Daughters are precious gems

This is an appeal to all parents who wash their hands off their daughter's welfare after she is married. A child, whether a son or daughter, is for life...notice the first signs of discomfort....be sensitive to your daughter's need to reach out to you if she is distressed and do not wait for her funeral to speak up against the torture she was going through just because you thought ''things may improve''....this is what I heard Neha Chikara's father say on TV last night ....the poor girl was beaten up and had to take the extreme step of jumping off a cruise into the sea to commit suicide.....since our judiciary is insensitive , its time that we as parents take it upon ourselves to fight against injustice being meted out to the girls in the society.....nobody has the right to physically abuse anyone.... how many of you out there feel that once your daughter is married the responsibility of her welfare lies completely with her in-laws ??? how is it that your overprotective attitude towards your little girl changes overnight to being someone else's responsibility ??? How callous can we get ??? The fact that she is now staying with strangers should make you overprotective till you are sure she is happy.....
