Today I spoke to one of my friend. She is expecting a baby. For that delivery she is thinking of bringing her parents to US. She said her mom is doing some drama in coming to help her. With in-laws most of the people will not feel much comfortable. But even with parents, people are not comfortable. She said she love her parents but she can't live with them for 24x7. If she live with them for 1 year, she might go mad. But if they are not well, she will go and help it seems. I'm surprised how clear she is about her people.
My thoughts:-
There is a huge generation gap between us and our parents. I feel sad about the fact that children are not comfortable with their own parents. As human beings within one family, we are not able to cope up with each other though lot of love is there. This is the reality almost everywhere. Many elders are not wise. Sometimes it is detrimental to be with them. I didn't see this level of divide between our parents generation and their parents generation. . Lifestyle changes are making huge impact on our lives and relationships. Human touch is very important. No machine can replace that. Before giving touch to others, one has to be healthy within oneself. For that, we need to have good healthy lifestyle. If not, we will miss the life.
