Haye Allah Bachey Dekh Lain Gey

Since we are at the cultural gap of paindoos & ABCDs. Let me ask this question. Whats level of display of physical affection is allowed in your house, in presence of children.

1-(Ek Manji tey vi naiN bena) Don’t even sit on the same sofa.
2- Holding hands.
3- Kissing
4- Anything while dressed.

And with the response plz mention whetehr u live in Pind, City in Pakistan, naturalized american/british etc, 1.5/second generation.

Re: Haye Allah Bachey Dekh Lain Gey

first generation born and raised in the US, husband came to the US when he was 16… married with 3 kids…

#2 is no big deal, do it all the time
#3 a peck here or there, usually when leaving for work or returning, again not a big deal
#4 will cuddle on the sofa or in our bedroom while watching tv, while one of the kids tries to jump in too, which means we have a kebab main haddi type situation and then we have a big, group, family cuddle session.

Well people rarely care about these matters anymore. Showing physical affect to a certain limit in front of kids is actually good. I will never mind hugging, holding hands. In front of kids or even in public.

Like my parents were very loving to each other. They always appreciate each other in front of us. Holding hand, hugging. Specially naraz honey ke baan mananey ke liye Pyar kerna was so common in our house.

That gave a strong message to us that our parents loves each other a loooot.

#1 Don’t even need to mention.
#2 Only seen couple of times between my parents.
#3 & 4 is too much in front of children. 3rd gen born and raised in Karachi but I’m in Canada now but still can’t be open for 3 and 4 even if I get married and have kids here.

Re: Haye Allah Bachey Dekh Lain Gey

#2 yes, no harm in showing affection in front of kids or others

#3 yes again, a quickie kiss on the lips/cheeks, and if I am mad at him a ‘handshake’ which really bugs him :hehe:

#4 yes we do while watching TV, and like khatti said, kids jump in, same deal here.

My little girls are very jealous of seeing me with their daddy :smiley: they both try to push me off the couch so they can sandwich baba from both sides…haha mA!!!

we actually show our baby we are hugging n she jumps in, I think all kids do this, she is always telling her dad she is my mum stay away from her :stuck_out_tongue:

Re: Haye Allah Bachey Dekh Lain Gey

Re: Haye Allah Bachey Dekh Lain Gey

I like what Khatti said. Don’t have children yet but have grown up seeing affection in my family. My parents very seldom, they were more conservatively simple but my Mamus were always very affectionate with their wives. One of my phuppas as well. Holding hands, hugs, sweet nick names. I agree, showing a little affection is good for children to see between their parents as well.
