Avni's parenting reminded me of this scene from Mahabharath, where Lord Krishna and Dronacharya talk. Krishna asks Acharya Drona as to why he did not guide his son Ashwathama on the right path and could not teach him the difference between Dharma and Adharma.
Dronacharya says that he had faced a lot of hardships in his life and wanted a comfortable life for his son. He says he loves his son too much and always wants him to be happy, successful and powerful.
Lord Krishna says that what Dronacharya has towards his son is not "Prem but Moha".
If he had just loved his son, then he would have made sure that his son walked on the path of Dharma irrespective of whether there were hardships or not. But what he has towards his son is just "Moha" and so could not differentiate between right and wrong.
Sorry I am not able to find the right english translation for the Sanskrit word "Moha".
Good parenting is not just providing food, shelter, basic necessities and love to ones children, the other main responsibility is also to guide the kids to differentiate between right and wrong and do the right thing irrespective of how tough the path is.
Did Avni do that? Agreed she loves Payal a lot, but is it love? Does loving someone not mean helping them to the right things too? Should a parent's love not guide the kids to walk the righteous path in life??
