A modern woman is someone who is independent and courage and knows how to articulate herself. A modern woman has the sense to make her own decisions. A modern woman is not so gullible or weak that she turns vegetarian to please her boyfriend and then breaks the commitment because her new guy and his family eat fish. So kareena dear just because u don't want to have kids because u r under the illusion that u still have or will have a career in 5 years, it doesn't make u modern. It is just ur choice. The fact that u lived in with said, was also a choice.
And the part that she called saif's kids her children is an insult to their real mother. I had more respect for kareena when she used to say she is just like their friend and they already have a mom. As long as Amrita is alive and in her kids lives she is their only mother. Amrita is the one who give birth to them and raised them. Just because u married their father doesn't make them ur children.
Just to defend the other side, there's nothing wrong in saying that. I mean wouldn't it be worse if she treated the kids like how Shilpa or Sri Devi treated their step-children?! I think it def would.
The way she treats her step-children reflect on how beautiful her heart is, no matter how inarticulate she might be and how many dumb statements she makes. She isn't fickled minded about her step-children and never made him choose between her and them. And never did she try to drive them away to get his affections. So it's quite commendable and admirable. And I don't think she's stealing away Amrita's right. She is their step-MOM so I rather she treat them like their her own and love them than be this cruel, evil stepmom. It's kind of like damned if she is and damned if she's not...which in my mind makes no sense.
