Real life problems of middle class Indian daughters at every stage

I saw something unusual yesterday, a bright 10th pass girl, she had one goal in life . to be a Doctor. and she came from a family that was financially secure, middle class Indian family.

The unspoken pain of a Middle class Indian daughter whose dreams don’t matter

To become a doctor , she’ll have to go out of her town of course for her classes. But but but…her family doesn’t want her to stay outside the, house or go out of the town .

You know it’s not really okay for girls to stay out…… if something goes wrong , what will happen to the family’s respect and all that nonsense , I mean seriously !

( One thing is for sure: whether a girl is middle-class or not, every girl faces this problem at least once in her life. )

she really wanted to become an independent woman , but her family is not allowing her to live or study outside the town.

That girl thought , Hmm maybe I should tell this problem to my elder brother ( point to be noted) , her elder brother post-graduate, a well educated guy .

Girls’ Education in a So-Called Educated society

Her educated brother said with authority, Why go out? All knowledge will come to you at home only ! No need to step outside for studies.

It’s not that she wanted to stay in a hostel , No… she just wanted to stay with her aunt who lives in city and study there, Because the studies she can do in the city, are just not possible in the town.

I mean , look at today’s developing world -her educated brother , who himself stay in the city to study ,tells her , You can’t go out and study ! ( Is he really an educated person )

That girl kept crying and saying , trust me , please let me go out and attend my classes. let me become a doctor, I wont do anything wrong that would hurt you all .

Trust me , I just want to study and build my career, after that, you can do whatever you want .But her voice full of pain and hops , was unheard by her family members.

She belonged to a well-settled middle-class family, yet even today in our society, many girls whether rich, poor, or middle class face this issue.

It may seem small to others, but for the girls living it, it is a deeply painful reality.

Her voice is strong, her words are clear, yet no one hears her.

And just like that , her voice was completely ignored. so now what- will they just make her finish her 11th and 12th grade from nearby college ,then graduation from the same place , and finally marry her to some well-educated, employed man right?

And now ,her dream will probably remain just a dream.

whenever I share this story, people just shrug and say , “That’s nothing new , it happens to everyone. if she’s really fond of making a career ,then she should fight for it.

Maybe it’s true .

But ya, this doesn’t happen with everyone man , It only happens to girls, so…..yeah, it’s not really normal |

Perhaps feminism hasn’t fully arrived yet .
