Re: Has the West ruined families?
^^ not really, we have so many family problems in our country
if women had freedom and opportunity to survive without a need for a husband to provide for them and could easily divorce their husbands then pakistan's divorce rate would be higher than the west
I'm not insinuating that life is heaven for married couples in pakistan; but specifically, the western lifestyle and the many things it offers that the couple from Pakistan have never encountered. For instance, it is quite common for western ladies to work. Pakistani ladies see this, find a job, and let the money (that they're earning) go to their head.
Another example, Pakistani men see the freedom that the western men have in terms of drinking and travelling and want to follow by shedding their responsibilities toward the family. Also, these men see that in western families the kids are out of the house by 18 and thus insist that their kids start earning as soon as possible w/o taking into account that to form a proper career children need to be supported into their 20's.
