Uttarakhand Police shared a video, in which a baby monkey returns the phone on the signal of its mother. This incident teaches that children follow the behavior of elders, not their teachings. The conduct of parents is the biggest lesson for children.
Hundreds of videos go viral every day on social media. But there are some videos which leave a deep impression on our hearts and teach a big lesson of life. Recently, Uttarakhand Police has shared one such unique video on its official social media account. This beautiful clip of the animal world is giving a very strong message to humans, especially parents, about “how children should be raised”.
What is there in the video?
This incident happened at a tourist spot in the beautiful hilly area of Uttarakhand. In the video, a baby monkey is sitting holding a tourist’s mobile phone in his hand. Generally, if monkeys snatch something, it is very difficult to get it back. But something else happened here. His mother, sitting near the child, just gave him a small gesture to return the phone. As soon as the monkey understood the mother’s signal, he politely put down the phone without insisting or disturbing anyone.
Uttarakhand Police’s advice to parents
While sharing this video, Uttarakhand Police has written a very deep statement: “Children learn not from our words, but from our behavior.” This means that it is better to explain a hundred things to children than how we behave in front of them. How parents talk to elders at home, how they keep the house clean, or whether they help people in trouble, children keep a close eye on all these things. Whatever we do, children also follow the same.

We can make some easy changes in our lifestyle to give the right shape to the personality of children.
Discipline and Respect: If we respect the elders and guests at home, children will also learn this automatically.
Use of phone: If parents themselves remain busy on the phone throughout the day and ask their children not to use the phone, it will have no effect. If we develop the habit of reading books or playing, children will also learn by watching us.
Responsibility: Involving children in small household chores and giving them small responsibilities increases their self-confidence.
Apologize: If we commit a mistake and we apologize in front of our children, then they too get the courage to admit their mistake.
This video of mother and child proves that even animals in nature teach life lessons to children through their behavior. Parents are the first ‘role models’ for their children. If we ourselves become cultured, our children will also become cultured. This video shared by Uttarakhand Police is an eye-opening news for the parents of today’s digital age.
