    Dear Radha, you must remember that however much we train, the sons will observe their father a lot & inherit their genes as well!!
    Love,

    Dear all,
    Life is never perfect. Ideal situation will be both husband and wife take share and do their part in bringing up. Let us face reality- it does not happen this way.The familywill be generally male dominated or female dominated. So the one takes a lead and other has to mend and bend a bit, otherwise it will be chaos.
    Children pick up traits from the family and also learn from friends and media. We can only guide them& when they are very young inclulcate basic core values, & later when they are grown up timely advice and friendly talk works .Children are like river at time flows smoothly ,at times it is ferocious and uncontrollable ,most of them at the end joins the sea ,few dries up half way thro'.
    So to say wife is responsible is not fair , but she plays a role too , while husband alone is not fair, he too plays a role. Don't forget the innate traits one is born with, they emerge out sometimes.
    May God bless you all
    Jaya

    Jaya, your comment, call it post, is a GRAND FINALE!
    Both have to compromise, work hard for harmony, setting aside ego, because as I wrote in my leader post
    We are married for better or worse!
    Love,
    Chithra.

    There was a survey in the news some time back, ( this keeps cropping up in some news website or the other with a regular frequency) that stay @ home moms with a couple of kids, in the US contribute the equivalent of 130,000 $ per annum for all the chores & the work hours they put in...While we Indian tends to shrink away from the thought that we shd monetize the work we do at home ( not to mention a section of the senior generation heaping scorn at new bits like this), let us begin to take pride at the choice we have made by staying at home ensuring our lil children get the security and right values growing up (many of us ladies took these for granted when we were younger), and lets not let any kind of guilt creep up on us that we re maybe not contributing enough to the family money pot by not going out to work!

    Aishwaryam, you have such a bright, optimistic username! You have written, golden words, very true, as well! The wife's main role is becoming "supplement to the income" from a home-maker. But life style has qlso changed & everybody has fallen prey to it. So long as these things do not reflect on our priorities of life & basic values of life, we need not worry. But, I wonder??
    Love,
    Chithra.
