But she had three sons and two step sons that she raised well; they all grew up to be fine young men. As much as I don't like her, I will give it to her as a mother. Whatever kind of human she was, whatever kind of a woman she was is not pertinent to the fact that she was a fine mother. Her sons stayed away from greed, jealousy etc. and she tried and was successful in keeping them away from it too. They were raised in a way that they were never not satisfied with whatever they had.
So why does she get targeted on the basis of a mistake she made as a teenager, teen pregnancy is frowned upon even today, especially if the girl is unmarried (and not just in India but other countries too),which results in so many atrocities, not just against the female but also the child too. New born dumped in garbage? Abortions? New born killed?
But kunti is quick to be judged. "She could have done this; she could have done that, so many options, so many alternatives blah blah."
(everyone who did not made mistakes as a youth, throw a stone at her)
What about the more mature and wiser personalities involved? Rishi Durvasa and Suryadeva, both are to be held accountable alongside her, if not more. Durvasa was a famous sage, quite elderly and intelligent and Suryadeva was, well Surydeva ...They both were more experienced, more aged than a teenage girl. They should have known better. Give a brand new Iphone 5 to a youth and tell them to not use it, see how it functions.
So what steps could these two have taken to avert the disaster?
Couldn't durvasa give the Mantra to her Guardian? Warn her that don't use it till you are ready to become a mother? Wait till marriage? What about Suryadeva?
