To: In India. Son lives with their parents even after marriage
Me: Seems to be a culture thing. Perhaps you should look beyond the moment (after you have lots of kids), to when your son marries and his wife ends up looking after you and husband.
However, I agree with you, it is not right.
I also disagree that you would marry a man who lives and works overseas and who you don’t see more than once a year. He can do whatever he likes, away from his family and you, but you are bound to stay pure for him, because his family has you on a hook.
While you love this man, fair enough, but I would have thought he would have wanted you living with him overseas and not with his parents, after all, can’t you get work overseas, doing whatever you do, instead and double the income earned overseas, instead of just getting by on whatever income you get in India plus looking after his parents for him?
If I were you and I had any choice, I would rather my husband was with me every night in India and I would not agree to your prescribed future, but that is just me and if your marriage is arranged by your family, you don’t have any rights then, do you?
