Re: Getting a place of your own
Most Mils in my family don’t even want their Dils around so they pack them away pronto. They didn’t move out on their own to get stuffed back into a joint family system because they have sons.
I do think if the mahol is oppressive wise people will do whatever it is to maintain peace… Even if its living apart. It’s important to be a loving family and there are millions of household who live together but are not happy at all. So faida kya itni unity ka if there are no happy memories.
And houses are not built for super sized families. In an average 4 bedroom house even if there are 3 sons and they have 3 kids each so where will they sleep. It was another time and place folks slept on the floor but can we see that happening now?
You have a point there, no point living under the same room when you hate each other lol.
Its not always about the physical space though. My friend’s in laws’ house was pretty big, but she needed ‘space’.
