A ray of hope - Law isn't blind anymore

Ok, so all you so called mature and modern kids of the modern era, beware!!! For now the bill that would heal up the bleeding wounds of thousands of parents dumped by their children has been passed. In my opinion this bill should have been passed long back , but anyways its better late than never. I must have seen n number of bollywood flicks in the past based on this children-parents issue. When I was a kid , I used to feel really sorry and bad about those old people shown in the movies ill treated by their children. Then my Mom used to tell me that it’s just a movie and those characters are just portrayed in the movies and now I realise that those fictitious characters told a ton about this ugly truth. A truth that has shattered the old age dreams of millions of people of this nation. Some people say that their parents act weird in the old age. What the F**k!!!!! Were we born sensible ???? Didn’t we act stupid at times when we were school going kids ???? But the irony is that parents find these habits in their children naughty and sweet and children find them irky, “nauseating” and feel like running away.I am sure you all must have seen TV channels flooded with pension plans and other packages for the old. I am particularly fond of the one in which an old man about 60 tells his wife to do the household herself as he is getting retired and they cant affort the luxuries of hiring housemaids,and when the wife insists to ask money from their son , he says no.Ever wondered what the ad makers are trying to project to sell their product. These ads speak volumes about the unsaid , painstaking stories of many people.

This new bill will definitely lit a flame of hope for many septagenarians. Dare you ask your parents to leave the house or ill treat them, you would be put behind the bars and moreover you can’t appeal against it in the court. I welcome this with an open heart. But still I believe parents are such wonderful human beings that they wouldn’t use this law made their own self well being. They would never want to see their kids in Jail no matter how badly their soul gets hurt by the humiliating words of their children. The other factor would be the illiteracy percentage in this country. While I can sit and blog about this law here, there would many who wouldn’t even know about it . The solution could be to make people aware about this law like spreading awareness against AIDS.


Money is not what these old sweethearts want from you guys, it’s just a few loving and caring moments which would be much more valuable for them than millions of $.
There are many children , who don’t get see enough of their parents as they pass away when they are quite small . And if god is merciful upon you enough to bestow their blessings always for you ,today then you are freakin’ lucky.


At last, it would be delightful to see all those families getting reunited like the ones that used to in the climax of those movies that I used to see sitting in my mother’s lap.Remember K3G , well this bill would shy off even Mr. Karan Johar!!!

Good night.
