India received freedom in 1957, but are we enjoying our rights? Few teenagers would say no while the other few would say yes. According to our Indian law, every individual has their own rights, and the government or any individual has no right to interfere. But is this true? Undoubtedly the government has no objections to any individual's right but when it comes to love marriage do the parents of every teenager follow the same? The answer is absolute no. The parents who are educated and are born and brought up in urban areas with modern values will never have objections to love marriages but on the other hand, parents who belong from some small village or to be specific from rural areas will have objections to inter-caste and inter-religion marriages. Some parents will have issues with love marriages let it be inter-caste or not. Orthodox values are considered very important for people who grew up in joint families or rural areas, they believe in following what their parents taught them and expect the same from today's generation as well. Is this right? Isn't it interfering in their rights? There can be 2 answers to this question. Talking on behalf of all the parents - they have the right because they gave birth to that individual and they are the one who taught them good moral values, gave education, supported them in their thick and thin times and return what they expect is a little gesture of love from the kids which is that “they will continue their life with a person they choose”. This particular sentence means the world to them. I don't completely agree or disagree, because parents would never choose the worst for their little ones, they would never want to ruin their life neither do they want their kids to have any events in their life that would be depressing. Now talking on behalf of my generation, the best thing parents could do is trust their parenting and the values they gave. Why on earth would any person choose an individual who will destroy their life? Why do parents always have to think that they can choose the best? Undoubtedly yes they can, but we can too! The best thing both generations can do is try to understand each other and talk to each other regarding their feelings.
TIP FOR PARENTS: - They should trust their kids, their choices, support them, and try to rectify them do not force them. Let them learn from their mistakes.
TIP FOR TEENAGERS: - They should try to understand parent's feelings, try to listen to them because they will never do anything to upset their loved ones. Try to fight for your love but do not fight with your parents for that love.
