‘The Tyranny of Parents’

Vinod Ekbote watches parents making fools of themselves at the poolside as they watch their children learn to swim. If only it stopped at them flailing their hands, though…

the day before yesterday I saw a young mother slap her 9-10 year old daughter who was afraid to venture into the pool. It was something that made me very sad. Beating your kid in front of others is something a parent should never do. It is the worst sort of humiliation one can mete out to your kid. It filled me with horror, shame and embarrassment, watching the poor kid plead with her mother not to force her to enter the pool.
