1 MOTHER CAN RAISE 10 CHILDREN BUT 10 CHILDREN WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO TAKE CARE OF A MOTHER (PART 1)

I read with great sorrow stories about grown up children who neglect their parents and dump them in old folks house. Nowadays, it has become an ubiquitous scenario, especially among Indians. By now, you would have grasped on what I am going to talk about.


See, we’re born into this world through if explained by science, sex. While talking about it is not going to be subject, I would rather redirect you to the topic that I want to discuss.


I believe most of us would have heard about the story of children’s neglecting their parents and putting them into old folks home or don't care about them after they have become old.

This story is dedicated to those who neglected their parents who brought them to this world.

I, for one, would say that most of the time during my growing up years, I’ve been rebellious. In fact, I believe most of us would have been. Ever since we were brought to this world, no one else, I mean it, no one else would have cared most about us other than your parents.

Not your new come lover, not even your new come wife.
Dare to disagree? I hope not.
There is a saying that goes like your wife is the world for you after you get married. Your wife would be the one to be till the end. Indeed. Let me disagree with that saying today. I say, stressing it again, no one else would care for you as long as they’re alive, other than your parents.

When I was around 12, my father used to tell me stories like how he goes out drinking with his friends and so on. Every Diwali gathering, there was alcohol served to entertain my father's friends.

Since he had a short stint working in Carlsberg company, he would go on and tell me all the usual guy bragging story on how at the young age of 18 , he and his friends would have a wonderful time drinking all those Carlsberg beers direct from the factory. Note the point that he started drinking at 18.

Years passed by, and I reached the age of 18 - it is the life stage where friends become a major part of your life, various fun search becomes daily routine and porn becomes past time, I started playing around with alcohol. Nothing is better than a night drinking out with your friends, becoming totally sober with a few glass of beer than start creating havoc in restaurants.

When I came home totally pissed drunk one night, my father caught me. He further prompted for a blow test, in which I blew like it was my 21st birthday cake right into my father’s face. There I got return blow from his stiff body-building hands. How sweet.

The next day, we had a small discussion. My parents were sitting when all of a sudden my father told how he never starts drinking until the age of 25. That totally contradicts his earlier story, isn’t it? He went on saying that he was working hard until the age of 25 and only starts drinking after that age.

Right, maybe you can say now my father is hiding things. Perhaps a liar.


But all he cared about was me. That was his objective.


He reached his objective? No. I went on orgies, even testing drugs. Interesting indeed. Somehow, I never got addicted because my father was constantly nagging me and advising me. I understand why he had done so only now. 


Our parents sacrifice so much for us. So many events where they go hungry but ensure us well fed. However, I never went hungry for one day, I was born into a middle class family - my parents did everything they could so that they can provide for me the best they can.
