. Some time they are insulting in front of others. Always they are scolding. Now she hates their parent. She doen't want to live. She stops going to college. Will any one tell how to solve this? How parents should treat her? How to council her? Please give spiritual answers.

This particular situation is very unfortunate. My advice on how to counsel her would be to sit her down and write down the good things about herself. Don't just think of a few things i mean really sit and think about everything that she has accomplished in life so far. Tell her to put that list somewhere that she will see it everyday, so when she is feeling down she can always look at the list of great things. This girl seems very bright and should not have to drop out of school because of her parents. She should talk to her parents face to face and explain to them how she is feeling. If they do not understand then maybe she needs to cut off all contact with them for awhile and focus on herself. If she gets too stressed out then suggest meditation. It's very calming and helps you focus. Also try yoga or deep breathing exercises. I cannot offer very much spiritual advice because i'm not sure what her spiritual preference is. I hope i was of some help. Best of luck to this girl.
