Spoil your kids, please
Your children are not your children.
They are the sons and daughters of life’s longing for itself;
They come through you but not from you.
You may give them your love but not your thoughts,
For, they have their own thoughts.
You may house their bodies but not their souls,
For their souls lie in the house of tomorrow,
Which you cannot visit,
Not even in your dreams!
If you reached here after reading the quote, I appreciate your patience 
I read the above lines in Hindu’s Open page. For a moment, it stuck like a lightning. Kahlil Gibran has given straight forward opinion for the parents and students who are victims of the current educational system (Including me).
Taare Zameen Par expressed how parents attribute everything with success. Things are forced upon them or rather they are made to think that what their parents think is the best choice, forcing the kid do what the parent failed to do as a kid, forcing them to walk exactly on their footpath and a lot more.
Being first in rat race may be appreciated by other rats, but what matters is how the person relates the success .
Being able to do is different from wanting to do. Do what you want to do, and show middle finger for the rest.
