May be this doesn't affect the so called "developed" nations that much but this haunts others as well.. <br /><br />Coming back to the issue you've raised.. Yes.. Yes.. Yes.. We definitely need to get ourselves out of such non sensical behavior.. We need more Education than more "degrees".. <br />And society is we all.. we need to check ourselves when we say anything against our neighbors, people we call friends, our relatives.. and then there is where the "new society" beginsMy Experiments with Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12374097457317430231noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6168376355457288703.post-33469698663746807352012-02-24T16:50:41.803+05:302012-02-24T16:50:41.803+05:30Hi, hopped over from IHM's.

We are a nation of nosy-parkers who delight in not minding our own business.People try fiercely to put down any hint of rebellion against the accepted norms by circulating vicious stories sometimes leading to social ostracization. Not everyone has the strength to put up with it.<br /><br /> Some do brave it,however, and I have observed that they do just fine eventually.

If I say anything against that, then I am "too young" to understand how the society works. I think it is about time that we leave this mentality behind and move forward.

I guess those who are sure of their own minds and choices, are the ones who can change "the people's" mindsets.Indian Home Makerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10649133480442907582noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6168376355457288703.post-63846290775420938842011-03-27T15:25:28.026+05:302011-03-27T15:25:28.026+05:30@PhoenixRitu – Long tongues and short memories – h...@PhoenixRitu – Long tongues and short memories – how very true ! <br />@Vaish- I sometimes wonder why we have some much social pressure only in India ! <br />@ Shail – I agree.

All the time in the world to poke noses into everyone else's affairs and then perform the role of a newspaper by disseminating the news! I wish these people would do something worthwhile with their time. <br /><br />"Parents are more concerned about their girls getting married “at the correct age” not because they want them to find a life partner but because people will talk if the girl is unmarried"<br /><br />It is these wrong reasons for marriage that makes me condemn it roundly. Like you said, people will talk anyway, so why bother about them??<br /><br />"they don’t go for a divorce simple because “the flak my child will have to face once people find out he comes from a broken home”<br /><br />This is the only true problem that the children of single parents face, the 'flak' from those interfering nosey-parkers. What actually affects them negatively is the tongue wagging from these people, not the single-parenthood itself. If some way could be found whereby these tongues could be frozen each time they tried to open it for their false sympathies or hurtful barbs , the children of single parents would grow up as normal as any.shailhttp://http;//shailsnest.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6168376355457288703.post-18624160803575732902011-03-27T05:05:31.754+05:302011-03-27T05:05:31.754+05:30How right!!
