    My dear Meena !

    Do not bother too much about Deepu bossing you at this stage. That is a warm friendly bossing !
    Even now, I ask Ruby, advice on so many things because I strongly believe
    "Daughter is the mother of woman" !
    Thanks for the F B.

    Proverb No.16

    Dear Chitvish

    How very true abt this proverb No.16. I did and still pamper my kids to the core. I truly agree with the first and the last part of the proverb but not the middle one.
    Though my elder one has entered the phase of Adithu Valar, somehow I do not beleive in it. I do scold her, yell at her to discipline her but I never can bring myself to beat my beloved kid. In US there must be laws against beating a child.

    Enjoyed all the Iypassi Matham proverbs. My Mom used to say: Iypassi Matham Adai Mazhai.

    Late Feeback, Chitra !

    Dear Chitra,

    I think this is the first time I am replying very late to your Proverb thread...I have been so much busy with work, that I am bereft of the luxury of browsing these days.. Had a chance to look at your proverbs only today.

    This time your posting looks little high for me...! for most of them I understood their literal meaning, though not the context where they are generally used.

    Proverb 9 reminded me of my mom,she often uses this proverb at home. I have heard of proverb 4.

    Proverb 16 is very apt for parental care. Proverb 9 is normally used in the context of siblings.

    Good collections, as usual.

    Love,
    Preethi

    My dear Meenu !

    Translation cannot reproduce the original beauty of the proverb, definitely !
    Thankyou for the F B.

    My dear Laxmi !

    Welcome to this thread !
    You " stick" the thread dutifully every time, I thank you for that !
    Adithu valar means only disciplining - not exactly thrashing, I feel. That was the theory in olden days !
    Thankyu for the F B.
    Love,
    Chithra.
