its true, joint families have far surpassed their expiry date.
u knw wht im sayin is true cuz most of you reading this must most probably be thinking "what's the harm in that? in fact its good!".
well im not happy. maybe im wierd... maybe im old fashioned in this respect... maybe im stupid... or maybe im right... god knows!!
i've been stayin an on and off joint family ever since ever.
its good... its a support... its family.
but times have changed n i wud like to blame the westernisation for the nuclearisation of this country (cliche, i know, but just cuz th truth has been repeated often doesnt make it wrong)
everyone wants independence--dont get me wrong--even i do!! but from what?
i mean u know its not the mughals or the british. thn wht do we want it from?
from th constant pestering... the nagging... the 'wear proper clothes'... the 'dont stay out so late'... the 'why cant u just be normal'... u get the idea.
i mean of course we want to be free from all that... its not letting us be who we want to be... right?
thats why we want to completly leave the hassels of the joint family behind.
hell, we want complete freedom. thats wat our grandfathers fought for, right?
thats why we want to leave those stupid parents, who are holding us back, behind and start our own life.

we are right... as in with wht we want n all...
we are right... but they are not completly wrong either.
maybe we just cant see it. maybe we'll see it wen we r parents.
i hope we'll see it thn at least.
i dont knw, maybe its not our parents we need to fight. not th british either, but again, i wud like to blame the west (read: America). its them who everyone wants to follow right?
we want to be like them, in every manner.
n for that we need to take some of th blame as well... n i do.

so just a summary: i blame the westernisation. n for tht i blame the west. i blame the media for constantly hammering our minds with the west. n of course, u gotta b man enough to accept whtevr shit is happenin to u is a fault of urs as well, so i blame me. i blame us.
oh, n yes, as my friend naveen had suggested in one of his comments that i deleted cuz i thot the werent of consequence (hw stupid of me to delete it there n quote it here):
"we can probably live in the same building in different flats/floors, etc."
i agree to that, im just against th concept of alienating ourselves from our families mentally.
we can only do wht we can do.
in the future maybe i'll do sumthin tht affects many others. as of nw i got my own issues to look out fr.
im gonna stand by wht i've tried to preach to myself right nw.
im gonna be a mama's boy... mama im stayin home!!
