💥What is happening with our Mothers born in 1950-1980s? 1. These batch of women were groomed for building a family and household chores were fundamental to their routine and existence. They were not taught or groomed for nuclear living or solitude. Their individuality is their participation in the growth of family members. Their individuality was never about themselves alone. 2. Youngsters, especially sons who are married recently find it painful to see their mothers still operate the chores like before while their wives enjoy a lot of solo time and individual goals. What is the duty of the society & family? 1. Do not snatch all the work from these elderly mothers in one stroke just because you have money to get these done. 2. These elderly mothers will find it as a shock and feel themselves clueless, work-less and purpose-less in life. 3. A lot of personal attention will be needed to first find out what slow activity they will find useful and interesting to them. Activities which will not involve your well-being will not be interesting to them. They are not okay with any regular activities which is "solo" and meant ONLY for themselves. E.g. - You can't be telling her to play games, watch movies or have vacations as a regular activity. 4. Once you find those activities you will have to ensure you or their grand children consume the outcomes of those new activities they have recently learnt to do.
