Dad !! Your son is a man now...

William Wordsworth once said “ Child is the father of the man”.
Well when does a child becomes a man… I guess in parent’s eyes, never…but I guess it really happens over a period of time when this boy stands on his own feet… start looking at this world from his own eyes… It must be really difficult for a father to come to reality that suddenly his son is starting to have an opinion of his own… on politics, money, household matters, relationships, friends, career n everything… n that too most of the times contradicting than his own…But somehow both are adamant about everything.. Father who has lived all his life very successfully and built his family on certain principles and son who is a 21st generation guy ready to step into this competitive world and somehow doesn’t believe in many of these principles…From teaching him everything from riding a scooter to innumerable mathematics sessions to how to build and maintain relationships with ur relatives.. he has taught him everything right from his childhood… But today there are some differences of opinion trying to tell him “Dad, your son is a man now”…
Ever wondered why does this happen? What lead to the christening of the word “Generation Gap”? Why the principles on which a father believes in doesn’t hold good for his son? I guess the debate will go on… They say that only thing constant is change… People change.. Situations change n even principles change... What matters the most is how much both of them are ready to adapt to the present situation...Is the son ready to take a one step back for his father?
But u know what inspite of a little niggles this person is still this boy’s best friend.. A friend he can still rely on in any difficulty.. A friend that has taught him everything.. A friend who is his Father…n a Father who is his best friend forever…
