Same here.

Though my mom works, it's always Dad who has bought us gifts whether it was for holidays or birthdays. But I never took it as Dad got me something and Mom didn't. It's understood that it's from both of them.

I really can't seem to understand why she's making such a huge deal out of it. I mean, SO WHAT if Babes used HS' money? As it is, both Hanita don't see it as mera aur tera, it's "humara". What will it take for Minnie to get on that track? 🙄

Loll, but what's new in that? If Babes can do it to Minnie, then Minnie can do it to her mom too I guess. 🤷‍♀️

Didn't he also get paid for the modelling gig?

Dont even remember, I am not even watching properly when anyone else except Hanita are onscreen. In that case Ashok wont have to worry, beti usko bhi model banake pankh dedegi!!

i think she said even if HS directly gives a gift from his salary im okay. but not if babita takes and gives it to mini

So now HS should know what Minnie likes? From what I remember she didnt like the last gift he got her. First she said to Mickey I cant take anything from HS- it will be ehsaan. Bandi badi confused hai!!

I see this situation in my friend home. She was single mother and when her son is around 12 years she married again but stepfather don't like to send money on him and mother decided to be housewife again now little boy is 19 not living with them move to London UK.

I understand minni's mind of status HS Minni not in perfect situation so her saying this totally justify for me and I proud of her. This kind of kids life is not easy as you compare to normal life.

Erm... while that particular situation is sad, here case is different. HS has no problem taking care of Minnie's expenses. At least he hasn't showed any yet. Also until now babita cooked meals for him even when he wasn't her husband (and she paid all rent before wedding so that hisab is clear). Now she takes care of his home, does cooking, washing clothes and dishes, cleaning etc... which is unpaid labour. It doesn't generate independent income but it's still labour for which a normal person would be paid money. So she isn't a freeloader. That money isn't charity. Just that Minnie does not think of her work as a job(it isn't but it's still work- I hope my point is clear here).

And Minnie's situation is difficult, but as someone rightly pointed out that she's very passive aggressive. At this point she's hurting her mother's emotions. I disagree with lots of things my parents believe and do but I never behave with them like her.

Minnie's idea of empowerment is right, but first rule of empowerment is it shouldn't be forced.

Lol! It's not even a social debate anymore. It's just stupidity at this point, arguing for the sake of arguing.

I agree, unfortunately this has been the case since the wedding.

Minnie's way of empowering babita is now contradicting the idea of freedom of choice itself. She's forcing babita directly or indirectly to make progressive choices- while intentions are right, method is very wrong.

Can anyone explain why babita was thinking so much spending HS money .She earlier took Ashok money and she is part of society where husband wife do share money .Or Is it Bec for the first time she was taking money or there is still some distance b/w them as couple to actually start living like couple who share finances takes home decisions together .There is still a hesitation between them ?

Maybe they didn't have that much cash at home?

She did call a jeweler over so she will need quite a bit.

But tbh, trying to find any sort of logic in this show is pointless. They won't be pay attention to these minute details anymore. All they care about it is throwing the latest "progressive" idea at us, showing Minnie to be right, Babita wrong, one hollow family moment and then we repeat the loop.

Everything I had from childhood came from my father. My mother is a housewife. So I won't understand all these things.

May be the problem here is HS is not Mini's father. He is just her uncle. She can accept direct gift from uncle but not when it comes through her mother.

This is exactly the issue. Though technically HS is babitas husband to uska paisa babita ka bhi but mini might not be finding it ok. And the main issue is mini is upset because of babita to let go of her financial independence. So that is the way she is protesting.
