the second hand kid

Well this post may concern many kids and may prove a journey down the memory lane for many ,for some else it would be a stab on there wounds..

Well…when a couple plans a family ,the obvious first thing they decide about together is a KID.The first kid of family is always special and shares a special bondage with everyone.The family always tries to give the best of whole world for the kid.The special attention and kindness rendered on kid is no doubt natural and overwhelming it throws a negative effect on the future generation to come.

Wen the couple has a second kid its mostly done accidently or else just as a matter of expansion of family,this proves to give a negative effect on the minds.Though no doubt the elder child is always the more matured one.None would disagree to fact that the second child always remains the second hand holder.

From the cram of the baby ,to the first bicycle he rides,to the school uniform,to books ,he sadly has to try and relish on the second handed items.The tragedy of society is that after all these sacrifices made,even then people think the younger ones to be immature fools.

There's lack of building up of individuality in younger ones.Always overburdened with the load of expectations due to the so called success story of the older sibling,the younger one not only has the pressure to do  good but also do better then or compete with the elder one.

And in return what does he get?well sadly to say.Nothing more then just a pat on back with yet again a second hand thing passed on in legacy.

Isn't the second kid not special?doesnt he deserve all that the older one got?

why is he to be always ladened by the burdens of expectations.

god knows what's right and wrong.

just hope the new year brings up an equality of status among two kids.

rather then the second being only a second hand kid..

  1. Well,
    on 'The second hand kid': Being the youngest in my family of four, I couldn't agree more with you (however, I have been much better off than what you've described). The younger sibling usually falls into the very subtle, but very deep, trap of following the footsteps of the older sibling.
    Realization and acceptance of this fact takes one out of it.
    I'm out!

    on 'Uncertainties of Life': Well, that day is still awaited when people will feel and get better just by reading inspirational stuff. Feeling and getting better comes from the heart, and inspirational stuff, that is words, tries to seduce the mind. It will never work!

    Anyways, isn't it weird at times when you find someone thinking on a frequency similar to yours ;) Yea, for me, it's the case here (I think, as of now).

    I think, you must be a big fan of Bob Dylan. If not, I think you should be. :)
    Keep awe-riting!

WHY BOYS HATE TWILIGHT AND GIRLS LOVE IT..

Well..frankly speaking i wasn't much into twilight till two years back when my best friend introduced me too it and i started reading it out of curiosity.being a romantic at heart i started being submerged completely in the fairy tale romance.Edward was the perfect man[though his a vampire and not a man] and Bella the idealized teen and Jacob the perfect teen with his sculpted body…the story had such a perfect description of ROMANCE,LOVE,DRAMA… Common yaar..as a girl who wouldn't want a romantic,faithful and dependable boyfriend as Edward.he started emerging as the idealized boyfriend material all over the world that any girl would want.and on other side there was Jacob the masculine sexual god figure.smart,sexy and tough on outside and tender and lovable inside.a person like him can make any hard girl drool to have him and want him.twilight opened up a whole world of imagination for girls like me.till now girls used to dream of prince charming on a white horse,while tw...

ARE YOU BEING JUDGED FOR BEING SINGLE?

If you are single, do you feel that you are judged for that reason alone? Do people make assumptions about you that they might not make if you were coupled? Do you think it is worse if you are single beyond the age at which people expect you to be married? To be stereotyped is to be prejudged. Tell new acquaintances you are single and often, they will think they already know quite a lot about you. They understand your emotions: You are miserable and lonely and envious of couples. They know what motivates you: More than anything else in the world, you want to become coupled. If you are a single person of a certain age, they also know why you are not coupled: You are commitment-phobic, or too picky, or you have baggage. Or maybe they figure you are gay and they think that’s a problem, too.             They also believe they know something about your psychological development and your psyche: You are just not as mature as the other p...

Non feminist ideas of the mind of a Feminist

I believe in feminism and I identify as a feminist, but sometimes when confronted with some of feminism's ideals, especially when it comes to relationships with men, all I can think is “blah, blah, blah.” Some schools of feminism condescendingly pat those that favor “traditional” values on the head (“there there, yes, your ideals are valid!”) and then snigger behind their backs because clearly, no self-possessed woman with her wits about her could possibly ever need anything from a man! No! We are independent ladies now! Rubbish. Sometimes, relationships and the things we need and want from each other aren’t as subversive as some schools of feminism would have us believe. Not everything is designed to beef up the patriarchy and undermine equality. I, for one, definitely want the man I’m with to possess certain qualities that make some people go “But you’re a feminist!” Yep, I’m a feminist, and sometimes–For A Change!–I’d like to be taken care of by a man. Aside from the regular...
