10 Times Parents Were Hypocritical Without Even Realizing

Parenting

Parents love their children to the moon and would literally do anything for them. As a parent, you want to provide your child with the best possible life, so you must go through a very challenging process of upbringing your little one. It is the make or break. You basically put your kid in a position where it can decide what personality it wants to take on for the rest of his/her life. That decision would depend entirely on the upbringing.

I agree that parenting is about providing your child with all the love you want, something I just mentioned above, but in the process, parents often showcase a bit of hypocrisy which has been seen passed down through generations and I am sure the torch will kept being passed on forever and ever. I call this behavior hypocritical in the eyes of the children because it puts them under the impression that their parents are allowed to do whatever they want, but their children are not. It’s like a “if you can do it, why can’t I” kind of question if you think of it that way.

So, let’s not wait any further and go through these 10 hypocritical behaviors seen exhibited by parents during the overall parenting process. Scroll down below to enjoy!

1. Why do we see our parents eat food whenever they want but we only get it at fixed time slots?

The hypocritical behaviors of our parents have been presented in the form of questions from children to make the understanding better and clearer for everyone. And when you read them, it really makes you go “Oh, yes! This really is something very hypocritical that our parents have been doing.”

I really hope you absorb the lightness in this as well. The idea is to just cherish the whole process of parenting…this funny hypocrisy is a part of it.

6. Why am I demanded to share everything with but when I ask your secrets you always change the topic?

10. So I should always express my thoughts freely without any fear but at the same time you say “I fear public opinion.” I don’t see how this will work for me.
