It is what he/she absorbs makes him/her what he/she becomes. Before the society, education or even authority figures take up, it is home where the child learns. As a parent or guardian, it is important to be conscious about what we are exposing our children to.

The death of my grandmother shattered me. We shared a special bond – she made me feel like I was the best in the world, perfect in every respect.
Apart from losing a person who I loved, her death was also a rude awakening for me about the discrimination women face when it comes to performing the last rites of their loved ones.
On January 23 this year, I lost my 95 year old grandmother (dadi) Nirmala Devi to cardiac arrest. She was that one person who unabashedly praised me.
