End of school life - the golden era of life
Father's Mess is the most enjoyable time of life
While going to appear his exam today, he was saying, I will not have to wear this school dress again - it's not very comfortable. I was thinking in the background - the era of comfort is about to end soon....Kid, you don't know yet what's coming in your way.
Finally his secondary school exam is over today, making the mark of a big change in life - end of school days. School times are the most enjoyable time of life, which we realize only after we face the real challenges of life, demanding more responsibility and accountability. I keep saying my favorite sentence - Father's Mess is the most enjoyable time of life - the best stress free period of life - no tension of why, how and what it takes for the Parents to make sure everything is ready before being asked. Parents have the tough task of teaching important values like honesty, integrity, and respect for others, over this long period of life without even the kid realizing - these values just gets into their blood spontaneously, creating lasting memories forever, which we realize only after their absence. In our time, parents possibly had less challenge to deal with us, because of simple living. There were challenges for our Parents, but I have never seen my Dad being stressed for us. He never even went to my school once or inquire why I was doing what - the result was probably the one thing he liked to hear once in a year. Compare that to us - we are very intensely involved with every activity of our kids, because we realize the cultural shift in the generation change.
First forward to twentieth century - these kids have every information in their finger tips which can spoil them fast, if not safeguarded. They are very knowledgeable and responsible, but at the same time they are very vulnerable to emotional break down quickly - and that is when, they look forward to us. Otherwise, most of the time they think, we don't know many things - typical nineteenth century guys.
So from here, he will have to face the real challenges of life - deciding what career to choose, that he will have to enjoy for the rest of his life. Even though every parent wants their kid to live their passion, it's not easy to have a very rewarding passion that fulfills the life's need. So they will have to pick a choice which will be mostly decided by their work. We have never kept high expectation from our kids as that will increase their stress level, making them more anxious which is very dangerous. Rather we guide them to live every moment of life, seek divine blessings to deal with their anxiety - Science and Technology does not have answer for everything. We will always stand beside them when they need us most - I am sure our patience and guidance will be the most valuable asset for them - a reality which they will realize only after they become Parent.
And before I wrap this emotional post I must tell you the fun - the last exam of today was on Painting - possibly the CBSE board wanted these kids to deal with less stress towards the end. These paintings that you see as part of this post were submitted to the school for practical - minimum twenty paintings were needed and the outcome from the kid was not bad. The lady provided some helping hand in some of these but I could never do a painting in my whole life and compared to that, he has better skill.
Living a simple life at a place like the one in the above painting is what we consider Luxury now - they have a different definition - matter of time. For sure, this post will be a lovely memoir for him - may be he can show to his kids.

Sir, you are absolutely right. In the earlier era, parents were not so serious about their children's studies. They used to ask only one day when the result was out and say pass or fail. But nowadays parents monitor every activity of the child due to the change in our society and culture which has left a deep impact on our generation. If parents do not do this, children do not pay proper attention to education and at the same time they are victims of social evils. More School Life Children learn a lot if they are given proper attention till school life then the next step becomes easy for them. I pray that Allah bless your child with success. The paintings are very attractive and beautiful.

Thank you so much.
High school is one of the most enjoyable times in our lives. The friendships formed there last a long time. He graduated from high school and a difficult process awaits him.
All of the pictures are impressive, he is talented in painting.
Ya, much better than expected.
Sir first of all best wishes to your kid for entering in the practical life.
The most beautiful sentence of this post is
Being a father I can understand your feelings sir but as a father after putting our hundred percent we should leave the result on God. I think parenting is a very challenging task. We have to tackle our children very wisely. We should have a friendly relationship with our children. If we don't listen them, they will find someone else who listen their problems.
By the way his painting skill is awesome. I like his paintings.

Yes, he did not realize to do this good, as he stopped doing painting long back. And well said, we have to be friendly with him.
As I have passed my 12th last year and yupp it's quite difficult to choose what u do but after then I get into stock market and now I have joined my father's sarees wholesale business. It's hard to decide what to do.
Yes, the most difficult part of life and not regret and live with that for entire life.

Yes, we're all under that illusion when we leave school!
Your son's artwork is very good indeed, he certainly has talent there.
It's always great seeing what a proud father and husband you are, congratulations with guiding your son, wishing him a bright future!
Thank you so much, these blessings will matter a lot.
True luxury is a simple life, where nature and memories bring real happiness. This place will be a treasure to remember. I love those drawings too, it made me remember my younger days too when I cry to my parents for crayons to paint😆. But they are now memories.
Yes, the whole post is meant to be a memoir for him.
Yeah thats right
Many years ago, I felt what your child felt. I thought freedom begins when I stop wearing that school uniform and I can be free but adulthood hit me so hard that many times, I want to go back to being dependent on my parents
Is university in the cards for him? Congrats to him for this great accomplishment. I still remember graduating from high school and how much of a shift it was attending university classes.
He wants to do a B.Tech. in Computer Science or AI, but the competition is tough. So let's see where he lands..
I wish him the best of luck!
Thank you so much.

Los tiempos cambian y pronto los chicos estudiarán en línea ni siquiera irán presencial
That will be even more difficult - living a fully virtual life will be a disaster.
Es lo que viene , más aún con el uso de la IA
Every father always tries to do the best for his children and after all these efforts, the final result is given by Allah Almighty. Keep up the hard work. On this occasion, many congratulations to you that your children have entered practical life and Insha Allah, they will prove to be a source of comfort for you. Very good post.
Life advances more quickly, yet school days seem to drag on forever. Only when actual obligations and difficulties start to arise do we see their worth.
This is so true, everyone is happy to end school and they don't even know what's coming up next, they will regret school times so much! All easy, no stress no worries, I miss those times
This made me smile, he doesn't really know.
You are an awesome dad👍. I love all his drawings they are beautiful, he is really skilled
I’m sure your child had great high school memories
I’m happy that he’s moving onto the next level. It keeps getting better even though it may not be easy…
Sir! It is a very good and wonderful post. The most memorable part of our life is school life. I remember the time spent in school all my life.
It is true that it is another stage that helps you move forward in life, but you are absolutely right. Afterwards, with the passage of time, you will realize how good that stage is and you will want to return to it.
Always the best wishes for your son friend in this stage that ends and in that other one that is just beginning, it is a good idea not to stress them so much for their last exam and to be able to show and recognize the simplest and happiest things for everyone with drawings.

I wish him best of luck.
Painting, now that was a great last exam! Good luck in his next endeavours.
First of all, congratulations on your son's achievement and finishing high school. As you say, this path is just beginning, so more responsibilities will come.

I agree! You will only realize when you get older, and responsibilities begin to pile up.
I noticed this from kids in our country. The huge difference from my generation (millennial, Gen Y) is very different from Gen Z.
His picture just made me remember the wonderful memories I had when in high school also. Such an amazing moment
By the way the drawing are also beautiful
School life is the best and most comfortable....
Lots of good wishes to your son for the next stage of the life 👍
Thank you so much.
Welcome 😀😀
