As for you saying that there is NO reason for a girl to demand separate accommodation, well it’s girls like you who take away rights from girls. Also, who gives you the right to decide that it’s the girl who has to live with the guy’s parents and not vice versa?? Why are you promoting cultural vices? The Quran has told us time and again to take care of our aging parents…nowhere does the Quran discriminate between a son and daughter.
Frankly speaking I hate this cultural system. A son cannot take care of his elderly parents the way a daughter can. Women are nurturers, they know how to take care of their loved ones. Aging parents don’t just need financial support. They need a lot of love, time and patience and a daughter is better equipped to provide them that. That doesn’t mean sons don’t love their parents. Of course they do but they are not able to nurture the way a daughter can. So I think aging parents should move in with the daughter as opposed to this century long Hindu practice of relying solely on the son.
Huh? Who am i to take away anyone’s rights? just like you have your opinion, i have mine. Now who gave u the right to claim all that on me just cuz i think different from you? Lets take it like an argument and not a match where we have to put the other one down.
