“How can you send your daughter to the
shop at this late hours?” said a man, the time was 7.30 P.M. The father of the girl
replied, “My daughter is strong emotionally if any Roadside Romeo acts too
smart she knows how to behave.”
The father of the girl had empowered his
daughter with courage and had encouraged her to feel powerful from within. This
is what every parent has to induce in their young daughters. There is a lot of
emphasis on empowering women economically and socially which is good but
before that in the family level a young girl has to be emotionally empowered.
We have often observed that the family tends to condition a girl child
differently as compared to a boy. While the boy is given a free hand to choose
the young girl is not allowed, it will be her mother who will be acting on her behalf. Not
that it is not right, but even the young girl has to have her say also. In some
families she is not entertained to take part in the family discussion fearing
that she may become too argumentative or vociferous. If this was true even the
boys in the house would be so.
Emotionally empowered young girls are in
control of themselves and do not fall prey to emotional traps. They know how to
uphold their self-esteem and have an ear to the inner voice. When emotionally
empowered no one can deceive a young girl with rosy words or fancy goods. She
will know who she is, what she feels, most importantly, she will understand
from where she is experiencing the feelings. Is it from her head or heart? There are many who take
advantages when they know a girl has emotional flow only from her heart.
If a young girl is emotionally empowered
she will never shy away from conflict and become silent instead she will raise
her voice without looking for others to support her or show sympathy to her.
This is a quality that is and should be a must for every girl to say she is
equal in all respects to a man. She will never regard some the past unfortunate
experiences and become timid alternatively she will try to see that the
unfortunate incidence will never happen to her or her tribe again. There will
be no misuse or abuse by her male counterparts.
This does not stop there an emotionally
empowered young girl goes on to become a strong mother who can take up the
responsibility of the kid and the family. She will not deter from her duty as
mother and will be the guide to her children.
Now it is not the financial status which is haunting women any more it is the
social panic which is confronting her as a devil. To fight this evil menace she
has to be emotionally empowered. And more importantly if she is emotionally
empowered she will not let herself in such situations.
There are issues like pointing out the
disadvantages of women empowerment in the social as well as economical arena.
If as a young girl she is emotionally empowered by the parents she is moulded
right to fitting into any of the empowerment without misusing and
making a mess of herself.
I want my daughter to be Emotionally
Empowered ……Do you????
