Posted by: bcdef a At: 5, Sep 2002 5:53:30 AM IST article bagundi. so ppl realise the value of parents when they also become parents. but where is the solution. India lo kuda slow ga u.s. culture vachestondi. children once their career is set, dont bother abt the parents. one of my collegue and his wife both well educated and in good position. made their children lives well settled and r in u.s. now. at the old age both sugar and BP patients. many times hospitalised and we had to look after them. now they r planning to shift to old age home in spite of having a good bungalow, bank balance. is it the net result they expected from their children? they r many such parents in india.
Posted by: Mr. sridhar sridhar At: 31, Aug 2002 12:56:47 PM IST First of all let me greet Mrs Padmaja for a crystal clear analysis of parenting,i would definetely agree with all the points she mentioned in her article,It infact true that I had a misconception that iwas not at liberty or i miss my wisdom to choose my own path or life, i often pondered why the parents are so possessive and interferring in many of the matters, and during my teenage years i was a sort of rebel, but in retrospective i feel they were right in many aspects,today if i look back from the place, where i stand it is all because of one eternal reason , my parents, iam proud to say
that that it is all by the virtue of their hardships,sacrifices which has made us to enjoy a better life,their possesiveness has made me to feel my responsibility, had given me a clear picture of the difference between the east and the west, being here in galway i could see the difference in the attitudes,
some times i feel dejected to see the children donot have any time at all for their parents,it is our moral responsibilty, to attend them in their old age,one can better realise this when he or she become a parent,it is true to the core our parents infact have made many sacrifices starting from our birth to present day, the shadows of their sacrifices and hardships will always be there reminding us our responsibility towards them, i do accept the fact that the western society has a view that a parent can be good teacher and should be a friend, but i have a few apprehensions regarding this, even though there is only one life for everyone,the kind of upbringing i had , would reinforce the bondage i share with my parents family.I congratulate the writer of this article for presenting a sensitive issue in a excellent way,adding a few dashes of her personal views as spices to make this article a delicacy .
kudos to Mrs Padmaja.
regards
Murthy

I appreciate the foreign way of upbringing with Indian Values. Ofcourse my parents give enough freedom to both me and my brother. But still I feel Indian parents should change their mind.
Parents should develop Individuality in children and observe them in their early years whether they are taking right decisions or not and explain them. We shouldn't order them but let them behave in order in their own way.
My friends who became mothers also said that they know the value of parents only after getting married and much revealation came when they become mothers.
Parents need to know our love. It is for sure. We must express them how much we love and care. But it is thru our behaviour. They should be taken care of in their later stage.

Its nice to see an article about parents. you have reflected the love of parents to their children in this article. Its known to every body that at preset there are a lot of people who don't care their parents. The reason is very simple. They will be living in dreamlands and do what ever they thik is the best. And the only mistake of experienced parents is that they can't see if their children are commiting mistakes (in India) and try to rectify them.In that way they are becoming most unwanted people in this world for their children. once they grow elder they will forget every thing that their parents had done for them.
But even then the poor parents will never give up their love towards their children. That's the love of parents.
