In the past few days, Komal has placed a shocking new demand before Arushi and Tanmay (sorry I don't know their combined name, is it Tanshi? 😕)... Anyway, Komal demanded that the couple contributes towards half of the family's expenditures.
While thinking about this, I found that I could not make a decision as to who was right. Komal was justified in her demands as Arushi and Tanmay are both living in the house since the last four years, and as far as I know, they are paying basically just the rent of living in the house. Is it not their responsibility to pay for their complete living expenses? However, Tanmay doesn't earn as much as Adarsh does, and so probably cannot afford to pay half the expenses.
What do you all think? Is Komal right to make such a demand from Tanmay? Is it also Arushi and Tanmay's responsibilty to pay for Dadi and Prof's expenses? Or should they just be paying for themselves?
Is it only the son's responsibility to bear all the expenses? And just because she is the daughter of the household, is Arushi (and therefore Tanmay) excused from it? Even if she has been living there for years, and plans to continue living there for years to come? How much should she be contibuting?
I'd like your opinion on this... because even I am unable to make my mind.
