I stay in NYC for most of the year with the kids. I work freelance for some law firms there. But Shiv's business is in India. And my father is in London so I move around a lot but I stay mostly in NYC with my aai and kids. It gets difficult for shiv sometimes so he wants to move us to Mumbai but the very thought drives me insane. India is scary.

di if it has to do something which u watch in shows then relax
there's nothing like that
they are from some other planet

nah guys not just the show. its the mentality of the people around. we move in a very tight community of mumbai, shiv and i grew up amidst them, they're educated and affluent yet their prejudices will boggle your mind. i think it would be easier if i came from a traditional family or if shiv and i were raising a traditional family. we're not. the other day my stepson came back from summer school and said that a boy teased him and said i wasn't his aai cos you can't have two mums thats weird. i spoke to the kid's mother who decided to show sympathy for me having to raise another person's kid. one of my MIL's friend had once asked her what made her agree to marrying shiv with me, he couldve done better with a 'pure' karada girl. i don't want my kids exposed to these prejudices before they are grown enough, with sound minds to judge right from wrong. thats why living here is scary. abroad my indian friends are people i choose to surround myself with, who aren't so skewed in their sense of right and wrong. the shows i watch are not my idea of india so don't worry!
