Art of Parenting

Art of Parenting is a perfect Parallel to Ceiling Fan Rotation Direction!! Learn from the Fan! Read this Interesting Perspective!!
Dear Parents and Children
This was a puzzle I had for many years! Why does Fan rotate counterclockwise in India, whereas it rotates clockwise in the USA or any other cold country?

After many years, I came to know that in hot places or in summer conditions, the blades should turn counterclockwise to create a breeze effect by moving or circulating the air better during hot weather.

In cold places or winter conditions, the blades should turn clockwise to circulate warm air. It should run at low speed so that it gently draws the room air up towards the ceiling and forces the warm air down and out towards the walls avoiding giving you the wind chill effect.

This science helps parents and children in many ways!

Thanks to globalization, the aspirations of the world are flowing flat. Children of a particular region emulate the children of another region. Every region and space has a certain set of opportunities and constraints. Food is different. Education is different. Games are different. Culture is different. Weather conditions are different. So as Aspirations. Parenting styles should be different.

No two places cannot be mixed, nor opportunities.  The rhythm developed in a particular region cannot be copied to another place. We cannot develop parallels between 2 regions. No single place is great nor inferior. They have their own advantages and disadvantages. Except for cost and comfort, the rest of the life is the same between Antarctica to Australia.

When we miss this fundamental philosophy, we grossly miss the purpose. Of course, personally, I need to learn a lot from this great example. No parent is perfect till they prove their kids settled and raised for 40 years!! It means the Parenting Process lasts for 40 years!! True. We raised it perfectly. What if they are misutilized after 20 years? It again bounces back to parents. Hence, No parent is successful till children teach their values to their children!!  Hence, all parents are successful in the best raising of their grandchildren.

Similarly, children should see their parents as ceiling fans. When you are in a heated condition, parents provide you with the best cooling effect. When you are in cool condition, parents provide you with a warm environment in terms of inducing goals, competitiveness, acting tough, and purpose to their life. If children cannot understand this simple logic and misunderstand their parents, the air becomes reversed in every season!! Throughout your life, you will repent. You don’t have answers for your children. You end-up repenting in your last life!!

Wish this year Brings Conditioned Air for the Children and they appreciate Parents for their relentless rotations!!

Wish this year to teach the Parents how to produce the best-conditioned air for their children in every season possible!!

By the way, many ceiling fans have a switch that lets you change the direction of the blades so they rotate clockwise or counter-clockwise (some fan manufacturers label this “forward” and “reverse” respectively). So as Art of Parenting!! Parents are also becoming smart!!

Happy Air in 2022!!!
Your Well-wisher
