Did Malati or Toasty ask help from their mothers? If not - they need to keep silent..
Just appreciate they are no longer child and it is their wish how they want to handle it and parent's duty comes only when the child asks for help/support. They should simply let them know they are there when required and do nothing more.

That raises an interesting thought.\If parents need to shut up and not interfere when children are grown up then why does the grown up child rush back to childhood home expect to be welcomed back unconditionally unquestioning-ly. Toasty is behaving like the Chaturs now. Shouting instead of just explaining that she needs time.
Sudha is reacting in a very mom way. A lioness gets angry when her cub is attacked!!1
Why are Chaturs allowed to misbehave with Toasty family? Even Toasty didnt step in and say dont talk to my parents in this way.
Double standards - even the "modern" woman indulges in it.

agree with u. But Parina, somewhere Pashu too is responsible.In case of Malti, her mom played in such a way that Malti too felt that Pashu n family r treating her wrongly. In Toasty's case she took it as a challenge and she never allowed her Mom to interfere, which was so right.  All that malti's mom did was take digs at family. Toasty's Mom too did it but Toasty warned her each time she tried to.

Had Malti too not allowed her Mom to interfere may be things wudnt have been so worse

Preeti,
I am reading all these posts about mom this and mom that.
How come no post talks about the bad crude behaviour and attitude of Chaturs. The bahus are there to do the work but have no voice in the family. They are kind of invisible members.
Do you think that is right|? At some point any Bahu will get frustarted and speak up. Or do you say that she should just be quiet and work all the time ?
