Thank you for this amazing post Aani. Parenting is the toughest job in the world yet there's no proper guidebook or training available. Parents learn to deal with their kid with time and from experience. Besides the points you have risen, I think this fact also contributed to Ishita's actions. She's only been a parent for about a year and half that too of a really sweet baby with whom she has a strong connection. But suddenly she's the mom of a teen with troublesome past. That has to terrify her. She doesn't know this kid enough to know where he's coming from or what his limits are. Raman on the other hand can chill because he did raise him for six years and although he didn't get to act the part of a parent for a long time, he still was one. Although that experience doesn't necessarily make him a better parent, but it surely helps in coping with the fears that come with raising a teen.
