Wjkk, wjkf Sadh sangat ji, I wanted to raise this topic to see if it's just not me noticing that in many many gurdwareh across the uk, children in paticilar are able to run round freely without covering their heads in the presence of Shiri Guru Granth Marajh Ji. Surely parents should make sure their children have their heads covered as a child is simply innocent if they dont know, also we as parents make sure our children wear school uniforms, should we not insist that the rule should be implemented in the gurdwara too? As how then is a child meant to respect the Guru Granth Sahib Ji in later life, when the most basic head covering rule is relaxed? I have three young children myself, they all understand that in a gurdwara and in the presence of our guru, we cover our heads. My eldest is Four, Middle monsters Two and the youngest Seven months. As their parents, we make sure they abide by the rehat maryada. However, we are not amrit dhari as yet. In my opinion, it is unseen beadbi, but urgently needs to be debated and resolved. Thankyou for reading my post! Wjkk, wjkf
