Yes, you are right about the empty nest.. it hits parents really hard particularly in these days of single child families!Meera Sundararajanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15584671517551652378noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7269219202790509435.post-48756837322241324892013-03-22T23:36:14.351+05:302013-03-22T23:36:14.351+05:30Thanks Anil, yes we are 'out in the sun ' ...Thanks Anil, yes we are 'out in the sun ' so to say.. about the CBSE math paper, I don't know, but I can well believe in the sadism of examiners! Thankfully, we have decided not pursue maths beyond std X.

The empty nest syndrome is sending well-educated parents for counselling who do not know to adjust after the birds that they tended flew off. The parents should prepare themselves and adjust themselves and not <br />push themselves down the deep well of depression. the parents being busy for their children have brushed their hobbies, likings under the carpet. Now is the time to utilize for things undone, incomplete.kalpana solsihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05459797629127380780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7269219202790509435.post-33084238894436363762013-03-21T13:13:28.580+05:302013-03-21T13:13:28.580+05:30Exile or was it incommunicado?

Forced by circumstances, and changed life and attitude we parents brought about upon our kids in relation to their board examinations.<br />I just heard that the CBSE Std 12 math paper was prepared by a sadist who wanted to flaunt his prowess in Math and mocking at young minds. Kids virtually have lost hope of passing , even the excellent ones.<br /><br /><br />Watch out the bubble will burst and young minds will be lost for ever. <br />We are being cruel and unreasonable.<br /><br />Now hope you mother and daughter will enjoy the sun. Good luck to the little one.anilkurup59https://www.blogger.com/profile/07961961217418715354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7269219202790509435.post-7605000029654863782013-03-21T12:47:10.438+05:302013-03-21T12:47:10.438+05:30The crisp and concise last para says it all.

Liked very much as you and husband sacrificed your pleasures for the success of your daughter, esp in this age of technology, it takes love and determination.<br />I remember how we read with oil lamp, throughout the night, and to stay awake some students put their legs in a basin of cold water!..ahahaha.<br />Technology in a way has made some things easier...with goggle there, information is not far off.<br />Best of luck to your daughter.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
