They are the sons and daughters of Life's longing for itself.You are the bows from which your children as living arrows are sent forth
Answer: This certainly means that though parents are the means by which children are born in this World it does not mean they have the power to control them as they are born with their own qualities and destiny which we are unaware of.
Explanation:
Most of us parents have a visceral reaction to the first phrase because we have a biological, emotional, and spiritual drive to care for our children. We selected (maybe) to have them. We are raising, teaching, and loving them with great care. However, this does not imply that you "belong to" us. They are not ours. We may have decided to conceive them (or not), but we did not pick who they are. We are the method by which they came to be, but we did not create them. Nature, God, or a power bigger than ourselves is to blame. This certainly means that though parents are the means by which children are born in this World it does not mean they have the power to control them as they are born with their own qualities and destiny which we are unaware of.
