Mom where is dad? When will he return??

He won't return ever my darling.. He is gone.. He left us for someone else..

Then how are we going to survive?? Who will earn for us??

Who said only dads can earn.. I can do the same too.. I will earn and feed you for sure.

And who will run the house?? Who will cook and clean and wash??

Darling who said I can't multitask?? I did that before too.. I cooked I cleaned I took care of both of you and I managed the whole household.. Now why do you think I cannot go and earn and do all of these together..

But you never did that..

Because your dad never allowed me. To darling.. This society has etched certain rules for us to follow.
And we follow them blindly.. But there's no guide book that states the do's and dont's for us.. It is us who write them and follow them..

So you think you can manage both..

Yes darling I managed to go through nine months of pregnancy doing all the hard works of the household without anyone to help me.. I surely will be able to go out and earn too.. Just lende support.. That's all we women need.. Relentless support and understanding from our family.. Always remember if we have the power to create and bring a life to this world, we have all the power to do anything.. We are not weak.. The pains we bear while childbirth makes us stronger than the strongest of the male species.. We just need cognizance and support..

Mom, can I too become as strong as you are??

Yes darling you can.. We all can.. It's not me it's us.. The all of women.. LET'S BRIDGE THE GAP
