Presenting someone as a role model is not such a bad thing . Don't mothers use that on their children all the time . ''wooh dekho chunuu kitna acha bacha ha , zara tung nahi kerta apni mama ko'' . So men use the same technique .
Its not that they don't like their wives , its just that they want them to be the best . So glass is half full :)
yeah just cz moms use it...doesnt mean its right either... theres a thread in parenting right now about this very topic..
i think its messed up and very sad. it can make a person feel like they absolutely dont matter.
