Amrita84 0 Report post Posted October 29, 2008 Hello all, I'm not sure if I am posting this in the right section, I'm new to this site, so I apologise now for any mistakes. I have been brought up as Hindu, though my family didn't practise strictly, its something I have recently started to take an interest in. From everything I have learnt so far, your parents are to be loved and respected just as much we love and respect God. I have no problem with this at all, its something I think children naturally do, but what when your parents are in the wrong? I'm not talking about when the stop a parent stops you from doing something, or grounds you as such, this is normal as parents have to dish out tough love to protect their children. But I mean when you know your parents behaviour/actions are wrong, and when we try to talk about it calmly at first but it ends up in a shouting match/argument? Should you just accept what your parents say/do or do something actively? I know it is easy to say that an argument can always be avoided, but this means both parties have to be willing to compromise, and this isn't the case unfortunately. What does hinduism have to say about this? Any response would be greatly appreciated Amrit Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
