Elder son leaving for college - Page 2

The part that I find most struggling is — Babies and toddler kids sleeping in their own crib/bed and in their own room. American vs Indian parenting. Its a real struggle between heart and mind. Between how I grew up and how my kids should. So I hear ya dr. Nene.

I still can't believe that this selfish woman uprooted Dr Nene and the 2 kids from their life so that she can judge reality shows and make vlogs with Dr Nene......and this is my opinion..😳..

What uprooted? She lived in USA for many years, didn’t she?

So if she relocates for her spouse, it’s fine. But when he does, it’s not? 🤷‍♀️

By the looks of it, Dr. Nene seems to be ok with it. You are acting like his phuphi. 😆

I'm curious to learn why you think this is selfish?

Once upon a time, she was one of the biggest stars in Bollywood. It could not have been easy to go from that to a homemaker. Do you really blame her for wanting more? Is it so bad to have dreams and aspirations? She did try coming back into movies, but because of the utter lack of good roles for older females, she had to settle for being a judge and make vlogs.

I am sure she had a discussion with her husband and they made a choice as a family. Historically, in many cultures, women uproot their entire lives to get married. And women and kids uproot themselves so many times for their husband's careers - good, bad, ugly, and stupid. Why is it selfish for women to do that?

Madhuri is lucky to have such nice n understanding husband. Glad she married out of Industry n it worked for her.

Why how did she uproot him?? Wasn't it his own decision as well, he seems happy n they look like one happy family.

As far as I know....Madhuri had an arranged marriage....it was not like they were both in love so much that one of them had to leave their career to be together.....Mads said in one interview that Dr Nene had NO IDEA about her star status back home....so he wasn't star struck either....Madhuri could have married ANYONE in India....I am sure there was no dearth of good eligible men for her.....but she CHOSE to marry and she CHOSE that life....If Dr Nene had no idea about who she was ...she was just another nice girl for him...I am sure had he known that he will have to give up his country , his career and go live in India...he would have refused to marry her.....I am sure just like for Madhuri there must have been a line of good girls for him in USA too...a good looking American doctor...oh yes.....so this is my reason for calling her selfish....she went into this out of her own sweet will...she didn't sacrifice anything...probably she was too tired of BW...I don't blame her.....but Dr Nene didn't go into this marriage thinking that after 10 years he would have to relocate to India and make vlogs...trust me...he doesn't look like that....but anyways...I think he is a very nice man who respected the wishes of his wife....that makes him very nice and Mads is still selfish..
