CHENNAI: Psychologists tell us to treat our children with respect to earn their respect. But this is something that is evident from our Puranas and Ithihasas, said Suki Sivam in a lecture. When Dasaratha banishes Lord Rama to the forest, Lakshmana loses his temper and says: “Taking the kingdom away from Rama and giving it to Bharata is like giving food that was intended for a lion to a mangy street dog.”

Later he tells Sumantra: “Ask Dasaratha how he is able to eat food after what he has done. Ask him how he manages to keep alive after what he has done to Rama.”

Lakshmana urges Rama to wrest the kingdom from Dasaratha. But Rama checks the angry Lakshmana and says: “Our father never used harsh words against me even once. He always used sweet words when he spoke to me. How can I take the kingdom myself when his wish is otherwise? Will I have any dignity left, if I do so?”

Thus though Rama was magnanimous in obeying His father's order, He does not fail to acknowledge his father's role . Dasaratha had never been harsh with Rama and thus earned His respect. Again in the episode of Lord Subrahmanya imprisoning Brahma and then Nandi, we notice the respect with which Lord Siva treated His son. When Nandi, who had been sent as a messenger by Siva is also imprisoned by Subrahmanya, Siva goes Himself to seek the release of both Brahma and Nandi.

He respectfully addresses Subrahmanya and requests that the two be released. Subrahmanya refuses to pay heed even to Siva. Siva then gets angry. But, Kachiappa Sivachariar, the author of Kanda Puranam, says Siva only pretended to be angry.

Thus, we have examples from our sacred literature that show that our ancestors followed practices in child rearing that child psychologists recommend these days. They treated their children with respect and thus earned the regard of their children.

Parents were ready to take words of advice from their children, if their children had something worthwhile to say.

Thus Subrahmanya taught His father Siva the significance of the Pranava mantra and earned for Himself the name of Swaminatha — the guru of Siva.
