his is the first and all time, most asked question by lady of the house to everybody. This is as if the most, first expected question & concern from her. Effects of Media

Whether we agree, like or accept or not, but when we are shown everywhere on television, movies, dramas, all mothers and wives are shown to ask this and such questions. There is nothing wrong in it, in fact this is first duty of women to take care about food but it is not the only thing one should be asking. Many times mental food is more important than physical food. The conversati­on, interest taken by moms should not be limited to just serving them only. Moms and wives need to focus first on conversati­ons apart from food to daily life and interestin­g things during the day. Mothers or wives or sisters only relation need not be stereotype­d as we are used to seeing, exposed to how it is portrayed. We are human beings with intelligen­ce, personalit­y and knowledge. When we are with our family members, taking part in activities of our own, doing some work or hobby, we can relate to others better.

New World with old dye

Our basic lifestyle, thought are still going to be some but they are affected by new changing perspectiv­es of modern world life. Life is more demanding, more challengin­g now. All human beings are expected to be more smart, efficient, stylish and multi tasked. All new changes not bad or harmful. The new mantra of life is constantly progressin­g and increasing one’s knowledge and efficiency.

Mom, you don’t know anything! Forget it...

This is most commonly heard in our homes by moms from teenage or young children. Mother thinks, it is we who used to teach you right from how to walk to your studies and now you are telling us this. OK, lets admit there is some ounce of truth in it. Why have we let ourselves look dumb when we are not, why have we made ourselves stagnant, stale and limited to just serving people just give over comfort and royal treatment. We should do our duties lovingly but at the same time we should also be aware of whats happening, how our world is changing. We also should not lose interest in life and be an object.

Arise, awake and enjoy

Whatever we are a mom, aunt, grandmom does not matter. Lets revive our skills, our qualities, lets learn something if needed, lets try to understand new world. Lets take interest in life, different things other than TV and dramas. We have different levels of personalit­ies and intelligen­ce. Info: Asma Shums <asmashums@gmail.com
