I think this is th reason why we are all so connected...because we share similar experiences. Distinctly remember summers, never got coca cola and to compensate my mom used to make rasna...

We used to pour it out proudly and pretend we were having coca cola.

One Camlin box of crayons was supposed to last a whole school year, we used it down to the last bit.

Carried 10 paise with us only to fill air in our bicycles and watched with envy as other "rich" kids bought ice lollies to ward off the heat on their way home from school.

The emphasis was always on principles, padhai...even after I landed a good job my dad would constantly say don't waste money save it!

Nisha my childhood had been rather luxurious but my parents believed in the concept that I should know the value of money had have all the principles instilled in me. I was never denied any treat or game rather given two when I asked for one. But at the same time was slapped if I disobeyed my pati or tried to byheart a concept instead of understanding it.

In vandita I see my mother who used to protect me from my dads wroth when I did something wrong and try to protect me from m grandparents when I made a mistake

I really wanted to share this... I am a little bit confused about vandu's character...seems like the last few days are really bringing out the flaws of vandu and bala who were previously considered as the mature ppl to advice II...

Lets take vandu alone here...There was one thing I hated and one thing I loved in the 2 updates...

In the first update, I hated when she argued with bala about beating shravu... As I have previously mentioned "adichu valakarthula thappe illa" If bala had not punished yesterday, the kid wouldn't understand and take his mistake seriously...so wat happened was necessary...She had all the right to be angry for II...but not for beating shravu...I always believe that one parent has to be strict and the other can be a little lenient...That was how I was brought up...Niraya adi vangiruken amma kiterunthu...but today turning back I feel that it was necessary for shaping me...However my dad used to be very lineant...but still if I go and say him that amma adichuta, the first question he would ask is "wat did u do"...That is parenting...u shud never undermine the other parent...But I feel that it is missing in vandu which I hate...

But the thing I liked in the 2nd update is that she wanted to make things better between bala and shravu...she wanted shravu to say that he liked what his dad got for him...this was a good one as it will make both bala happy and would also improve the relationship between shravu and bala...

Swa, fully agree, but she is entitled to feel bad for her child illeya? MEN are more rational and practical, I am yet to meet a mother who after the kid gets a spanking goes to the child and says " Oh! u deserved it" in so many words or implies that
Mothers tend to feel terrible if fathers spank... fathers do too they will say "Vaayala solly ADIKKAADE"
My 2 year old or 3 year old will mix all the dals in the pantry or mix atta with rice... everything in the bottom shelf will be gutted... I will strike across their diaper laden bottom YET my husband will be " Kozhandaya poi adikare?" (why do u hit the child)

I may be wrong I bet there are many Moms NOT like Vandu... yes... but Vandu is this way
