RE: Teach Your Kids That They Have a Voice

in #life7 years ago (edited)

Amazing post! This is what i usually tell my mum. She has taught me manners, kindness n respect for others etc so much that i now that i have grown up feel like I have nothing in my life. Even in my work place I see i work hard in the office and people leave me their work also n go, one time I got mad n there the next day people are like alex is not intersted anymore in this company, and i am like when did i say that, i dont go around distributing my work to other people cuz i have more. And now a couple of months back that guy gets a hike! Wooww i just dont know what to say.. Its like i dont know to speak up. :( anyways do check my last post on motivation if you feel interested! https://steemit.com/life/@alexkoshy/the-world-is-full-of-people-who-could-be-and-should-be-but-are-not

I know that struggle so well! I didn't really learn to set healthy boundaries and use my voice until my late 20's. It can be a huge adjustment when we have had certain habits for so long. I remember someone telling me that people would treat me as well or as poorly as I allowed. That idea really changed my thinking about quite a few of my relationships.

Very true! I got to work on this! All this manners and politeness is not fetching me anything!
