    Dear Sri
    Its very important for a mother to be with child and bring up child in the initial years say 0 to 5 atleast and at that time AT ALL TIMES !!
    I did it with support of husband. Ofcourse husband being present is equally acceptable to. But I faced a lot of opposition for my decision from all and sundry because everyone labelled me lazy for not going to work full time. Little do they realise I do have a full time job at home and a much more important and valuable job at that!

    Sri has Sir in it! No need to repeat it again!
    Sir is essentially a British practice and its usage is being discouraged everywhere else for people think that it creates a strong curtain between two communicating persons!

    Senior citizens only want to be loved and cared for and not to be 'Sir'ed!
    Have you taken over the 'chindu mudinjify' job now? Do you think you'll be equal to our dear AC?

    Dear Sri,
    No way can I be adept at it like AC. Me & Chindu mudinjify are poles apart.
    I just thought I will teach manners to her, all the more because you are always bent on projecting your age! So, I just had a faint doubt !
    I specially do not project my age, as if asking for respect. Infact ILites know, I am a senior citizen, but I just want to be called Chithra.
    Love,
    Chithra.

    Dear Chithra
    You'll get all the respect even if you are a giggling girl of 18 by the sheer weight and profundity of your culture posts! You dont have to be a senior citizen for it.
    Did not Thirunavukkarasar shoulder the palanquin carrying the young Sambandar who was 10 times younger than him only because of the young one's erudition?
    Sri

    Dear Sri sir

    An apt post for me at the right time. Bringing up two daughters is the most difficult job a mother can face.

    Though when I was young (still I am young only) I used to always tell my mother that my brother had a better position with her. I used to always crib that oru kannugu vennai innu onnukku sunnambu though maybe in reality it was not like that. Now I am at the receiving end from my kids.

    However hard I try to see them equally, they will still have a grouse against me and stump me in unexpected quarters. But nowadays kids are also too sensitive, they sense these things just by our body language and sometimes their imagination also runs riot. Poor parents are totally frustrated and driven against the wall. (experience is talking here) and believe me my kids are having a gap of four and half years.

    Agreed sometimes parents too contribute (nee my husband) and the grandparents also but finally mother bears the brunt. Explaining and building a bond again strains us a lot. Sometimes I do feel when they grow up they will understand and leave it at that.
    But my conscience does prick me Whether I have failed in my duties as a mother?
