In folk spirituality, it is believed that the bond between children and parents is formed from a past life. If the connection is positive, the children are a blessing, bringing joy and good fortune to their parents. On the other hand, children who come to collect on a debt can cause their parents exhaustion and sorrow.
However, whether they are here to repay a debt or collect on one, all children must be nurtured with love. For those who bring joy, love strengthens the positive bond, fostering continued happiness. For those who come with a debt, love is the key to resolving it, helping the child grow into a better person and bringing peace to the parents.
If your child possesses the following traits, congratulations! They are a blessing to you:

Healthy, playful children bring joy to their parents
They eat and sleep well, making them easy to care for
Raising a child is more challenging than caring for an adult. Eating and sleeping are crucial for a child’s development, and when a child eats and sleeps well, it is a cause for celebration. It means the child is growing well, and parents can rest easy. Conversely, when a child struggles with eating and sleeping, it often indicates poor health, leading to constant crying and exhaustion for both the child and the parents.
Many parents find themselves drained and sleep-deprived due to their child’s sleep patterns. A child’s eating and sleeping habits can also cause tension in the family. Therefore, having a child who eats and sleeps well is a true blessing.
They enjoy robust health and rarely fall ill
“Health is wealth.” When a child is healthy and growing strong, their parents’ well-being often improves too. Conversely, when a child is frequently ill, it can take a toll on the parents’ health and even lead to financial sacrifices as they may need to take time off work or make expensive medical trips. A child’s illness can also strain family relationships. No parent wants their child to be sick, not just because of the financial burden but also because of the emotional toll and the potential disruption to their own careers. So, having a child with robust health is a true blessing for the entire family.

A healthy child allows parents to focus on their work and not worry constantly
They rarely cry and are generally cheerful
A cheerful and active child brings positive energy to the family. On the other hand, a constantly crying and irritable child can be draining for those around them. A child’s smile can change the atmosphere in the family, improve relationships between family members, and bring peace to the parents. Children who rarely cry tend to be well-behaved, healthy, and understanding. They are also usually easier to care for.
Additionally, a cheerful child often indicates a good match between the child and the family. Children who are consistently playful, considerate, and less demanding tend to be happier and more self-regulating. On the other hand, irritable and difficult children may indicate a mismatch in the parent-child relationship.

Children with a sense of independence allow parents to rest easy
They learn independence at an early age
Children who are independent not only make life easier for their parents but also give them peace of mind when they are away from their care. Independent children tend to be more self-reliant and considerate of their parents’ feelings. They are a source of pride for their parents and often know how to take care of themselves. This independence also reduces the parents’ worries when the child is away from home.
While independence can be taught, some children are naturally more inclined towards it from birth.
They are caring and considerate towards their parents
Some children, from a young age, are attentive to their parents’ well-being. They are mindful of their parents’ emotions, remember to share their food with them, and think of them when they are out playing.
Having a considerate child is a source of pride for parents. Raising a child is a journey, and seeing that child care for you in return is a heartwarming experience. A considerate child is often a reflection of a loving family environment. However, even in families with multiple children raised in similar conditions, each child’s personality can be unique, leading to the belief that some children are a special blessing, sent to repay a debt of love.
According to folk beliefs, children who come to repay a debt of love from a past life continue the cycle of love in this life and the next. For those who come to collect a debt, parental love is essential to help them grow into better people and resolve the debt.
Does your child exhibit these traits? If so, count yourself blessed!
