Inclination towards Gods

Hi Megha! I would have been little concerned had he been playing the role of Ravana or other characters potrayed as bad. May be he is watching serials regularly based on mythology. U could keep a watch on this and not let him overdo it. As long as it is is not affecting his day to day life, I don't see any cause of concern. You could try and make him explore other options on television such as Animal planet, discovery, Nat Geo wild, ZQ etc.

Megha, I agree with Shikha Batra. maybe it is the effect of chotta bheem, kisna, hanuman etc on him. Monitor the content he is exposed to and reduce it. Expose him to a variety of things, stories, books (books on space, sea life, animal world etc) to widen his horizon. Also, children sometime develop fascination for things but it is also seen that they gradually outgrow the same.

Thanks Shikha & Rachna for your valuable comments. Really appreciate

Dear Megha, I am guessing that this is just a phase and it may pass soon. Boys often like to pretend to be superheroes and destroying the bad. Your little boy is not different than other boys who want to be Spiderman, Superman, Ironman or Batman.. The list can go on, I have one at home who is a different hero everyday and fights with the evil. Roll play is very important and does help in building self confidence in children. I think you are lucky that your son takes interest in Indian mythology. This way he will know a lot about the Mahabharata & Ramayana :)

Thanks Anurima. This was indeed a very positive insight shared by you. I am feeling a bit relieved now.
