Re: Screeching three year old…
I don’t think of it as a desi thing though. I’ve seen kids from good families turn into horrible people and visa versa. I think the problem is they aren’t really exposed to other methods of parenting.
I mean I’ll probably be the only one not having kids while my inlaws and my partners cousins will be popping out babies… but since I’m in the habit of googling solutions for stuff… which is what I did to deal with the child. I try to give that info to others around me as well.
From how to remove your nail polish to storing food… not everyone reads books on how to raise children, or uses google… some people don’t even have those mommy groups that people in the west have…
Of course, I don’t have first hand experience. and thank god for that. I rather be the aunty rather than the full time parent that has to deal with the monsters 24/7. and when the time comes when I have a child I’m grateful that my partner will be present and not just be the sperm donor.
