It is often told by elders that the children shall obey elders. It is common, we hear these words from school/religious teachers. Is it true that children should obey elders or is there any truth in these words of obedience to the elders. The words of these obedience gets extended as to the words of duty to elders, in the long run when the children grows further older or say become young to stand on their own.

Is there any correctness or truth in the context of “freedom”.

A man is born free. In its true sense he is born free to enjoy his life without affecting the freedom of nature as others enjoys.

A parent chooses to have children and not the children choose to have parents. A parent who choose to have children is the law of nature, is bound by the duty to feed and grow the children to see the children is grown to have free life. However the elders keeps on teaching the children right from the beginning that they do lot to their children and the children has a duty towards the parents. The knowledge of man made him selfish even to himself. In the process the man robs the freedom of children and looses him too.
