TEXT ONE [1] All children need attention, but there are some who demand it much more forcefully than others. Both with their peers and parents or carers, they will insist they get their way. They readily infuriate other kids by laying down rules that everyone else is supposed to follow. Oblivious of the irritation they cause others, they are quick to lose their temper if other children don’t fall into line with their demands. When parents intervene to Set reasonable limits, the overly demanding child quickly becomes agitated and angry [2] This exaggerated sense of entitlement may spring from an early experience of being wounded - an experience that destroys an earlier sense of security and arouses feelings that the child cannot cope with. One trigger might be the birth of a younger brother or sister, leaving the older child feeling neglected or abandoned. Other potentially wounding experiences include a mother’s retum to work, moving to anew town, yparenis’ rows or the child being left for long periods of time in day care. Each of these could initiate a sense of Joss accompanied by an emotional arousal that the child can’t handle. {3} The type of child in question is one with a predisposition to react aggressively when it docs n0t receive what it has come to expect. When the child’s expectations are not met, an initial sense of hurt i& immediately replaced by a feeling of anger and the child has a tantrum. [4] Child therapists have a saying: Trust the wisdom of the chitd. Children have temper tantrums for@ reason. The angry behaviour sends out a signal that the child needs something different from what it is being given, However, it is important not to fake the behaviour at face valve. The child may be screaming 0 bought a new toy, but these explicit demands may only be the beginning of the story — in other words, thet may conceal as much as they reveal. What the child might really need is neither the toy nor getting his 0W” way, but reassurance, The child may have Ue deeper and more urgent need to be reassured that it still has th parents’ unconditional love.

We admire better hygiene and better traffic discipline abroad, but would breach the same back home at the first instance. We condemn our system for chuming, Ul unemployed youths, but we don’t like working hard to acquire knowledge. There have rather been fnlimerous instances where students have demanded their right to cheat in an examination. It is the same discards that later become a burden as they {ail to acquire a skill for employment prospects. Rights are forcefully demanded, but duties are detested. [2] As citizens of » functioning democracy, we like populist policies and government bounties. Free electricity, free Wi-Fi, free water, free books, free housing, free transport, free health facilities and fee education are some of the things we always desire the state to be providing its citizens with and we take them for granted. One does not mind as long as they are provided to the deserving sections of society, Dut the problem starts when undeserving seuments try (o comer these benefits through devious means. The benefits that are provided by the government are offen not used in a responsible manner.

We under-report our income and consequently underpay our taxes, but we resent it when the government complains of a Tesource crunch to provide for the basic amenities. Digging the road for a private purpose, piling building materials, tapping water sources or electricity are a common sight in this country, but the same people would complain of congested roads, contaminated water or load-shedding without realizing that it is their ‘Selfish actions which are affecting the qualities of many of these services.

While you pay a hefty $1000 fine for ditering in a developed country or for a traffic violation, you can get away without any penalty in India through various ‘desi jugad’ (influence-peddling). Sometimes, the systemic imperfections also hamstring the functioning of the rile of law in this country as the law-abiding citizens do not always get their rightful dues. Today, hundreds of thousands of applications for a fire security certificate or a building plan are allegedly pending in different goverment offices for years, unless you decide to pass on the speed money to those in the gravy train.
