What Father's Day? And Is It Even Required?

Deleted as duplicate.

 

One has to chalk it ("the status") down for hypocrisy. And the person has to live with that. Or.. , as you rightly point out "for reasons better known only to him"
Perhaps, the NRI may has a different audience to foist that father's day habit. His own children.
Facebook or other social media posturing is pablum for acquaintances, and long lost school-mates/friends. Not meant for A's who may know K's inside out.

 

Honestly, I don't mind celebrating these special days. No matter how grateful we are to our parents, siblings, better halves, children, friends, etc., it is impossible to express our gratitude in routine life. I don't see any harm by baking a small cake for my mom, or buying a tie for my dad, or giving a manicure to my sister just to make them feel special and loved.

 

I like that.

 

my cousin's parents are old and they live in this place in india by choice.

Retirement Homes | Senior citizen Living Homes - Nana Nani Homes

they love it and they do not even want to visit usa. cousins are very well off in usa. they take care of expenses.

 

Have you not heard ? USA isn't a desirable visit location. It is a dangerous, horrible place, and the NRI who live there get hardship allowance (the extra money they get for being there) over what they could earn in India. If you start a forum thread for what is wrong, those who live there could post a whole litany of things. Let me start:

• No pani-puri cart-wallah in the street, even in big cities.

 

It is a "hissing(sic!) contest", if one were to use the proper local vernacular language.
