Oh, oh, 'only romantic notions in mind' ..ouch! That was what would be called in boxing parlance a leveller! It has put me in my place good and proper, hasn't it? I shall thus retreat in good order before I am told that as I have no daughters, I am really not qualified to hold forth on the present topic. So you now see me bowing out of this particular debate, with a nice black eye in the making.

I was speaking about myself when I wrote that . Not you.
Meaning that I look at it with a point of view which does not have romance as the major ingredient. Because I see that in many posts which do not seem to see Archana's dilemma.
And who am I to knock anyone out. It is only my viewpoint which I presented .
My statement about my situation as a mother comes from my daily experiences and frankly I am always more nervous for them than I have ever been for myself at their age or later not withstanding the fact that i am a fairly successful professional myself. But that is parenting for you . It requires a stout heart . I wrote about it since you asked me if I would do the same thing if were in Archana's place. I am in a mothers role 24x7x365 twice over. That's all. I do not come here very often anyways.
And Did i ever say anything about your qualification to comment on the topic? I don't think so.
PEACE!
