Fear gives way to many health setbacks
Fear from our childhood is living with us. After some level we grow we remove the fear from us but in some cases the fear sticks with us till death.Actually fear is common in all human beings and so that even in Holy Bible the word "do not afraid' is applied in 365 places.
We should have some faith in us that some super power or God is in us to protect us from anything and through which we can overcome the fear in us.
But when children feared for anything, the parents should give them support in kind words but I am seeing many parents are telling them in a scolding way for not having fear on anything. In one house, I saw a girl child feared to go inside the house alone to fetch water from water can. Her father kindly took her inside and told there is nothing to fear and give courage to her. This is the right way.
Hear fear, I take up, not only the fear on dark etc., but when people got sick also they covered with fear that they got something which is not curable. So that they started to check their disease and the medicine prescribed by the doctor in computer whether they are correct. Some people check in the computer whether the doctor is ranked good etc., before consulting him.
So, the fear of this type as well all fear in general comes from the lack of 'belief'.
Recently in many places, parents, teachers and other elderly people are instructing the children especially female children about 'good touch and bad touch' which is good and needy one but the way of they teach them is nor correct. They made the children to have fear and their alert s so that they should not talk or sit even with father and other close relatives and in such cases they are sitting aloof in separate rooms which blackish their minds more and more.
