This is a very unique & wonderful experience of life when we are parenting those who have parented us our entire childhood.
Parenting our own parents!
Childishness that happens at older age is absolutely normal when parents start demanding more of paternal care from their own children's.
Right from reminding their medicines, their spectacles on the head, the plays, the serials or TV shows time & of course answering their same questions several times & much more....
The most interesting thing that happen while this parenting is when we start listening willingly or unwillingly sometime to very very old songs say....flash back Gurudutt songs ....oh! Some songs those were sung when even our mom & dad were young waiting for each other..uff!
To the wonder time here reverses to such extent that with those whom we use to go holding hands while crossing the trafficked roads & to the gardens, playgrounds to play today we are holding their hands to make them cross the roads safely & they start staring us for their morning & evening walks......
Those were the days when we use to invite our friends at home just because our mom makes so tasty pakoda's & tasty evening snacks to let our friends know how pampered are we but now while parenting our own parents this gives a very new experience when our parents get their age mates just because they want them to know how caring & respectful their children's are or i must accept the truth by saying to let their age mates know that how they control their children's at this old age as well!! :-)
Their every single sneeze & every small pain puts us beside their bed sitting & doctoring, diagnosing & over that they would pretend to be more ill when it comes to spending some time specially to go out with us for a movie or their favourite events or to attend any family functions leaving us with no option other than taking a day off from office :-/ just as we pretended to have fever or stomach pain for taking a school leave to go to a circus in the city or zoo with them.
Truly speaking inspite of all, these are very special moments of lives for them as well as for us....Here we are experiencing something which they have gone through past so many years & on the contrary they are experiencing all those joys those we had with them since our childhood.
The pleasure of exchanging these experiences itself is a very pleasurable experience!
I believe the sense of responsibility & maturity that we gain while this parenting with all these practicalities is going to be very helpful for us our entire lives, specially when we are parents ourselves.
So, Let this experience be such joyous ...& seriously its really amazing feeling to be parent to our own parents :-)
Good night & Happy blogging!
