“MY PARENTS ARE TOO OLD, SICK AND SCARED”
He also gave a suggestion to all the girls…
Girls! Your parents love you. But one day, they will be old, sick and scared. DO NOT QUIT YOUR CAREER FOR MARRIAGE.

It does not matter if you’re thirty or thirty five, do not marry, I say DO NOT MARRY a man you feel is unsuitable for you.

Let Them Work & Earn
Parents! One day, you will be old, sick and scared. Please raise your daughters as persons and not as commodity. Let them work and earn.

Teach your girls to live on their own and never depend on a man for their survival. Do not force them to marry if there is no compatibility.

Don’t Panic:
Parents! Don’t panic if your girl is in 30’s & single. Let her pursue her dreams. Don’t blackmail your girl for marriage. This isn’t love.

Teach Your Sons To respect Women:
Parents! Teach your sons to respect women. Teach them that they’re marrying a human being and they’re equals. Let your daughter-in-law work.
