Hi Vishwas,

Point to ponder:

>I wud like to know, how many women who r earning can
>give some of their earnings to their parents and how
>many men who r earning can give some of their earnings
>to their parents?? 

Like someone already mentioned, how many husbands will allow their wife to
send money to her parents. As far as I know even if the woman is working,
she will have problems even making phone calls to her parents using her own
salary. Please don't tell me that the girl has to fight, if she fights and
the husband throws her out, it is the same parents that advice that she
should get back to her husband (if she stays with her parents then she
becomes a liability). What can a girl do, a typical Catch22 situation?

>Moreover, when it comes to marriage, I THINK that
>still today the cost of the Indian Traditional
>marriage is born by the parents of the girl. 

How many men around think that the couple getting married should spend for
their wedding and not their parents? Maybe 1%? Again paying for the marriage
varies from caste to caste and region to region. In the recent days I've
seen that the expenses are being shared by both the families. So I guess you
will have to rethink on this one Mr.Vishwas. It is not actually a problem
with girls, it is just the way society thinks!!!

Thanks & Regards,
-S.
