Oh yeah. The Borg Queen reference is probably from Star Trek. I'm a booklover, and haven't watched Star Trek yet 😲 Have heard a lot about it though, so will probably get down to it sometime. I'm just very, very picky about what I watch 😊
I wish we have shows like Everybody loves Raymond in India. That was a so much more endearing dysfunctional family.
There again they functioned well as a family until raymond got married
ray did not balance his relationshp with his mom and wife well. sometimes he prioritzed his mom and sometimes his wife. hota hai.
does not make either party totaly right or wrong. A mother's role is in transition after marriage just as much as the son or the newDIL.
when a mother is as involved in a son's life as Marie Baron or Savita were, the shift of control by the son to the wife causes a lot of insecurity. no matter how hard the DIL tries she is never the solution. only the son can be the solution as he is the cause of the uncertainity. In moments of uncertainty we always desire the old status quo. Happened with Ray and is now happening with Manav.
