It is simple because the parents or family members never taught her anything. Everytime the girl wants to talk or anything she is always told to go play or yelled at to go play. They need to remember that the child needs to be raised and just giving her food, clothes and letting play is not going to raise her and is not the only responsibility of a parent. I have never seen the parents teaching her anything. They never nicely tell her not cry so much and bother everyone but instead she is slapped and yelled at. she will not learn anything from that. Even during the khushi track, nobody sat with her and try to tell her that she is not always going to be the only baby in the house and she needs to love her sis and understand that she was a baby and needed more attenttion.

Has Meethi been slapped? Well, I don't remember but as far as I can remember, she's always received a small yelling/stern scolding, however way you want to look at it, and that's it. Yes, perhaps Rajini should be teaching her not to cry too much and bother others but then I think back to my own life and try to remember how I learned to not bother others and when to cry and when not to. Turns out I wasn't given any explicit training; rather I learned to judge by myself. So it's more of an internal thing being able to recognize someone being upset and then choosing to give them space or not. Think about it, if you're upset, you obviously want space too so by that logic, others probably feel the same. It's really a general concept that even Meethi should know. Plus, I'm pretty sure her parents taught her to do unto others as you want done to yourself (ie, treat others the same way you want to be treated). SO I think this is more of Meethi's fault for ignoring the underlying emotions that everyone else is feeling and just going by her own selfishness.
In the mean time the parents needed to make sure to give attention to meethi and not make her feel left out all the time but no instead rajni was beating her and yelling at or telling her to go an play. Another thing i dont get is that why are they forcing their hatred on the kid. BP might be bad but he is not so bad that he would hurt or molest his own grandchild. He hasnt done anything to harm meethi so why should she hate him and not go talk to him. They need to teach that kid to always respect elders and by telling her not to talk to BP and stay away from him and by seeing everyone be rude with her that is exactly the treatment she would give to any elder. Meethi is too young to know everything that happened so they need to be careful when they are around her. she is too young to learn hating. She will not know who to hate and be nice with at this age.
Okay, first of all, the elderly are wiser and more experienced. They usually know what's good and what's bad for their children. And so they have the rights to make decisions for their children up untilt he point when the child can manage on their own and make proper decisions themselves. Having said that, BP is a very shameless man...he as a character is disgusting and worthy of being looked down upon. Everyone is right in warning Meethi and keeping her away from him since he is bad...he can instill bad values into her too since she is very impressionable. It's like there's a mafia in the world who kills people and commits evil crimes. The gang leader is hardcore evil but I haven't been touched by his crimes...the general population also hates him. Now just because I haven't reached the crossroads of his crimes doesn't mean that I don't stay away from him...he is epitome of evil and it's best to stay off his path and to hate him for his crimes. Also, Meethi doesn't necessarily need to hate BP...actually, she won't evenr be able to even if she knows of what he has done because only those who undergo the pain that BM, BP, Inder, Alok, Panna went through would be able to understand the hate and actually feel it. Secondhand accounts usually don't infuse the same feelings. Plus, they're not teaching her to hate...they're only telling her to keep away from this man as he is dangerous. That's not hate...that's just like me telling you to stay away from the cholera-infested marshes of the woodlands for your safety. Would you hate the cholera filled woodlands? No.
Plus she will obviously bother everyone because she has nothing else to do. She has no friends from what they have shown us and she is at an age where she needs to interact with other people and not just play all the time. Rajni and inder need to involve her in some extracurricular activities so she learns responsibilities and has something to do so when she comes home she is tired and does not bother anyone. Spanking and yelling might help for the time being but not in the long term and it wont teach the kid anything about life.

Meethi is pestering everyone at a time when they are highly tense...if she was understanding of the emotions that everyone was feeling and sympathetic to it, she would quietly find things to alleviate her boredom in ways that would not further trouble everyone and aggravate the situation. She would stay on the low until things have been sorted out.

No 2 kids r alike , some needs repeated scolding , some understand everything without scolding or being told . Usually girls r quick in this sorta thing . I can 't blame fully Rajni for scolding . It is not her proudest moment or Rajni doesn't wakeup thinking Oooh wow I will scold meethi for XYZ reason ...

Meethi too fail to read between the lines. When told NO repeatedly she wants to do the opposite of told . Then yes , parents r going to yell at you .

If ur parents tells u no then there must b reason behind it . I dont see inder - rajni as worst or bad parents , they r real . I have seen many mother - daughter have this kind of relationship .

Okay guys dont shot me .. but why are they treating this little girl like he is 2 years old. Okay she must be like what 11 years old or so.

It seems like she kind of gets her way in the family at a lot. No one can yell at her when she is wrong or anything. her grandmother said no one to spank her or yell at her. How are you suppose to teach her anything. I know ther are people out there that feel spanking or raising your voice on a child is wrong. Fine but babying them is even more wrong. They grow up to be spoiled brats ( case in point Suhanna)

They need to explain everything to Meethi about BP so she can understand what is going on. I feel bad for Inder and he is taking it out on her. But I think for her to start crying all the time is wrong also. I yell at the kids and they dont burst in to tears at the drop of dime.

Do you know even when children grow up even then they dont understand why their parents got divorced and separated they all the time same mom and same dad they never want a step or a granny for themselves that line remains their with their life why our parents not like the others together

First off there have been many incidences where rajini slapped meethi and BM or rano got mad at her for hitting meethi. Second you are forgetting that meethi is only 8 years old. Now you might have been a genius who raised herself and understood all life lessons but for many kids it is the responsibility of the parents to do that. So I am sorry but i do not agree with you that meethi should understand everything herself because she is a child. Second you cannot tell kid on one hand that this is you grandfather and then tell her to stay from him. Obviosuly she is going to think ok if all my friends can talk to their grandfathers then why cant i do it. Also, If a child understands everyones emotions , looks fro extrac curricular activities themselves and understand all life lessons at 8 then I wonder what the parent's job is at all. Maybe Inder and Rajni could just retire and give their money also to meethi so she could rent a place and run her life at the age of 8 years old which is way too young to do any of that. I think everything is forgetting here that meethi is only 8.

Dear you are 11 years old but from what they have shown meethi is only 8 which is far too young for her to act like a grown up. I can understand that you are mature at the age of 11. When I was 11 my father passed away and I understood everything and dealt with it all by myself and never bothered anybody. I knew and could tell when my mom was sad and knew that I had to be strong for her and not cry or anything coz that would be way too hard on her. But my brother who was 8 at the time had totally different reaction. He did not understand what was going on. He still wanted to get his way and not give too much thinking into why everybody was sad. If he wanted to go and play he didnt stop that because all the elders are sad because he didnt know why the elders were sad. So there is a huge difference between an 11 year old and and 8 year old. Plus meethi is the only child in that house and she is very spoiled and pampered so naturally the tiniest thing will make her cry because she knows that is the best way to get her way. That again is the fault of elders. They need to make sure when Inder or rajni is mad at her nobody else pampers her because that way she will never learn discipline.
